    Jesus, how old are you kid!?
    Your imature posting style suggest Just that, a kid.
    Just drop these cheap points/shots and those retarded smileys of Yours! Its embarresing and painfull to read.

    There are lots of members here while not partizipating in these threads in fear of being dragged down the the current level of debate here or does not have time or knowledge enough, but that does not mean we enjoy to check up on them on a regular basic.
    And the thing i notice is, whichever thread you post in, its full of garbage.
    Members like MSphere, Scorpion82, etc are quite knowledgeble on many different topics, you should show these guys here a bit more respect.

    Edit:
    And for the record, i’ve been around this forum for many years now. I’ve seen many members come and go.
    Keep this up and you wont be around here much longer.

    I have reported you for the bullcrap on the latest pages here.

    Now get real or get lost!

    Oh sure MSphere will argue for 80 pages and then deny having said something.

    Believe it or not, all the points mentioned 1-4 have been said by members of this forum, either here or on other sites, at some point or other. They’re just choosing to remain quiet.

    In short, more conjecture and assumptions. These are the facts:

    1) Nobody knows the top speed of the Taranis.

    2) Nobody knows what’s going on inside the intake.

    3) The only sources state ‘supersonic’.

    4) THIS IS THE TYPHOON THREAD, SO TAKE THE DISCUSSION ELSEWHERE!

    Most relevant sources say it is high subsonic. Comparison with BAe Hawk gives some valuable clues.

    What sources? The Hawk comparison demonstrates size only.

    Shows how much you know nothing of the Rafael. You left out its cloaking device.

    :highly_amused: And the warp drive.

    Why did you feel the need to add that “FoV was more than that” ? You didn’t take the context of the discussion into account…

    Because azimuth FoV was omitted from the original statement.

    For the record everyone else, I am done with this conversation. I do not have the professional qualifications required to help the mentally ill.

    Look dude, all I’m saying is that the evidence so far, regardless of assumed quality, says it’s supersonic. Nothing more, nothing less. It may be mistaken, it may not be, but that’s the evidence so far.

    There isn’t any apparent design features on the intake of Taranis that would suggest that its supersonic, the engine that is installed would require those features to work at +M1

    I can’t see intake bleed spill vents or anti shock wave shaping on the intake…. but there are very few frontal pictures to check.

    Cheers

    The intake is probably optimised for subsonic but for low supersonic speeds that won’t be an issue.

    And does that say it isn’t supersonic?

    Well we don’t know that yet. Even the latest Adour is quoted at 10,000lbf allegedly, so even that could be enough in current guise. I don’t see why it’s such a big deal just because it’s a drone, same rules of physics apply.

    :confused::confused: so this is the same as the ” 20 nm passive shot” story then :p??????
    How do you expect anyone to take your words without any evidence ? :p, may be you didn’t lie about the resolution of DDM-NG, but then there is also equal possibility that you make it up

    If we just have to take your words for it without source or evidence then next time we will have to believe anyone about their pilot story whether they made it up or not? :confused:

    So far we know that:

    1) DEDIRA gives Rafale RCS of F-22.

    2) DDM-NG is better than EODAS.

    3) SPECTRA makes Rafale immune to all missiles.

    4) SPECTRA allows passive rear shots at over 20nm range.

    Yet less than 100 exports.:highly_amused:

    What’s with it?
    I do.. It matches exactly the info from my source.

    And the specifics of this sensor match DAS.

    That ain’t enough.. Your posts are not exactly better.. Every one contains either a factually inaccurate claim, something to dis a Rafale with or at least an accusation which you then cannot prove. That is pretty much a complete summary of your activity on this forum.

    Perhaps that’s because there are so many BS claims about Rafale and you don’t like certain facts. Who would I be proving anything to. I already know and so do you and no one else cares, therefore not worth the effort.

    Oh, I do know it has an ‘IRST’ function (ie. air-to-air modes) however nowhere I have seen stated just what kind of modes they are, what is its scan rate, how big is the FoV etc. If it is similar to targeting pods, then it’s probably mostly good for visual ID of targets acquired by other means (radar). An effective air-to-air sensor requires much wider FoVs than is common with targeting pods.

    Assumptions, assumptions, assumptions and conjecture.

    If i posted it i had a reason to do so… Btw Sofradir ie building better sensors nowadays…

    Right and so do I.

    Scorpion is really nice.

    Initial statement :
    Scorpion : +/60* in elevation.

    Your reaction :
    Lukos : FoV is more than that.
    You disputed the Scorpion’s statement which was unequivocally about ELEVATION…
    Scorpion (trying to refocus you) : not in elevation.
    Lukos : In azimuth it is.
    Why are you talking about azimuth ? off topic.
    Scorpion : “EVELATION. don’t move goalposts

    And it ends when you answer him : “Didn’t.
    From the beginning, it was about ELEVATION.

    I said FoV was more than that, FoV covers more than just elevation. Where did I dispute the original statement in that?

    Because generalists journos do not know a lot about airframes. They also stated it was trans continental plane. Did they mean between Gibraltar and Ceuta?

    Well we don’t know the details of the final variant. Then you have IFR.

    Lukos I know I am off topic, but to persist….

    There is nothing from the makers of Taranis that supports the notion it is supersonic. We don’t rely on the Toronto news or the Wollongong post for details on aviation, we look to aviation and defence journals or information from the manufacturer. There are no facts to support the notion of Taranis being supersonic, beautiful though the idea may be.

    On evidence to date says it is + absence of contrary evidence.

    Sez who? As I understand, EOTS is basically a targeting pod except in fixed, stealthy installation, which probably means it will come with all the normal tradeoffs of a targeting pod – ie. good range & resolution, poor FoV. Nowhere I have seen stated otherwise.

    Do you know what the FoV of EOTS is? It is stated to have an IRST function. Just assumptions on your part.

    Impossible… The aperture profile cannot fit the 4096×4096 sided FPA which is 60.7×60.7 mm size compared to 30.7×30.7 mm of the 4.2K sensor.
    You’re talking nonsense and are unable to make even basic calculations right..

    Look at the stem shape.

    Do you have any proof that the Rafale has a 1.3MP sensor other than halloweene’s post which states no specific correlation? Nope.

    LOL… That’s a very lame excuse.. I bet you have made an attempt to find it but upon having failed you have decided to resort to typical gibberish instead of a simple “Sorry, I was mistaken”..

    Nope, I just hate searching through old posts, especially cack ones like yours.
