That doesn’t make sense because that would be a pre-requisite to being able to purchase the plane in the first place. Regardless, not the topic for that discussion.
Well, it does make pretty much sense since there were leaks showing the political pressure made by US on those decision makers. It’s very well documented.
But yes, off-topic.

Rafale can’t ever fly M1.4 without the burner.
It’s legit one of the selling point of the plane. Also this :
This isn’t a good source unfortunately
Still even if the source is not 100% reliable in game you can’t go above Mach 1.18(9000m) while full clean + low fuel. This is abnormal.
The issue is the speed limit from what i have heard
it’s unsettling how many CCs i see playing the rafale with full fuel + at least 2 fuel tanks underwing… it seems they don’t even know how to play that jet, and they aren’t stock so idk… maybe they GEd all the way in
btw 15’ of fuel? is it viable? i’m not safe bringing less than 20 lmao
I always carry full fuel on top tier jets for when I need to use full afterburner, however after seeing how fuel efficient the Typhoon is, I’m starting to doubt whether I need it.
typhoon and rafale are so much fuel efficient. the way they manage their autonomy is a lot similar to the gripen atm so the ideal setting (at least for me) it’s 20 + tank in RB, 30min in SIM without tank
the HMD is not live (because gajin forgot to put it on the plane) but its IR lock symbology
From 2021, they are outselling even F-35.
Rafale exports from 2021 are nearly double of F-35. Its beating everything thats not F35 outside of NATO. And only reason why its not higher, is dassault not being able to build them fast enough. They literally cant keep up with demand. European countries being d*mb and relying on unreliable US is another thing.
After todays update I can see what happened; the Rafale had the A-10Cs JHMCS as placeholder, now receiving its own.
does it still have iff on the hmd?
it actually didnt, it new one forked from a-10c but not put on rafale
on dev it actually has it now, its just circle and double circle
Wait shouldn’t A-10 have scorpion HMD though? So it should’ve been fine if they used the same one with different symbology but they used the wrong helmet?
It has Scorpion as far as I can tell, its just called a10c_hmd or smth like that in the files.
It only seems to add one-two circles to locked largets, as seen on pictures posted.
Also going to report the missing coloring of the OFS.

my bad, just got a bit confused when you said JHMCS (its a different HMD)
Dassault pulled this off on one Airshow only and never again, since.
There’s a reason for that. Ask Dassault how was Rafale supercruising in Leh, during Indian trials. :D
You can publicly lie for only so long…
Anything about target in stt, TWS track… DLZ symbology?? I dont believe that fighter HMD lacks such important information.
