The fuel extension in this plane is an anomaly in modern aircraft design. It is not a matter of liking it or not , but how it impedes the overall aerodynamic design of this great airplane. It has affected its sales outside France and will continue to do so until there is a fix for it.
It is a beautiful and modern aircraft but the refuel extension ruins the design and esthetics . Don't the french engineers see that ? Cannot it not be built retractable?
@Aviationweek THIS PARIS AIR SHOW REPORT IS OUTDATED AND YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED! RAFALE HAS BEEN CHOSEN BY INDIA! DX

Looks like Rafale's got a partner. May not be the only one. There may now be other countries interested. Nice aircraft!!
