Dassault Rafale - Variants, Characteristics, Armament and Performance


These curves are freely accessible in SAFRAN’s archives. The devs should have them

Again, uninstalled thrust values. If the thrust is not around 9% less than what is shown the installed thrust is too high already

Little nose camera thingo no longer swaps to target locked with radar or irst. It’s pretty annoying.

Prior, would at least sometimes work. Now never work.

Has anyone have the information about RWR’s Band Coverage?

Im kinda surprised that current Rafale still cant detect K Band lock unlike EFT, considering how advanced Rafale’s sensors are i believe it should be able to detect K Band.

out of curiosity, has to be 9%? can be something less or more?

You don’t want more thrust efficiency loss on an aircraft.
The higher the number the lower your thrust is going to be.

Less is maybe possible don’t know tho.

not what i asked i think

what i want to know is if the air intake loss is always around 9-10% or if there are cases when it’s lower (or higher)

F22 or f35 should have higher thrust efficiency loss due to the s-ducts.
They had to sacrifice alot of flight performance for stealth.

Rafale also has S ducts btw. Which is why the current loss figure seems fair.

does anyone know how to use Rafale’s arrest hook ? I couldn’t get it to deploy in custom battles

Are building KAI Boramae KF-21

  1. They’re about 25 years behind
  2. They are still using slam eagles and they like them

Hey all, eurofighter pilot here.

I’d just like to mention that I struggle IMMENSELY against Rafale specifically. And that is a good thing because it keeps Eurofighters in check.
A jet with almost the same flight parameters and capabilities as mine, but with 8 MICA’s that I consider the best ARH in the game. (The only ARH that I struggle with defending, I die to it 9 out of 10 times even trying to notch it)

So nice going Frenchbros, for getting one of (possibly the ) best top tier aircraft in game!

It is not working yet

Thats why F22 has insane engines to compensate channel looses.

F22’s flight model is still one of the best, if not the best.

We work together to keep the F-15E Menace in check!

It’s funny to me how much a 1970s airframe modified to be basically a tactical bomber with 1990s avionics and weapons has affected top tier, to the point where a 2000s airframe in its 2018 version was considered to be justified to fight it

2010s*

It doesn’t have its AESA radar, and JHMCS is from early 2000s

Everything is 1990s except for the JHMCS, considering that iirc Rafale in game didn’t have HMD irl, it’s fine to overlook

Engines that weren’t used by F-15Es in America for quite a while too
