  • The Rafale is the new jet fighter acquired from India, but the Rafale is also the main jet fighter for other countries, chiefly France but also Egypt etc. In this long format, we have collated the two previous episodes covering the Rafale.
    It is a good time to do so particularly for the recent Indian delivery of the first planes: the Indian friends will have a lot to learn!
    This jet fighter is one of my favorites so I hope you will enjoy it too.

      Could you please consider making a video about the Chengdu J-10? It seems like it would make a nice addition to your delta wing fighter series. As the most numerous fighter currently in the People's Liberation Army Air Force it also seems relevant to current events.

    A lot of Indians do not know this - the French have NEVER delayed the delivery of, or asked more money for(after the initial contract has been signed) any aircraft they delivered to the IAF. Unlike the Russians who keep upping the price and making us pay more and more even after a contract has been signed, the French have ALWAYS followed through on time and within budget. Remember how the cost of the INS VIkramaditya ballooned from an initial $700M to $2.5B? Or how they asked for a fortune to integrate the Brahmos to the Su-30s? Or how the Mig-29Ks have to make a trip to the hangar after every sortie due to reliability issues? Russian equipment is proving troublesome. Previous Indian governments were admittedly foolish when Dassault time and again offered to shift the M2000's assembly line here, and offered us the first -5's and -9s that the line produced. I sincerely believe that India should agree to host a future Rafale production line(if offered) and join the Franco-German-Spanish 6th gen fighter project while keeping the AMCA alive.

As for France sticking to its cost price.......$255m dollars per unit gave a significant margin!

      EFT with 3 X tanks. 3700k
      When conformal tanks are fitted it would be
      greater for Rafale but EF has experimental not production tanks so it is hard to compare as we don't know what extra volumes they offer.
      The height capabilities of EFT are 19,812m
      The Rafale height capabilities are 15,835m
      The possibility of launching a missile from high speed and height give Meteor a 30% increase in range.

      Some dumb politician in India tried to make the Rafale deal a controversy by invoking corruption but he utterly failed. He also involved Former president Francois Hollande and his girlfriend's names as well.
      Since he is dumb, he always pronounced the Fighter as Rafael jet, which the Indian media also pounced upon without any regard for cross-verification. It's pathetic but it is what it is. That's why most Indian people who just follow news don't know its original pronounciation.

    One of the biggest plus points of purchasing rafale for IAF was the fact that Eurofighter was joint venture and bad ties with any of the participants (UK, our former coloniser for e.g.) nations in future could create lack of cooperation to maintain eurofighter fleet.
    While rafale also has some components from other nations but they are replaced by french seeing that India and other future customers would highly prefer it, Although Indian indigenous tejas mk2 will be more than sufficient for IAF's need in future but the French has always came to our rescue as they're the most autonomous nation that is a part of nato.

    India already paid all the initial costs for the rafale in the first batch, such as weapons, training costs, simulators, infrastructure modification, spare parts, India specific modifications, etc. That's why the initial 36 rafales cost 8.4 billion USD. If India decides to buy 36 more, the next batch will cost only about 4 billion USD. India will most probably order 36 more, for a total of 72 rafales.

      India will have a total of 72 of them, means 36 more on IAF wishlist as of now. The ADA and DRDO/HAL are really pushing for Tejas MK2 around 2025 and the AMCA around 2024. People have doubt over it, watching the track record of hal/iaf's everchanging wish of Tejas's capabilities/flowing of funds. And Tedbf too is on the list which will gonna replace carrier-based mig29ks around 2029.

      @ no, I think there is no future of mmrca 2.0. that's in the dustbin now if you see the way things are taking place. There will be very less chance that IN will opt for Rafale, even if it does..the number will certainly not be 90. I think there won't be any rafale in Navy. Both navy and the govt is focusing on TEDBF . mig29ks will start phasing itself out from 2033 and TEDBF first flight is scheduled for 2029. So govt is going in that path. TEFBf is also given green light so that the air force version of it ORCA can be developed quickly on the TEFBf structure. So, if you ask me, then another 36 rafale for IAF will end the saga of buying foreign fighters IF EVERYTHINGS STAYS ON THE RIGHT PATH. And 42 sqrdn cant be achieved before 2035-40

      The Rafale needs at least a 70mts catapult to take off. The V. carrier doesn't have one. Maybe it could TO from the sky jump but I am pretty sure that the payload will be severely affected, up to the point of not being worth considering.
      Adding the catapult is a terribly complex job that heavily taxes the ship structure, either steam or EMALs.

If your neighbours are cool and wealthy, buy Gripen. If not, and if America doesn't really care about you (like Greece or India), Rafale is a good option. If your sky is safe, do as the French, have a Baguette!

    Great video and content. Nice to see France still has a few strong points in its industry and engineering. It's probably worth mentioning that the French (since De Gaulle) try to maintain they sovereignty and independence when it comes to strategic industries such as defense or energy. This is one of the big competing of the last few governments which have taken damaging steps against French capability to remain truly independent militarily.
    Nevertheless, the Rafale if an incredible machine and a thing of beauty, but to be fair Dassault have done it before. The various Mirage variants are incredible machines not totally obsolete today, and in my eye the most amazing looking fighter.

    Rafale remains a better strike package as it can deliver more weapons than EFT.
    EFT remains a better interceptor as it has height and speed advantages.
    That is a basic distinction as both are capable of switching to their next best roles. But Rafale is Nuclear capable ( but only with French type) and a carrier version is available and suitable for medium carrier decks due to its size.
    Neither compare with F22 or F35 though due to 5th generation modernization.
