Rafale is Better than Typhoon Says a Rafale Pilot.

[Hulk]

LCA is the lightest plane ever developed in the world, its fuselage is made of fiber and celloluse composites, its naval version can be launched even by hand.
Ga ga ga ga ga

looks like something is burning.

looks like something is burning.

and i think its a paper, erm, plane

 

[Kompromat]

No more LCA talk here !!!

 

[KSRaj]

I hope all the praise would help lessen KSraj complains, from JF-17 pilots.

So sweet of you .... Thank you so much!

According to fas.org
Simulations conducted by British Aerospace and the British Defense Research Agency compared the effectiveness of the F-15C, Rafale, EF-2000, and F-22 against the Russian Su-35 armed with active radar missiles similar to the AIM-120 Advanced Medium Range Air-to-Air Missile (AMRAAM). The Rafale achieved a 1:1 kill ratio (1 Su-35 destroyed for each Rafale lost). The EF-2000 kill ratio was 4.5:1 while the F-22 achieved a ratio of 10:1. In stark contrast was the F-15C, losing 1.3 Eagles for each Su-35 destroyed.

Although the above simulation results are not of Typhoon vs. Rafale but a correlation can be made by considering their simulation results against Su-35.

The french always highly boast about their country and anything associated with it, nothing new. I'd take a typhoon over a rafale anyday.

american propaganda. dont believe in it.

Rafale has better aerodynamics than Typhoon. yes the difference may be small because both are delta winged air craft. But still Rafale is better fighter than Typhoon. However, the engine of Typhoon is way better than Rafale's. This could be solved with better engine added to Rafale by the foreign operator. Rafale's control system is well praised.

 

[Storm Force]

Theres nothing to choose between the 2 once RAFAEL gets its uprated engine.

ANYWAY all you fan boys will soon get the answer because the Indians have TEST FLOWN both by MARCH 2010.

They will tell us all WHICH IS THE BEST AFTERALL we are talking about a $12 billion deal and over 120 fighters

 

[Storm Force]

GROMELL the Results of kill raios are a famous DERA STUDY back in 1995.

Its actually rubbish to make the TYPHOON look better than it is really.

In 1995 the british had no idea of the SU35/SU30MKI PESA radar power or the electroincs/jammers that they acquired in 2005.

ITS MADE UP and even the F15/F16 where non AESA equipped.

the truth air combat today in 2010 between
F16/60 F15 AESA EQUIPPED F18S/H SU30MKI/SU35 & RAFAEL/TYPHOON will be very close. (these are all 4.5 generation fighters)

BUT THE F22 is a different league

 

[Luftwaffe]

EF-2000 vs Rafale both have plus and minus question is what is it that rafale can't do that ef-2000 can do apart from super cruise? i know but you guys into VS group tell me..

Don't berate the French, after all, they designed the LCA for ya India... Just the airframe, though, but already bigger than Indian contribution to the desgin

 

[Kompromat]

I dont understand why Indians bring their LCA Pipe dream in every god damn thread

 

[Archie]

He said Rafael is true omini role and was designed from begining to be omini role a/c, where as Typhoon is now trying to adapt to be closer to Rafael!

Excuse the french

he is right , rafale is an omni role fighter ,where as typhoon is an air superiority fighter, probably the best after the raptor
but rafale is a much better , ground attack fighter and has the highest payload among all fighter jets in production at 9000kgs
however , eurofighter has some edge over rafale , and that is its better thrust and lower rcs at just 1 sq m compare to rafales over 2 sqm

LCA is the lightest plane ever developed in the world, its fuselage is made of fiber and celloluse composites, its naval version can be launched even by hand.
It has supercruise engine, ... some times engine cruse so fast that it disengage from fueselage, it does not need airframe to keep in air, which makes LCA the most stealth aircraft, with zero sound pressure and with no heat signature. without engine it also need less maintainence.
It has true fly by wire while other aircrafts of the world use fly by thread, hence LCA is best suitable to fly in strong winds.
Its history can be traced back to vedic period and its name Teja was suggested by ancient hindus brahmans.
DRDO classify it second to Raptor and keep it away from lightinings and thunders, after ironing out its tail less delta wings to wingless delta it will be classified as 6th generation fighter aircraft, capable of star wars... but DRDO scientist hit delays in developing time machine which can send Teja back to iron age for ultimate ironing.
Though IAF does not believe in ironing of Teja and is demanding maha Teja.
first squarden of maha teja is scheduled for induction in nonovember 20010.

Damn....... JF 17 Beats LCA yet again.....

Is it, LCA was not designed by them, Just because we have delta wings does not mean that The french designed it....
