By the way am I the only one who noticed that the Rafale lacks its 1250L furl tanks? I don’t have it but I assume having the option of smaller, more aerodynamic tanks could be useful (these tanks also look much better than the 2000L ones imo)
Has been reported, but nothing so far.

Gaijin’s official stance is that the priority is giving everything at least 1 tank and so aircraft with an existing tank are unlikely to get a second tank anytime soon. This is perticularly annoying for something like the F-4s that would really benefit from wing tanks, but alas we’ll have to wait. (heck, they wont even C&P existing tanks onto aircraft, like the 495 gal tank on the F3 Late)

That makes sense but at the same time why didn’t they add these when they added the planes? Like, why wait until you have a ton of accumulated work instead of preventing the lack in the first place
Yeah. It is a good question
What do you hope to see fixed on the Rafale for this upcoming dev-server? Especially in light of Rafale being moved up to 14.3 and other competitors potentially coming into the game.
- Reduced empty weight
- SPECTRA rework (greater accuracy and awareness, fixed deployment)
- Radar rework (tracking through multiple modes, air to surface, etc)
- Decreased radar/infrared signature ahead of 5th gen addition
- MICA rework
- Engine responsiveness (quicker take-off from airfield)

MICA Rework, so the Rafale can benefit my Mirage 2000 and one day F2000

Nah its a 1 choice poll. Sadge.
+1 weight reduction. Enhance all FM.
+1 to SPECTRA change.
+1 to MICA whole remodeling because the missile is wrong.

I want to vote for like, three things but empty weight reduction and SPECTRA rework/fix are my top two bugbears.
Rarely have to mess with the MAW on the EF2000 but every match on the Rafale starts with me turning it off so it doesn’t start spamming flare and chaff when my team start their missile volley. Annoying.

Why is giving it realistic levels of specific excess power or realistic levels of drag not on this list?

Because for all I know, and its been said multiple times, unless Gaijin fixes their whole game these are stuff that are impossible to act upon but you still don’t want to understand it.
Now my turn to ask questions.
Why should we sacrifice our realistic supercruise values just for you to be happy about SEP and drag that are thing that are inherently messed up due to how things are coded in WT?

there’s no way any of the delta canards sustain energy like they do right now

Prove it.
Because most games last less than even a 30 percent value of fuel and forcing game engine into meeting singular supercruise requirement skews the whole entire flight model.
I don’t see how you guys keep asking for nothing but buffs when the plane is basically like playing the game on easy mode as it is.
Seriously I use it in RB and just flying one handed and it’s even easier than peak Gripen was.

The things on the list are things we know to be reported/accepted.
And what is the issue? At a time playing US or USSR was activating WT easy mode and you didn’t complain a single bit at the time. Weird.
that’s a whole rabbit hole that I don’t really want to go into, but for something like eurofighter, you can just go through the requirements, and then see that literally only one of them was actually confirmed to be met. Rafale, I don’t know enough about it to conclusively say anything on it
oh come on, he used to be very out spoken on the 16 vs 29 dynamic a long time ago.
Oh my bad I should just be okay with all that because he is a compulsive hater my bad. It’s even worse if he complains all the time.
Who told you this?
