Dassault Rafale - Variants, Characteristics, Armament and Performance

? they bought enough rafale for dassault to open an assembly line of Rafale directly in India.

They are enough commited to it.

Do they produce all the parts or final assembly?

It is the chosen Naval aircraft for the IAF

the hell this has to do with warthunder

Its rafale thread and its kinda about rafale?

damn, the curse of as30l is even on the rafale

Oh hell, kids man

You can’t that’s a game feature.

Rafale should have an RCS of 0.01m^2

Cables have weights, why would AdAE fly with unnecessary weight?

A software, and by extension the Machine-Human Interface that is shown as proof, is only made out of datas, which don’t weight anything more on the aircraft.

But anyway,… i see people don’t understand simple physics and Software/Hardware applications.

good luck on that…

doesnt answer my question

No proponent of 6 MICAs has said that here

What I, and many others have said is that we want to play the Rafale, not some plane made up in the mind of a Gaijin employee that looks like the Rafale. I want to be able to go to an air show or museum to see an aircraft and then go back to war thunder to play as said aircraft in its real form to the limit of game balance. I won’t ask for Meteors, but I will ask for a plane that actually existed.

because it is, you should never need those against sidewinders because those missiles were never the problem (they are way worse then all the other missiles in turn performance)

Hell even in SRE which is a lot more reliant on those angles its literally the same loadout you run with other planes (most recently j10)

32 Large flares should be taken all day everyday. People overflare in this game a lot and that makes them flare even more because they do not understand

You can already do that. You’re not forced to take the extra MICAs; they’re entirely optional. The countermeasure thing should be an optional thing, but the only reason to complain about the eight MICA loadout now is if you don’t want other people to have them.

Lol, the Rafale is an omnirole fighter designed to be highly modular. Not installing a third cable on every airframe would limit its flexibility, especially in combat scenarios where the additional pylon might be needed. I’m sure the cable is installed because of the current global conflicts, and it’s not just a “numeric feature.”. I know my france we are smart.

Displaying an inoperable pylon in the software would be a significant design oversight, especially in a combat aircraft where situational awareness is critical. Military avionics systems typically only show configurations that the aircraft can actually support. Considering the time required for maintenance and installation of a “cable” and the minimal impact of added weight, it’s obvious that the cables are already in place.

The fact that a fighter designed to be omnirole wouldn’t lack its 13th and 14th pylons is obvious.
But yeah anyway as how you think that approx : 3kg every extra cable pylon would ruin the simple physics and software/hardware application i think i don’t need to debate with you because you think i’m “d*mb”

Good thing you can. Every single late F3 is what you have ingame, just without purchased pylons and HMDs. Internally, they are pretty much same thing.

Just delete the Mirage 2000C-S5, it’s the same as the Mirage 2000-5F just without some pylons and a few different avionics.

Same with the F-15A, just play the F-15C bro

lol

Why do we need AS-30L on it again?

Are you intentionally forgetting that Dassault made Rafale with 8 micas and french just didnt choose this option? Its obviously not made up by Gaijin, it existed irl
