Dassault Rafale - Variants, Characteristics, Armament and Performance

lol, we can only dream… france having competetive ammount of missiles?

The current rafale should be 13.7 like the Gripen. Unless they give it more missiles… I don’t see the point in grinding it when you have the mirage 5F with a not much worse FM and more missiles and still plenty of countermeasures (single drop iirc).

Preferably the top BR should be 14.3 at least, so we could balance things better and leave some breathing room to lower BR’s. This way we could leave the rafale and most 13.7’s in 14.0

Soooo why are there no camouflages for the Rafale?? There’s so many to choose from and they put in none? Honestly sad.

certainly, even if they make correct aesa, its still not 14.0 material… especially with gimped mica and F15E/EF2000 at same BR…

The EF hasn’t received camos either yet, tho Smin confirmed that the EF will get some “a couple days after the update”. They’re also already in the game files. No idea if there also rafale camos in the files already

At least the Community Manager (thanks again @Smin1080p_WT ) gives a response with details about the problem and what is needed to fix it, not like the “Bug Reporting Manager” who apparently prefers to ban than seriously respond to player problem requests xD.

And what’s more, all my current bug tickets have been closed with the same message…

but hey we like them gaijin, but sometimes I wonder what’s the point of wanting to get involved in the game

uh

What does it cost them to admit that they don’t want to add 2 more MICA for game balancing xD

They gave the Rafale an HMD it shouldnt have and its about 300kph too fast on the deck atm. You should stop complaining so much.

Edit: looks like the deck speed was fixed, my bad

It has nothing to do with balancing, posting random pictures doesn’t prove a capability that was officially added with a later standard.

tbf they could’ve simply went with export config to give it 2 extra pylons

You’ll note, they don’t acknowledge the fact that EFT is outperforming Rafale in ways it really oughtn’t to. After all, it’s only Rafale receiving favouritism in the form of a HMD it trialed.

This doesn’t work as an excuse anymore theres already been plenty of vehicles that have come to the game using munitions they’ve received from a certain year and then get retroactively given newer weapons from a more recent year like the Gripen the initial production Gripen C from the 90s couldn’t use the SDB/GBU-39 yet it was given these glide bombs which would make the aircraft a later standard from the late 2000s

There should be no issue giving the rafale a few extra missiles

Gripen C is not held to the MS standards. They would essentially have had to have added 4 or so different Gripen Cs. Instead, it is assumed to be able to receive the ordnance of the latest standard, if the weapon is in game.

Rafale F3R dictates the standard it is representative of.

EFT instantaneous turn rate is overperforming, ingame it can reach as high as 36 degrees per second.
The highest figure that I’ve seen anywhere for the Rafale is 35 degrees per second for ITR.
The EFT is well-established to perform worse than the Rafale in ITR.

Then change the name besides we still have vehicles in game whose designation doesn’t fit what munitions they carry
