French service Rafale F3R addition became “meaningless” with Mirage 2000-5F existing in Mk.2 standard already

It does this as of the last two patches, but its obviously unfinished. It updates whoever you have selected as if youre in TRK mode and doesnt jump around like the others. But, ive noticed it still requires you to scan them twice to establish this soft lock, which can be annoying. And in sensor view it doesn’t show the continous track beam, and assumebly doesn’t light up rwr as well.

Exactly adding on to my points though, it is by no means a proper aesa radar.
Yes it is better, but it is nowhere near “good enough” for an aesa standard.
But Yes I am grateful for how it performs at the moment!
But I hope gajin not rename to Rafale C F4 (F4.1) instead Rafale C F3-R in the first major update 2025
It is already C F3-R!
Just have to look at statcard 😉

Discovered this 2 AA hardpoints addition just before spawning in a game, when I realized that most of my custom loadouts disappeared and then saw the default 8 Micas loadout.
I felt like a kid during christmas for a short moment :)

Dont forget the extra countermeasures!
It tries to get an IR lock when I’m trying to lock with HMD for some damn reason and because of that, it just locks to flsres instesd of the enemy jet headoning me at 3km

The 30 flares and 110-120 chaffs already available was really enough for me but sure it’s cool also.
Yeah not good enough yet.
still waiting for the SEM’s Anemone to perform like a PESA but yeah that sucks

I am complaining about this, not IRST tracking flares. When I try to lock with radar HMD, the jet tries to get a IR lock instead of a radar lock for some unknown reason, and ends up locking the flares that the enemy is dumping which gets me killed because I my jet refuaed to try to lock with the radar.
Caused me so many deaths/missed kill oppurtunities
Out of curiosity, shouldn’t the Rafale also get the GBU-48 and GBU-50?
Rafale F4.1 it should be own vehicle from Rafale F3-R standard, battle rating 14.3 minimum
I might believe gajin ready new gen WVR missile for aircraft top tier in the third or winter major update 2025
Next month gajin decompression max BR to 14.3, and could add 6x MICA IR on Rafale C F3-R in the third or forth major update 2025
Can discuss as much as we want about splitting variants but with the way Gaijin develops it will not happen.
If that were to be the case we should have gotten all variants of Rafale up to F3-R or F4.1.
Just like how we should have gotten all Suite’s of F-15E foldered together instead of an instant and single 2015 Strike Eagle instantly.
This could be applied to so many different aircraft allowing us to have a much more wide variety and all kinds of cool, unique, and specific variants/blocks/suites/upgrades.
However, Gaijin does not work like this so no point.
I think overhauling completely into a F4.1 would be best, the aircraft seems to be 80% F4.1 anyways.

Gaijin will likely want to use F4.1 to add Meteor. Just like what they did with Sweden (JAS39A > JAS39C)

what about this?
@Kalhann Hey any updates on your bug report?
Seems that the measurement unit of the hud is actually completely imperial.
Speed should be in Knots, alt in FT as you pointed out, wp distance should be in NM.

IDK but you can make a bug report (assuming you can find sources for this)
