Although I wish the UAE had purchased more Mirage 2000_9, I have to say that the F16F looks really good. Very potent AC too.

It would be great to be able to buy a few of them though. Their capacities would be very welcome, even in other roles than the tanker role.

Rafales being able to work as tankers is a great capacity for missions where you can’t freely benefit of real tankers (dangerous area or something). Then tankers can fly along the strikers with the same flight profile until the refueling… and maybe a secondary bvr capacity just in case.

If a Harrier III existed, I guess Spain, Italy… maybe even india and brazil could be potential customers. The way I see it, the F35B would possibly get the axe if britain pulled out… leaving open a niche market for the Harrier III.

My understanding is that the raptor is the one frying the other’s radars. That said, it would be more useful if it washed the dishes… my kitchen is such a mess!

Not to mention they are going to escape from our control, and try to bring the human race into slavery or destroy the world in a nuclear holocaust.

I think it’s because they want to go for a conventional carrier, instead of a nuclear one like the CdG.

Regarding Typhoon not flying at night, a quick Google produced enough complaints from residents near Coningsby about 0300 take offs to give the truth to that story.

The guy says he needs sleep because he starts his work at 3 am, not that the planes make noise at 3 am. So he probably talks about planes flying in the evening when he’s trying to get some sleep.

Good, I’m glad Brazil didn’t purchase the 2k after all, it seems that Dassault and Embraer tried too hard to milk the cow at the expense of the FAB…. sad really…

I’ve spent my share of time in the AMX10P… replace it with whatever you want… just replace it! 😀

Why would you need a EH101 when we have the NH90? Sure the EH101 looks better but…

I’m not against buying british stuff, but it has to make sense. We have the Horizon, we have the barracuda which is probably going to be a great sub, so why would we scrap design of those things to buy it from somewhere else? Buy something we are not already building here!

If the UK didn’t decide to build a carrier fighter, tough luck, but we’re not going to scrap our own projects just to make up for it.
