It's amazing how 'compact' the Rafale is. It seems quite a lot shorter than the (Eurofighter)Typhoon. It's amazing what they can squeeze under the bonnet (hood) of such a dinky airframe. Excellent French engineering, and that's coming from me, a Brit! (it's normally against our DNA to agree with the French about absolutely everything!).
Thank you very much ! Our (mostly common) DNA has sadly prevented us to do amazing things together. I've always believed that when France and UK dare to work together, especially in military engineering field, we are unbeatable. We tried to launch some bilateral cooperation with the Lancaster house agreement. But then Brexit happened.... Comments like yours makes me believe there is still hope. Best wishes for you and Uk, may 2023 be the year of common sense 🙏🏻
The size and weight from the Rafale was voluntary limited to make it capable to use the small french carrier (first the Foch, then the Charles de Gaulle) , the Eurofighter Typhoon is impossible to made in navy version because the navy landing gears are much bigger and did not fit in the Eurofighter body, and the EF fuselage is not strong enough...

It's so easy for French Navy pilots to land on the runways of giant US aircraft carriers. ^^ It is more difficult for US Navy pilots to land on the smaller French aircraft carriers. ^^

Rafale is indeed very compact (as many comments noticed), it's a 10 T (22,000 Lb) plane when empty, with a max of 5 T of petrol and 10 T of amunitions...

Rafale does not have folding wings like the Hornets but still up to 30 can be crammed aboard a smaller French Navy aircraft carrier. I can only imagine how many more can be carried by a much larger Nimitz class carrier.
Many things we have in common (and plenty we don't, which is fine, and even a positive thing oftentimes), but here we see 2 of the top 3 between France & the US: Amazing aircraft & immensely powerful nuclear-powered aircraft carriers (the 3rd is a whole lot of really awful movies for every 1 good one, but that hardly fits with the theme 😉). Vive la France & God Bless America! 🇫🇷🇺🇸
It certainly wouldn't be as strong without the French. The only European country that makes its own everything, from aircraft carriers to fighter jets (including the engines and weapons) and everything inbetween.
@@Aeronaut1975 That's not entirely true, at least the "everything in between" part. the French operate the Grumman E2 Hawkeye, Boeing KC-135 Stratotanker Boeing E-3 Sentry and new C-130J, plus more on order, and a slue of other aircraft from other countries, like the Pilatus for example.
vanité ? c est juste qu on a pas les moyens donne nous le pognon on te les construits on a les chantiers de l atlantique on fait des paquebots de croisiere plus gros que vos porte avion ce n est pas un probleme technique

It would be good if, as an arrogant American, you shut your mouth and watch how you went to Afghanistan in a catastrophic way. and the lamentable manner of your training of Ukrainian soldiers. a French
Si nous sommes vaniteux, c'est que nous pouvons nous le permettre. Contrairement à certaines puissances, nous ne dépendons que très peu des technologies étrangères. Et non en effet, nous n'avons pas le sous de certaines puissances, mais personne ne fait mieux que nous pour ce qui est du ratio moyen financier/ résultats. A bon entendeur 😉
Heureusement qu'ils ne sont pas attaqués car c'est bien long pour faire décoller un avion ! Je comprends mieux où sont toutes ses heures de vol, que nos rafales passent à ne pas voler 😅. C'est la où ont se rend compte du manque d'efficacité des militaires, des fonctionnaires en général ou ont préfère lenteurs, précision, que rapidité et efficacité. Toutes les différences sont les mots publique et privé 😅. Heureusement que tout le monde ne travaille pas à la même vitesse qu'eux.

Nos avions sont quand même d'une classes incroyables ainsi que nos pilotes je trouve ❤
Like Marcel Dassault used to say "a beautiful airplane is an airplane that flies well"
A beautiful plane is a plane that flies beautifully
in fact I think it's the opposite....Serge Dassault rather said: "for a plane to fly well it must above all be beautiful"
@@gandigooglegandigoogle7202 That's what I wanted to say. But my english is not perfect.
Fière d'avoir en France un avion aussi beau bravo aux usines dassault un petit bijoux
Really get a better sense of how massive the carriers actually are,thanks for that perspective!!
Absolutely

A ship launching Rafales and Super Hornets. Now THAT is SWAG.
thanx for this footage !
Those jets are sleek
le plus bel avion du monde...............
Nice vidéos i like it ❤
Thanks for the vid. Great job. Love the intricacies of launching a plane. Go Army.

Un avion pour qu'il vol faut qu'il soit beau ☝️✌️,(Marcel Dassault)
Comme il avait raison monsieur dassault et que les pilotes doivent apprécier cette areonef
เขาจะใช้เครื่องบินอีกสามเหลี่ยมหมดทั้ง 3 รุ่นมันจะเป็นเครื่องบินหลักของกองทัพอินเดียและกองทัพเรือ
I have one question : Is it normal to have that amout of "tourists" so near in that "danger zone " ???
Not common but it was a special occasion of French Jets landing on the carrier so many people wanted to see them launch

c'est autre chose que les F35 hahahahaha!! Vive la France 😅
That’s good for french vanity to see what is a real aircraft carrier
That's good for American superiority to see what the french pilots can do on a smaller aircraft carrier !
