Indonesia is reportedly reviewing its $8.1 billion 42 Rafale fighter jet deal after claims that three Indian Rafales were downed by Pakistani J-10Cs on May 7.
Indonesian defense officials are claimed to be quietly reassessing the jets’ operational credibility.
No formal changes to the deal have been announced, and deliveries are still expected in early 2026.
However, the rumors have sparked concern within Indonesia’s defense circles, given the strategic weight of the Rafale in its air force modernization.
