Well, it kinda is.
Very limited missile count
out dated radar these days
small CM count
next to no multirole capability
no IRST (yet)
Only thing really going for it is the TVC
Sort of that doesn’t tell you anything though except that the Rafale is quite good at close in fights irl.
Yes since progression in capabilities is the most logical step even if it means some countries would have multiple top tiers before another one would have its chance to shine. It does not make sense in any world for the raf/eft to come before F-2, F-18s, F-15s, Su-30s, Su-27s.
And as for the Germans, they were to either get Swiss F-18s or just play the F-4F ICE at an appropriate BR, nothing else to it.
Well, that is just stupid, if there was no Rafale, Typhoon or Gripen E, then there should be no F-15 or Su-30 either. Simple. The Moment they added the F-15C, the Eurodeltas were innevitable
So maybe there should be no F-22 or Su-57 until we get Tempest then?
How is it out dated in any way?
It also tells about how F-22 performs in dogfight
I only realized now you changed name lmfao
Its an AESA sure, but its not gimballed, thats a major advantage these days
This argument is a bit tricky because there are still a lot of planes limited by their poor modeling and missing systems.
The fulcrum could be a good top tier jet (pre euro canards) but isn’t bc it’s modeled poorly.
Shar FA.2 another example
Later variant Mirage jets
The list goes on
But gaijin has not showed interest in correcting the same few meta platforms.
Huh? That doesn’t make sense. F-15s and Su-27s logically came after F-16s, Tornados, Mirage, MiG-29 came. They were the logical next step. Later F-15s, Su-30SM, F-2A, Hornet, and Super Hornets were the logical next steps, not RAF/EFT
It lost is that what your saying lol
No, because you’re still ignoring the capability progression part

In war thunder that would be true until they add system like AWACS

6-1 was the score. Raptor won 6 times against rafale
So you consider F-15E vs Tornado F3 and F4F ICE balanced?
There’s a thing called battle-rating system, we have it and those could be used for those scenarios.
Where did you hear that lol. In the film that was released it was a brief guns range dogfight from the perspective of the Rafale
In what way is fulcrum modeled poorly?
So why does that not apply to the Eurodeltas?
Why should they have been restricted from the game, but their coutnerparts not?
Lacking in sustained turn performance quite a bit at low speed where it’s very good irl.
