Rafale C F3

Way too early to talk about its FM tbh. Rafale is still very WIP as far as I can tell.

Its worse than the gripen for sure, I would say it is on par or a tad worse than the mirage2k in a dogfight but you got better acceleration.

Correction:
It’s similar to the J10, but better slow-speed nose authority, almost like a flanker and better than the mirage2k.

Sustained turn rate is also similar to the J-10.

Yeah but according to this chart we have to keep a very close eye on it’s FM because if it stays the same we are fucked.

20°/sec best STR is just… Not enough idk even M2K manages to do more than that iirc

m2k does about 18º/s but can do it at very low speeds where the rafale would do 17. The mk2 also can pull hard turns at slow speeds and retain better energy than the rafale.

But the rafale can turn more and retain more energy at higher speeds and has a 20º/s sustained rate and overall feels like a J-10

20º/s is about what the su-27, J-10 and F-15C can sustain for example.

Please bug report that

You really are a tough nut huh… This chart is completely fake and is neither approved by official organisms nor the real community of real Rafale enjoyers. If you don’t have a picture of the plane actually carrying a payload or have documents that clearly specify a loadout has been tested at bare minimum it’s not even worth for you to keep maintaining your point because it is invalid. And if you did actual research you’d know this source is completely absurd and holds no value at all.

That is again False, acccording to the F3 standard history the first iteration of the standard still had to use Magic 2s due to issues in MICA IR orders and deliveries.

That is False in game the Rafale we have is clearly specified to be the latest F3 series model known as F3R.

No need. It’ll get refused as this chart is famous to be fake.

oh… :c

I noticed that too. But the rafale uses GIAT 30 M791 and eurocopter uses GIAT 30 M781.that’s not the same.
But unfortunately, I can’t find any sources. Maybe you can try visit the website of Nexter,which is called KNDS now.their website: Home | KNDS Group

in fact, we are getting Rafale C F3-R not F3. According to Wiki, the F3-R uses an AESA

su27sm can take 12 missles

But 2000-5f has only 3 degrees of vertical scan when using tws.To compare with,rafale has 11 degrees.
And the attack angle lock of 2000-5f at high speed is a bit unbearable. The thrust of rafale is also better.
I believe that rafale will perform better than 2000-5f in air rb.

Wohoo!Thanks for telling me that
