Dassault Rafale - Variants, Characteristics, Armament and Performance

i mean it’s still in progress we will maybe see some changes , same goes for the counter measures … 32 is not realistic

False it can only come with 6 120B and 2 9Ms otherwise it’s 4 120 + 6 9Ms

6 amraams, bug report for 8 got shot down with not a bug within seconds of being posted.
Still significantly better than what rafale offers, platform included.

I saw 32 CM + 112 chaff in the stream though ? Unless I missed something. It might also gets additional CMs with the MAW research like on the S5.

I stand corrected

Still a big downgrade from the 5F

Any info about the actual countermeasure size rather than with current WIP countermeasure size?

5F should lose the 8 missile capability. Also remember Rafale is still way more potent than Gripen and J10A or Mirage 2000s or F16 and F15 except F15E. Legit Rafale and Typhoon will be the 2 best planes of the game until planes with TVC nozzle engines get added.

So it is confirmed as F3-R, meaning we have AESA 1000%. SWEET Guys! Congratulations to all Raf enthusiasts!

False it’s a mix from various all F3 variants and it is possible we never see AESA before Rafale F4. According to what RU devstream showed we have the PESA because the radar locck range is something like 160km and angle of search is 120° while AESA should have lock range above 180 or 200 kms and 140° of search cone.

This.

Fixing what’s broken is more futureproof than going in an arms race with MICA IRs, Meteors or an impossible amount of missiles.

Yea, reality



Whats confusing; X-Ray says PESA, TT says F.3, this now says F.3R

I honestly don’t know what to believe now >_>

Isn’t bvvd a lead dev? If he himself says AESA I’d assume it’s true and whatever doesn’t match up is WIP

I mean if in the detailled information they put f3.r for me it means it is f3.r, they could have only put rafale as name when you don’t hover it and so aesa make sense.

Don’t believe anything. Its war thunder, some people believed in 8 amraam typhoon with proof. Well… Its 6.

I believe Mike said AESA, and something along the lines of WORK IN PROGRESS

And if its still PESA, we’ll report the living hell out of it
