rafale demo at paris airshow 2009

[wildwindsca]

frig....every time somebody puts the top gun soundtrack with these vids, give me a break.

the song is sooo overused.

[nazirdjon]

all things aside, this is a neat and mean looking little bastard fighter :D i like it.

[david87758]

Dassault Rafale, is a versatile fighter

Advanced and modern technology in France



[FlintDeep]

Can make "the Cobra?? Can make "the hammer"??? Can make all the maneuvers that make the SU-37???

[eikkkN]

no sense

[micou199619]

rafale is better in dog fight and in out of visual range but EF is a better intercepter.

they are both good fighters.

[eikkkN]

@micou199619 What you say is not logical: Interception = dogfight

[micou199619]

no interciption is destroying bombers or ground attack planes and dogfight is a combat betwen fighter at visual range

[eikkkN]

@micou199619 dogfight can be beyond visual range too.

[micou199619]

@eikkkN no dogfight = air combat manouvering (ACM)

[eikkkN]

@micou199619 So how do u call a dogfight in BVR ? ^^

[micou199619]

BVR air combat =)

[micou199619]

@eikkkN BVR combat :)

[yurimnds]

The Brazil purchased this model

[FeelFree3]

Can Rafale perform cobra maneuver?

[mvrk151]

Every copy of this song needs to be burned and buried.

[wollin20]

They should make a drone version of it...Yes, I know, drones suck because it's not like flying, but who can stand these extreme flight conditions which make them so effective?

RAFALE its one of the best fighter jet in the world,and also it looks some what like typhoon,i think both of them are pretty equal,dont know which 1 is really the best,but i think they are almost equal,and yes rafale cost more

[Cougar133]

Rafale can put 11G ... typhoon can't ....... in dogfight , I think Rafale will win despite less powerful engines , it has better aerodynamics and better nose authority .

[ChuckMamuck]

you cant say its better than the EF, they're too similar in performance to say ones better than the other. the EF can sustain and maintain 9g indefinately and pull 6g supersonic whilst retaining its agility and manouverability when others fighters cant, it dont make the EF better tho, just small advantages. the rafale can pull 11g and ive read 14g, but thats not sustained for more than a few seconds, ive read the EF airframe can take higher than 9g also. the human pilot limits the g's.

[EdGeyy]

@Cougar133 lmao what??

[TheProjektcc]

@Cougar133

you're right the rafale kicked the snot out of Eurofighter in the UAE joint exercises just before getting beat by the raptor.

But the french pilots came back so excited and boasting that they beat the british they had snapshots of their radars with the eurofighter in the center.

[cachopawow]

Brasil buy 36 Rafale ;)

[Aerolipe111]

@cachopawow They bought the planes plus the technology and now braZil will build their own Rafales!!!!!

[a340bo737]

I was at the airshow and I remember the Rafale display being one of the best of the day!! Absolutely breathtaking!!

[22741]

rafale? it's the typhoon

[a340bo737]

nope, it's the Dassault Rafale. It looks a little like the Typhoon but it's definately the Rafale.

[frabolito]

putain cédric té un dieu ya pas d'autres  mots...tu m'as fais rêver on est pas loin de l'ovni ^^

bravo poulet

on est les meilleurs bordel !

[druisteen]

I WANT THIS PILOT

I WANT THIS PLANE

[dfsauruguaya]

Was there, and is by far the best air show in the world

[ironfalcon100]

The Rafale may have scored its first export customer with the UAE, which is planning to purchase 60 to complement their F-16 Block 60s. Discussions are ongoing.

[CamilosSmith]

great Capitaine Cedric Ruet

[pasley21]

Sorry I did love the high alpha pass though

[pasley21]

Nice vid but I think the display needs work i'd like to see tighter maneuvers instead of ones that show off their exspensive 'Smokewinders' ,so advice ,lose the smoke

[zand3r73]

There's an 8 minute demo on here from UK's RIAT 2009 event. It shows Rafale pulling some jaw dropping turning.

[pasley21]

Hey thanks ill have to check that out

[Pocketzszs]

that was awesome cept the camera wasnt bad for an amateur. I love the Rafale though, reminds me of the original f-18's 32,000 lbs of thrust small and light just awesome cept there kinda slow mach 1.2 max? thats only 1000 mph or lower.

[salimma]

The English announcement was wrong, in French it said "un soixant-dix" (1.70)

[foxmulderms]

I was there... it was GREAT!

[s3fredo]

simply the best

[Sfeer]

Highway to the Dangerzone!!!

[Cougar133]

[1927henritta]
