From: adrian@math.arizona.edu (Adrian Jones) I recently read the more expensive fighter of the incoming new generation is going to be the french RAFALE. Dassault Industries gives an estimated cost of 250-320 million of french franc for a standard plane, which may be converted to a fork of 40-50 millions of US $. Can anyone confirm ? They said french army would never send a such expensive plane on combat mission. They wouldn't risk 50 million $ to be distroyed, even by a one-million $ rocket. ARIZONA JONES
