they do in case of carried weapons.
so if you have a picture of a Eurofighter carrying 10 Amraams it can be used to bug report the loadout
Can’t help with that, I’m terrible at math
Is this used to spot photoshopping?
yes to a certain extend

Never thought to use noise as a way to check the validity of an image, that is clever
So that’s effectively proof of amraam’s being mounted there? -_-
aww
Yes. However it cannot detect if its from some very advanced imaginary AI, a game or an actual irl image

something like this ?
well it could be from a game, you cant really tell because of the low image quality

Hmm I see, still a pretty cool tool tho, first time seeing it :)
It’s all about altitude & conditions with actual speed vs mach number

It’s just that we are talking about aircraft with performance characteristics closer to each other than the one on Bf 109 and Spitfire we are also talking about aircraft with a thrust to weight ratio higher than one.
You are a little simplistic in your approach.
Even in War Thunder the speeds you are flying at matter as well.
Over all Rafale has quite the edge regarding maneuverability. Guns only is mostly interesting for duelists only while Rafale might as well just win that one due to the mind boggling performance and characteristics it currently possesses in game.
Eurofighter has been nerfed heavily in flight performance.
thats why you should manage your energy well instead of pulling all the avaiable Gs in the merge, energy managment applies to all planes in a dogfight.
It dosent matter if it is a BF-109 or a EF
Unless im reading that wrong, doesnt that say the Rafale can pull more Gs and turn in a tighter radius than the EFT?
But in either case. It doesnt matter if the Rafale cant quite pull onto a Typhoons tail. it can just use HMD+MICA or Magic II to close the gap. Typhoon on the other hand has to maneuver to the point of bringing guns to bare before using either of its missiles.
Id rarely if ever fire an AIm-9M with anything other than a good lead on the target.

Do not ignore what I said earlier please.
In War Thunder if missiles are involved Rafale will notch more easily and fire a high off bore missile more quickly while also being able of reentering the notch more easily than Eurofighter.
In a dogfight Rafale can often times simply pull a lot of AOA and get a high off bore launch off.
Without missiles it depends on speed and altitude of course.
If Eurofighter manages to force Rafale into a regime that is advantageous for Eurofighter it will of course win in a guns only fight. But at the moment at high speeds Rafale is so dominant, that Eurofighter barely has a chance.
Management of energy works a little differently for 4th gen jets than it does for older aircraft. Advantages gained are often not quite as decisive.
Eurofighter rather locks up at the moment so you are forced to bleed speed deploying the airbrea for example kwithout resulting in a gained postition while Rafale can choose to either keep energy or do what currently might be easier pull as hard as possible, bleeding speed to more optimal energy levels for maneuvering while also gaining position.
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.
