However India has also awarded the US a contract for 10 C-17 Globemaster III airlift planes to maintain a strategic balance in its air capability inventory. Commentary FOLLOWING THE recent announcement that India will be selecting European fighters for its US$10 billion contract for 126 Medium Multi-Role Combat Aircraft (MMRCA), New Delhi has also stated that it will be awarding the United States a US$5.8 billion contract for 10 C-17 Globemaster III Strategic Airlift aircraft. This move is seen as a bid to assuage the hurt felt by the Americans as India thinks it important to keep relations with the US sweet, given the strategic fluidity of the Asian region. While the MMRCA deal delighted the Europeans, it dismayed the Russian, American and Swedish contenders.

Why Did Poland Choose the F-16? Col
Why Did Poland Choose The F-16? Col. Barre R. Seguin ∗ Abstract This essay provides a comprehensive synthesis of the Polish military’s fighter aircraft se- lection process, assesses the dominant issues, and answers the question, “Why did Poland choose the F-16?” It begins with a brief examination of Poland’s military aircraft status and military aircraft industrial production capability from approximately 1990 to 2002, its requirements for an advanced fighter aircraft, and Poland’s military hardware procurement and acquisition processes. Analysis then turns to acquisition reforms associated with the F- 16 decision, the institutional structure for purchasing military aircraft, the mechanics of the F-16 decision, and who ultimately made the decision. Given the centrality to the decision process, a capabilities comparison of the three competitors—the Lockheed Martin F-16, Saab/BAE Systems JAS-39 Gripen, and the Dassault Mirage 2000-5 Mk II—is offered and interoperability considerations addressed. This study then outlines the financial con- struction of the three bids, to include economic issues and pressures from the U.S., French, and Swedish governments and industry, and an in-depth analysis of industrial offsets. Lastly, it will examine political issues associated with the F-16 purchase. Keywords: Poland; Lockheed Martin F-16; Saab/BAE Systems JAS-39 Gripen; Dassault Mirage 2000-5 Mk II; acquisition; technical comparison; financing; offset; U.S.-Polish re- lationship; fighter competition Introduction On 27 December 2002, Poland’s Minister of Defense Jerzy Szmajdzinski announced Po- land’s decision to purchase forty-eight state-of-the art F-16 fighter aircraft from the U.S.
