Considering France’s glass ceiling is the USA in War Thunder, I imagine we will have to wait for Growler to be implemented for the Devs to even consider giving that feature to the Rafale …

well of course, electronic warfare mechanics will most probably come in a ew themed update that will have the growler and prowler as main vehicles… Though considering the very low teamwork consciousness of players they’ll probably prefer the more selfish electronic warfare of the Rafale and Flankers over the Growler, which can protect its teammates but can’t do anything other than sead.

I just wanted to thank Gigachad… I mean @DirectSupport for his reports, as well as everyone that helped him make them.
In today’s news, these bug reports are getting implemented for next major update :

You can already try them for yourself in the dev server

That means it will also have higher top speed on sea level.

Based on my calculations it will reach 1482km on deck.

Adding five percent bonus will allow to reach 1500+ on deck.

Bug report indicates Maximum speed should be 800knots.

Current Live server top speed is 750 knot which is 1389km, increased rip speed gives us current structure limit aka 1458km.

With 5 percent speed bonus it will be able to reach 1556 km on deck.

So yes when changes happens Rafale will become faster on deck.

@WreckingAres283 brought it to my attention today, targeting pods now have a laser range of 30km. Just tested it and it’s true.

Good news for the Rafale especially so that when they eventually implement the ability to fire MICA EM/IR through the TV sensor, you can do it at 30km as opposed to 20km.

If they dont change it before the patch drops it should be reported again.
