It is seldom a straight line flight route because of over land flight restrictions by other countries. Refueling frequency is also not your typical petrol stops as contingency planning requires sufficient on board fuel to divert to a friendly land base in case of emergency.
On a separate note, the hype begins with the imminent induction of the Rafale.

A word of caution. Please don't read the article if you cannot handle the bluster.
Actually these hyping scares me.
According to this
It claimed that Modi almost declared a full-scale war on Doklam based on "hyping" of India-US Logistics Exchange Memorandum of Agreement but prevented by lack of arms stockpiles.
Now with the arrival of Rafale and recently Quad navy exercise, I am not even sure what's on his mind anymore.

LOL Good luck to the Europeans! FGFA, AMCA, and now interest in FCAS. Them Indians be rich. Oh wait. Ahh well they want to be milked and their leaders want to clip a few tickets.
Ugh, remind of the days of how people on the internet brainstorm ways of how J-8II and a handful of Su-27SK is going to beat the F22 raptor or how in Early development of F-35, people claim how Su-35 would smack the shit out of F-35.

NEW OR USED?
Western countries are hoodwinking developing countries with overpriced weapons systems. This is the paint job on a supposedly brand new French Dassault Rafale fighter for the Indian Air Force on their arrival in India. Each aircraft has been sold by France to India at a package price of $242 million. The other theory is that this first batch of 5 Rafales for India are second-hand ex-French Air Force aircraft.
