Dassault Rafale - Variants, Characteristics, Armament and Performance

I cant even anymore, I know this the Rafale group and I’m happy for you.

But god damn each update the Rafale goes from a 10/10 to an 11/10 or a 12/10.

C’est la vie!

Maybe when the F-22 is added they will work on the Gripen and Typhoon who knows

  1. it isnt fired through the IRST
  2. why is only the rafale allowed to have that feature

When MICA was fired Radar was on IRST mode.

Second you should ask this question to devs, as im not the one who make those decisions.

It is clearly fired in trk mem, and from what i remember there is also a bug making it so eurofighter can launch amram with irst, maybe same for other plane i don’t know.

The SU30SM with the r-77-1 should also have it AFAIK, and the Mirage 2000-5F as well
It’s not plane specific, it’s missile specific. As to why only those 2 have it, it’s because both were reported to be missing such capabilities.
I’ve heard that the AIM120C-5 apparently should also have it, but I’m not sure it was actually reported

Even if it gets it, it will never be used because AMRAAM can’t turn.

Look closely, I use IRST first because it has a 90 degree gimbal limit, then I toggle to my radar, which switches to TRK MEM because the target is beyond the gimbal limit, but I can launch a MICA anyway.

Doesnt matter since radar will try to use most suitable mode in order to fire MICA in that situation, just like it does in real life.

The radar can always guide the MICA in whatever mode it can uses to track a target. The IRST in game however can not do that. He is just using the larger gimbal limit of the IRST to get a memory track with the radar which in turn can guide the MICA. It’s still not working like it does IRL, that was the point

Anyway when can we get our unique pilot model, since only Rafale lacks its real life pilot model I believe it’s time for us to receive proper pilot model with Scorpion HMD.

Should i make another report @Smin1080p_WT ?

Rafale ECE 1/30 30-SK has been designated as a demonstration aircraft for Rafale F5

Just for clarification ECE 1/30 ( Escadron de chasse et d’expérimentation = Experimental fighter Squadron ) is part of the 30-SK ( 30th fighter wing ) hence the 1/30 ( 1st squadron of the 30th fighter wing ). The specific Rafale number is 362. It is normal that future demonstrators come from this squadron since it’s their ‘‘raison d’être’’ .

Man… We still cant get our unique pilot model despite EFT already have it.

Sad Scorpion HMD noises…

This is true one of the few things Gaijin got right with Typhoon :)

Id take the seventeen trillion buffs and no accurate pilot model over the seventeen trillion nerfs with the correct pilot model any day
