you need some lessons fanboy..
very curious and amused to receive lessons from 82, to be entirely honest.
Ak-47 and M-16 uses different round of bullets..one is 5.56 and another is 7.62..now try to find out differences and uses of them..
still can’t figure it out that I used them as a loose analogy?
slightly more advanced electronics is Spectra suits..which was tested in Libya and Afganistan and hailed one of the best..
I would brand it electra, more bollywood-like character for Indians, .rather than spectra if I led the marketing campaign… nonetheless, “ tested” in Libya and afgan?
on what? On those sloppy camel & goat herders?
if used well,growler can hunt down F-22..
Very true though. Why not? Thank you for proving my point!
J-10 is specialised on what???A2A or A2G??most defence experts compare J-10A/B with F-16C/D(30 years old tech)
air superiority.
The design of F-16C/D is gorgeous, 30 years old tech or not. For that matter, Rafale is 30 years old design as well and had it canard tech design drastically inferior to those J-10A, Grippen and EF.
2-seater F-14 is a very old “tech” as well, So what? Upgrade it with the state-of-art elecs and missiles, it still can taken on Rafale-M with ease!
Planes are treasured by their superior designs, far more important than plastic job upgrades. For that matter, J-10A was designed to be a top air superiority fighter in its weight class while Rafale, though overall a good design, was compromised to be all-in-one “omni” fighter that even the US doesn’t excel nor interested. In other words, Rafale is compromised in A2A in order to get A2G capabilities.
both for you and @Martian2..
flying high and kill aircraft below is for old gen aircraft..higher ceilings doesn't mean better performance..and Rafale isn't designed to be a interceptor..
“better performance” for what? For anything that woos a fancy airshow, anything but kill. I say that would be the mother of all fails.
Doesn’t matter what role Rafale has, what it can do when a J-10A is on top of it with much higher speed and longer distance missile? Pray hard?
and FYI,Meteor will enter in production when IN will start Rafale..and MIca's and PL-12s range is almost same..and radar cancellation technique of Rafale can be used against Pl-12 too..so,draw your conclussion..and yes..post rcs of J-10 if you can before making comments on Rafale's rcs..
“radar cancellation technique” you mean the Frenchie squatty style? No “electra”?
I wonder what else nerdy names those 100 IQers put into their promotion brochure for you Indians, but rcs is less important here as both J-10A and Rafale are non-stealthy. They weren’t designed so. Period! They can both find each other quite easily. What's important in such a BVR encounter are altitude, speed, missile quality and counter measures on which J-10A has an obvious overall edge when data-linked with AWACS.
