Mach 1.6 = 1960km/h : at such velocity : the F-16 is on Top, see last Graph.
Rafale is the highest at 1960
i think you may be right but where did u get this info ? can u provide a source for this claim ?.
that’s cus they didn’t perform SEAD and guess what india informed pakistan that they were going to conduct a surgical strike on those terror camps in advance. (kinda dumb to assume that pak wouldn’t retaliate after what happened in 2019)
I don’t remember the exact sources, I’ll try to find them when I’m back home. But yeah India doesn’t have any meteors

i think they have them in limited numbers. (very few ?)
Idk, but anyway that wouldn’t be enough for Rafales to maintain air superiority against J-10s and JF-17s armed with PL-15s. That was a huge blunder to send Rafales to combat without Meteors
Why would you buy a eurocanard and then not buy its best missile? (Egypt moment)

We’re talking about India in here…
I mean you would assume they bought meteors no? I remember seeing mica remains, but if they have meteors why would they not use them
I would expect them to do dumb moves which they already did against Pakistan, i dont expect any smart move from them.
They bought them but either didn’t receive them or didn’t deploy them to frontline properly
But it is known that they bought 250 meteors
Are India's Rafale fighters missing their punch?.
says 250 Meteor missiles have been bought by India.
Operation Sindoor: Weapons used by India on Rafale jets to hit Pakistan terror camps - India Today.
tends to confirm that Rafale weren’t using Meteor, in the last aerial clash with Pakistan, but AASM’s and SCALP missiles instead.
but anyway,… Indian officials said about intelligence errors were the reason why Rafale went down, as they didn’t expected to see a Chinese PL-15 in PAF, but PL-15E (which have a reduced range)
the 2nd link is from a news channel. not a valid source of info.
both are,… but please show me primary sources then. :P
India has indeed ordered meteors, but haven’t recieved them yet, essentially they don’t have it rn.
What’s my source? Give me a single pic of a Indian rafale with meteors, except the one taken in France with inert french meteors.
