yeah
one thing i wish we had was animated flight and speed stick in the cockpit, afaik its static and doesnt react to your inputs, no?
news leading to politic discussion then leading to flags or ban.
I’ve Seen in other threads where people posted equipment wrecks, without discussing anything else. Still I’d prefer not take the risk.
they are animated
I’ll just reiterate what I’ve previously said. I understand that this is related to the Rafale but the potential of it becoming a political discussion is simply too high, as we’ve seen in this thread a couple of days ago.
A general heads-up when it comes to these kind of situations… misinformation is quite easy to run by. Please do take everything with a grain of salt until there is official confirmation by respected and official institutes.

Things like the Rafale and EFT are still war machines, not invincible wonderweapons.

Things happen. Could be lack of proper maintenance, I’ve heard IAF has had issues with tthat
Hey dont bring Typhoon into this. :P
I was interested as French pilots use the SPECTRA system to enter and manage areas with IADS

The reason why you don’t see anyone showing hostility or choosing sides… is that we’ve already hidden those messages. We don’t talk or act out of thin air.

That is fair
It just seems since the event in the East the censorship has gone to another level on the forums.
While in game it is ignored including iconography/flags etc.
From this threads point of view having real life data on a weapon system or airframe will create discussion points. It is a real shame that we can reference the Gulf War, Syria/Libya campaigns but not what is currently happening.
In any forum you will always have bad actors and we are all arbitrarily punished for the mindless rants of the few.
Interesting to see if they will go through with this or cancel / alter the order
I don’t know if they really have any other choice if they cancel the orders. Russian aircrafts are under sanctions so they can’t buy Russian. They need a naval aircraft to replace their naval Mig-29s, and they already have assessed the Super Hornet against the Rafale three times now (MMRCA, MMRCA 2.0, and Naval competition), so they’re familiar with the performance of the Super Hornet.
id love to see the rafale M in game at some point, idk i love naval aircrafts and a nice conclusion after the super etendard

It’s also basically admitting an inadequacy in your air force if your new primary plane gets cancelled
India didn’t sanction Russia correct. The US sanctioned Russian defence industry though which led to Egypt canceling Su-35 orders for example. Egypt risks U.S. sanctions over Russian fighter jet deal: U.S. official | Reuters
Pretty sure they’re already trying to develop their own 5th gen, I’m not exactly sure. But would be funny if the US sells India some F-35s even though India has S-400s when they canceled the F-35 orders for Turkey due to them purchasing S-400s as a concern.
Egypt: I consent.
Russia: I consent.
Uncle Sam: Isnt there someone you forgot to ask?

it’s not something like deflector shield that keeps every attack away.
SPECTRA system is not so advanced now, many other planes also have similar system(including J-10CE I think)
and the aesa seeker with digital backend have the ability of cheating rwr and ecm system
I mean, it’s a relatively newer missile with more latest tech.

Especially when you already have access to the plane to study it and its systems
