As you can see Rafale even has the advantage at high speed while also being capable of pulling higher g-loads and attain a higher AOA.
By the time you reach ideal rate speeds for Eurofighter Rafale might be in such a dominant position already that it does not matter how many degrees a second you turn.
As I said previously that is ignoring missiles altogether. If you include them Rafale will be much more dominant in the current state of affairs.
You should heed your own advice.
thats at mach 1.
who tf yould dogfight at those speeds everything behind the yellow line isnt sustainable because your pilot is permanent blacked out
thats if you let the rafale, you can fly in a way where it is very bad for a rafale to pull aoa
same goes for Mig-29 vs F-16 irl and the Mig-29 didnt just win because it is able to pull aoa
all i see is that you never did one on one dogfights
different jets different playstyles, gaijin obviously wont add a jet which reigns over all other in all aspects
Most of the time, unless you get a perfect merge at low altitude, Rafael generally wins because you can just turn manual controls on and pull 16gs at like Mach .9, get behind eurobomber and fire off micas. And this assuming even fuel loads, because generally Rafael has easier fuel management due to the obscene amount of fuel it can carry in its fuel tanks, so a lot of the time Rafael will also be lighter.
22gs pulling in the raffle is nonsense, the g marker in the hud is wrong. Only planes I’ve seen pull that much was dev eurobomber and b239
Well I usually enter a dogfight at those speeds in game at this Br.
I never enter a dogfight in bad situatikns in a random match amyway if I can help it.
You make an exhausting case of “muh Eurofighter > STR than Rafale below Mach 1, Eurofighter is better in a dogfight”.
When you say “you can fly in a way where it is very bad for a rafale to pull aoa” I will just say you can fly in a way where it is very bad for Eurofighter.not to pull aoa.
Rafale reigns supreme outside of obscure situations at the moment.
you are not going to stay above mach 1 in a dogfight
You wont even need manual. Just hold S till you gain position, then.you manage your energy a bit et voilà.
I’m not saying that but I am likely to gain the advantage before we go below Mach 1…
Which is quite the deceisive thing to do, easily negating any STR disadvantages.
so it is like f-16 vs f-18 irl whoever is the one that exploits his jets advanteges better wins
It always is like that yes. Eurofighter has a hard time in the sorry state it’s in right now.
A lot has to happen before you can take advantage of a superior STR low and “slow”.
And in the current meta. Rafales AESA and MICA beat out the Typhoons Buggy M-Scan and AMRAAM at this time.
well then you better learn how to exploit the EF flight model
we were talking pure flight perforamnce
missiles and avionics were out of the picture
Right after Storm Warning I had 2:1 on all 3 Eurofighters and a 2.5:1 on Rafale.
After the last update the only Eurofighter I played was the British one. It now sits below 2:1 while Rafale now sits at a 3:1.
If I check other players in random matches I see this gap widen even more. You do see better stats on Rafale accross the board.
More people are negative on Eurofighter than on Rafale.
Rafale is simply superior at the moment outside of obscure low energy rate fights.
If such a rate fight should occur and no enemy is left to missile you out of the sky beware of your teammates’ missiles…
being negative in either of them is a huge skill issue imo
you mean: enemies in blue?
So what?
Generally yes but I meant to highlight your average chances of survival after you classically won a rate fight.
i was just stating my opinion
Is there a game mode where we fly guns only?
Maybe we should also take 3 mins fuel too.
The problem is, people use pure flight performance as justification for the typhoon not to get buffs/missing features even though pure flight performance is largely irrelevant to a certain degree at top tier
