TLDW? From what I gathered from the comments, it's about the wiring that is incompatible with all of the planned upgrades, thus the F4.1 and F4.2 variants, depending on whether we're talking about F1-3 versions upgraded to F4 or newly-built F4 with the upgraded wiring. For this issue, the French Air Force tends to sell used Duckies to other countries and use the money to replace them with newly-built ones at a lower cost.
 
I think the wire per se being incompatible is a bit strange. More like need a new data-bus that uses fiber optics because uses/can process a lot more bandwidth.
