Good title too.

You are delusional because you don’t want to admit they are just sociopaths who despise the french people. But I say again they are not dumb. Maybe some of them are indeed, but it would be even worse if they were smart.

just what I was saying in the “Rafale” topic

That we don’t have enough dumb bombs to achieve the same result?

You would think the French would learn this kind of thing doesn’t work! After trying to pull the same thing in Morocco a while back with the Rafale and more recently Canada with Fremm you would think France would get the message “Obey the countries procurement rules and don’t put forward unsolicited Government to Government deals!”

Seems to have worked in India. :rolleyes:

The point is (the one you obviously do not want to admit) : France has the capability to intervene if it chooses to where it chooses to (weapons AND logistics). And it does have an interventionist policy second only to the USA. like it or not, that’s the way it is.

Good luck trying to replicate the success of the Russian intervention in Syria considering the disastrous state of our army.

Precisely what djcross said.

When I was younger, we all (including the Rafale fans here) used to bat the Typhoon v Rafale debate back and forth. Back then, Rafale was not as good an interceptor (as Typhoon) but was a good mud mover which was slightly underpowered. These were the “truths” that we discussed.

I don’t think many Rafale fans agreed at the time that the Rafale was not as good an interceptor as the Typhoon. Although years ago the perception of the EF being a better interceptor was stronger around here because of the propaganda spouted by a famous British journalist in various publications, which kept being regurgitated here by jackonicko for instance.

Several years later, Rafale is the supposed to be “best interceptor, most agile fighter and most capable mud mover with Typhoon being barely good at any role and still unable to bomb” ? Really?

I’d like to know which Rafale fan said the Rafale was the best & most agile interceptor.

Seriously,

I didn’t know Denial was located in the UK.
