When the latter claimed blatantly false A/A victories over the Typhoon (amonst other non-Typhoon related claims) and refused to comment about them to many, many non-French professional defence analysts…Well, what else did they expect?
Well, well well.
The victories over the Typhoon weren’t “blatantly false”. You’re in denial.
There is an interpretation you could accept that would make those claims true, though not revealing the whole story (which story, however ?). You chose not to believe the claims at all, that’s your problem.
Then, you assume that they refused to comment about those victories (where ? who ?), but they gave an interview to Air Force Monthly, not exactly a French publication. And even if DSI is French, I guess you choose to dismiss them whenever you want. Remember the issue number 15 ?:rolleyes: Meanwhile, we’re still waiting for an answer from the RAF pilots, whose comments never reached neither UK publications nor French.
I think you simply do not realize that before what happened in UAE, our newspapers wouldn’t have bet on the Rafale for the outcome of the Typhoon vs Rafale encounter.
The “big radar”, “longer ranged missile”, “supercruise” arguments were quite efficient here too, before.
EELightning, we could continue this discussion for years, this would lead nowhere.
My reaction to the Eurofighter’s piece was due to a mere fact which you didn’t catch : French pilots (not Dassault) may have lied by not revealing all the details. But hey, they all do the same, just like when Eurofighter used the JOUST results since 1994 without judging useful to add that all systems were too confidential to make the simulation relevant at comparing Rafale and Typhoon.
Here, Eurofighter, on this incredible page 10, have went much further : they published pure fantasia, imagining poor excuses for our use of Mirage F1, SuEtendard etc alongside with Rafale.
THIS is what I would call “blatant lies”, immaturity, trolling and all.
Do YOU personnally believe that M F1, and older types were complementing Rafale because the latter isn’t good enough ?
Do you buy there argument about the dual seater while Rafale M was performing the tasks too ?
Sincerely ?:) Do you think the people publishing this marketing sheet know their bit about the real reasons ? I’m sure you would have been much better.
In hope that language issues won’t make the thing worst.
