Given that France has just cancelled its joint effort with Germany to produce a 5th gen jet because the French wanted greater control, I don't really see why they would give full ToT to India, which is a less important country to them than a very close ally like Germany.

You cannot apply real world geopolitical logic to India. India is special -- because every Indian believes it -- so France will just give it to them! If you believe and wish hard enough, miracles can happen.

French jet engine maker Safran is ready for 100% technology transfer of a jet engine to India for powering the latter’s fifth-generation stealth fighter aircraft, a senior Indian official said on January 26.

Indian Ambassador to France, Jawed Ashraf, said Safran was willing to transfer technology. Ashraf was addressing the media on January 26 during the state visit of French President Emmanual Macron to India to join the annual Republic Day parade in New Delhi.

Last weak I was being laughed at on the sheer idea of a Safran-JV and ToT.
We have Agence France-Presse mentioned as source on this now.

Sorry again, this news is nonsense and the source - aka Eurasiantimes - is nonsnese!

Yes, France will provide some sort of ToT but surely never ever their latest understanding ...

Well it might not be nonsense, since according to Indians, they themselves and everyone else seems to be READY to do all sorts of things all the time but never actually do it.
