I was wondering something about the AESA radar, at the moment the radar is still sweeping from left to right like the older radar.

But if i understand right how a AESA works, it should not work like that right? It should send waves in all directions?

For now the radar is not the AESA variant

@WaretaGarasu Is there any hope of seeing changes to the Rafale’s electro-optical and thermal system ?

but at minimum it should be PESA, correct?

At a minimum it will have the PESA radar (RBE2) but a report has been made and sent to the devs for the AESA radar (RBE2 AA)

Why IRIS-T when MICA-IR?

Some folk are unaware of the scariness of mica

Great, that will make it fun when MICA-IR would be Datalink launched at 60km range ^^"

according too some silly people the next gen of ARH should be added. cant wait for those people to figure out what a Meteor is.

To be fair, we could receive next gen ARH.

But Sweden, France, and Britain would be dominating more so. I’d have fun smiting yanks.

and you cant have that, usa has to be #1

Alright but PESA should be the same right?

But I want be #1 😿

8 unhistorical MICAs? C’mon guys, 6 ungimped MICAs is better than 8 Gimped ones that aren’t even real.

We need to get it together with the people who keep doing this

I fully understand the thought behind but, for the sake of gameplay i still hope it get 8 MICA.
Is it a fully fictional loadout tho ? No because as its shown in multiple, the SAME aircraft version can carry the 8 mica loadout (indian one)
Sure its not the French army F3R, but should we really limit ourselves to that ? its not like the 8 aam loadout on the 2K5F is realistic at all (and the a2g loadout on it too).
And do you really believe they would fix the MICA EM performance just because the poor Rafale only has 6 of it ? Look how they nerfed the grippen (and it only has 6 missiles too). The poor MICA performance are due to the game limitation with thrust vectoring AAM. (sure the the larger size does not help the drag too).
If we stand with your pov, then no fictional loadout like Yak141 or M2k5f, nor the ones on the M4K.

Yes, the radar currently on the dev server is the PESA (with a few minor changes), the main change to be made currently concerns the optronic system which does not correspond at all to what is announced by certain sources

Lots of ways to fix it. It’s not a hard limitation.
