Dassault Rafale - Variants, Characteristics, Armament and Performance

currently even the Mirages perform better at low speeds than Rafale

I would be entirely comfortable wagering a brick performs better than rafale at low speed presently.

Guys i do have a question, The Rafale C Model as far as i can tell has 14 Hard points. and the Rafale M Model has 13, so why in game are we met with 11 hard points? Am i missing some information somewhere?

The 14 points are proposed by Dassault for the F3R, the French army decided to buy the plane with only 12 hardpoints (removal of the additional missile hardpoints under the wings), that is why we have the plane as it is, the hardpoint corresponds to what is and has been used by the French army

does rafale M have wing hardpoints for the missiles?

The only difference in payload between the Rafale M and the Rafale C is that the M version loses one of its ventral payloads (the Rafale C has two), however the French army only uses one of the two ventral payloads so the two aircraft are identical in terms of payload.

EDIT: I have a doubt about the point that the Rafale M loses, I don’t remember if it is a central hardpoint or a front central hardpoint

I would assume whichever one they have the AASM 1000 mounted to ordinarily would be the one kept. Just easier logistically to keep that one.

Probably

I hope they fix it…

I made a report about that same issue on the EFT on the dev server and it got fixed.
[DEV] Eurofighter Stock Loadout position should be changed

Kinda hilarious that nobody thought to check if the same issue is on the other big jet addition of the update.

EFT is the favourite child of the update, so I am not remotely surprised.

With every update they make the same mistake, for the F-15 it was the same, same for the F-16…

Its not mistake… its to force you to pay.

I think that for this problem it is really just a mistake that they make every time, if it was really to make people pay they would not correct it

doesn’t change the fact that Rafale’s FM got nerfed while EF’s got buffed

i just unlocked AASM IR, and it couldnt let me fire above mach 1.01 on the 2000d rmv

Wait for the hotfix to be live.
