India Turns Down American Fighter Jets, Buys From France 600
An anonymous reader writes "While America had offered the F-16, F-18 and now the stealth F-35 fighter, India picked for its new multi-role attack jet a low cost, older French plane. Why? For one, it's cheaper, and two, if American/Indian relations go bad, can they get the parts and equipment to keep the planes in the air? It seems prudence beat out the latest in technology."

Wow, that's like mormon-baptizing their atheist father-in-law after he's been dead for some time.
Way to go, Romney!

Especially when it comes to apostrophes. Always better to have too many than too few.
