The AASM is ok that is GNSS and then you can turn on the laser to guide it and you can lauch it from 60Km YES
Meanwhile, grom 1 that is only guide by GNSS NOPE
Edi: I made a mistake was grom1 not grom2

Please remain on topic.
that escalated quickly
“long range” implying its on the same range class as fakour or phoenix
the fact that the “MR” in “AIM-120 AMRAAM” stands for Medium Range (which has double the range of mica)
it’s the grom 1 that got removed (minor correction)
In the dev blog it says
Despite this however, the Rafale has just 2 missiles for short range engagements — already well-known to French pilots, the Matra R550 Magic 2.
Does this mean the rafale will have 8 aam or will it only keep 6 as the wording of the dev blog was confusing.
2x magic 2 on the wingtip so 6 missiles total
Ok as im currently stumped as i am not that good so i will probably stick to using the mirage 2000-5F to have better chances at getting kills as i would rather have 8 aam than 6.
the canards can only work as an airbrake on the ground… in the air they kind of… control the aircraft hahaha
they don’t look at how a rafale fly during an air show, the canards almost don’t moove it is the elevons who do all the work
sorry but you no they are use as airbrake with the elevons
the source is a interview of Dassault engineer who was working on the rafale and you have a picture of this in the video
What? No
Just like @Hardy-1 said and provided with the video.
Raf has an airbrake just like the F-22 and F-35 does, the airbrake works by pushing the front of canards straight up in a variable way, so the pilot can choose to what extent the canards get pushed up as the button is a hard slider on the throttle just like in the F-15E.
Where Indian Rafale?
5th generation infrared Air-to-Air Missile coming to fighter aircraft top tier sometime 2025, maybe
But new generation infrared Air-to-Air Missile for attack aircraft before fighter aircraft
MICA IR to replace Magic II after decompressed max battle rating 14.3
why, just to make them the new meta, to be able to make cas in ground and dominate Air battle in 1 vehicle?
you surely know how skill diversity and capabilty balance works
I’d like to see newer aircraft for the more advanced missiles, and a missile test like last time.
They obviously need to overhaul flares a bit first.
Let the Frenchies enjoy their toy for a couple updates before spreading it like cooties
already done the flares upgrade is already accepted
accepted does not mean done
