i havent seen the rafale or the sh show the ability to out maneuver aam’s

Jackjack,
EA wasn’t a feature of the original AN/APG-77. I mean to remember that I have read about EA trials with the AN/APG-77 2 or 3 years ago, it might be incorporated into the radar by now. The same is true for the AN/APG-79 which didn’t offer EA from day one, it was or maybe still is a proposed capability. The AN/APG-80 has no EA capabilities and there is not the slightest evidence that the AN/APG-63(V3) features it too.
EA capabilities are under consideration for the ES-05A Raven and a potential Captor-E, that doesn’t mean that these capabilities will be available from day one, they might but that’s not a given fact. The AESA technology offers the potential to be used in that role, but that doesn’t mean that every AESA radar will incorporate this function.

this article was just posted for the ew plan, the airforce is going to use growlers as well as the f-15, although it doesnt say whether the ew pod is also used with radar array ew or independent giving 2 options
when i see something on the f-16, i’ll let you know

the Air Force has begun equipping its F-15Cs with new long-range active, electronically scanned array (AESA) radars (AW&ST April 26, p. 45).
The advanced AESAs operate at 2-3 times the range of conventional radar and also serve as powerful weapons for airborne electronic attack (AEA) when coupled with a techniques generator that produces unique waveforms and algorithms

ok thanks for that

a dogfight is even harder if it doesnt have a gun
does the rafale m have a gun yet ?

as if the rafale will get wvr of a f-22
for missile wrv for 4.5 gen, hms & hobs has the edge

– no IRST or any long range passive device to scan , acquire , target and identify targets . A Rafale will recognize a F-22 at 50km with the TV . A F-22 can ‘t recognize a Rafale unless its pilot use his Mark-I eyeballs . You also must agree that within tight RoE , the Rafale has the advantage . A Russian or Chinese Flanker also share the same advantage , which is dangerous . Don ‘t you agree Kiwi ? 😎

– no active ECM suite . It only has the ALR-94 which is a passive (listening) suite .

not much has changed with you
so you know nothing about the f22 target acquisition, nothing about its ecm and you think the alr94 is for listening and you dont know where the 6 sensors for f-35 das came from
the only thing right, it hasnt had the long range flirst fitted yet, it is planed and has the existing designated space for it in front of the front wheel, like the f-35

let me know when the rafale gets a damocles pod fitted that the french are happy with, the ir osf is obsolete with a few ordered in 1991? from 80’s tech and no second order or anything in the near future coming
talking about ir isnt a good subject for the rafale

well lets bring the ecm and passive detection of the usa kit to the table too
we can only work on public info, but that should be enough for this exercise

jackjack :

Here we go again ! 😡
Our actual Pesa RBE2 has enough qualities and range to lock on a SH at 100km

Cheers .

got a link for that ?
and one for the sh radar too, lets get the tape measure out
mica vs 120, lol

jackjack :

I already explained it to you :

“”it only has an airframe and a FBW enabling it to point its nose even during negative speed (and without TVC) . “”

Cheers .

no i’m calling BS on that, i’m going to need a creditable link to show the rafale can maneuver while going backwards in the brief lift to 100 aoa wiping off all speed
unless its the big sign with target written on it helps the rafale recover, ever way its sitting there waiting to be killed
