Absolutely, the Rafale is a masterpiece of engineering! It's like the Swiss Army knife of the skies-versatile, agile, and with incredible precision. As they say, 'the only limit is the sky,' and the Rafale truly embodies that. A must, indeed!
It’s impressive how the Dassault Rafale has managed to stand out, but "best" is a relative term. While its track record is impressive and performance excellent, it’s always good to remember that every aircraft has its strengths and weaknesses, and operational context can influence effectiveness. The Rafale is undoubtedly a formidable machine, but calling it the "best" might be a bit one-sided.
@@Military_Forces_UnleashedI really don’t see why. He wins all of the competitions that allow to compare skills and has been for the last 20 years or so; therefore, it’s the best multirole fighter. Doesn’t mean it doesn’t have flaws, but it apparently has less than its competitors. That’s just facts
The Dassault Rafale, a true marvel of engineering. It’s sleek, versatile, and packs a punch. The French have really outdone themselves with this one. It’s not just a pretty face, either; the Rafale has proven itself in various combat situations, showcasing its multi-role capabilities. But let’s not forget, no aircraft is invincible. Every jet has its strengths and weaknesses, and the Rafale is no exception. Still, you have to hand it to Dassault for creating a fighter that can hold its own in the modern battlefield. Bravo!
@@fabienhyvert2319 The Dassault Rafale is indeed a formidable fighter jet, known for its versatility and advanced technology. However, its operational cost is a point of discussion. According to military sources such as Jane's Defence Weekly and Defense News, the unit cost of the Rafale can vary, with estimates around $100 million USD per aircraft. Additionally, the cost of maintenance, training, and operational deployment adds to the overall expense. Despite these costs, the Rafale's performance in various combat scenarios has proven its value, making it a key asset in modern air forces."
Bill Lear hit the nail on the head with that observation. Aviation history is filled with examples of aircraft that not only have impressive designs but also deliver exceptional performance. The Dassault Rafale is no exception; it combines elegance with formidable operational capability. Indeed, the philosophy that a well-designed aircraft flies well has held true across the decades, and the Rafale is a modern testament to this maxim.
@@Military_Forces_Unleashed Thanks for the reply !! I wanted to include the Mosquito, but i stopped at single engine fighters... If you have planes that you think should be on that list, please post it ! One of my fav ( 'good looking' ) fighter is the Grumman Bearcat... It came out too late to see action in WWII, but i wished it had seen service a year before. ( or instead of the Hellcat, that was kind of needlessly big for a carrier based fighter, even if it performed well... )
Absolutely, Dassault has been setting some high bars with the Rafale. It's a testament to their engineering prowess and innovation in fighter plane design. Saab, with their Gripen, has also been a strong competitor in the market, offering a versatile and cost-effective fighter. But you're right, with the Rafale's impressive capabilities and proven combat record, Dassault is certainly making waves. It’s a competitive field, and while Saab is no slouch, they'll definitely need to stay on their toes to keep up with Dassault's momentum.
You're welcome! I'm glad you enjoyed the video. If you have any more questions or need more information about the Rafale or anything else, feel free to ask!
You’re absolutely right! The Dassault Rafale is designed as an omnirole fighter, meaning it can excel in various missions-from air superiority to ground attack and even nuclear deterrence. It’s impressive how it can adapt to so many roles. But hey, I get it; sometimes the labels can get a little muddled. What specific roles do you think it performs best in?
@@Military_Forces_Unleashed i couldn’t give you an answer and remain confident of my words. I am simply a curious mind that enjoys learning about planes and military stuff.
Good content, but too many silly adjectives: Thrilling, fascinating, passionate, absolute marvel, pretty face (?!), incredibly sophisticated and advanced, unmatched precision and style, exhilarating. All in the first 45 seconds! 🤦♂️
Thanks for the feedback! I appreciate your honesty and will definitely keep an eye on my use of adjectives. Sometimes the excitement about these incredible machines can get the best of me. I'll aim for more balanced descriptions in the future.
@@fabienhyvert2319: There's nothing in common between a Rafale, a F15 and a F18. How can you say a delta canard can be compared with swept wings fighter ? They are multirole fighters but don't share any common architecture.
this aircraft is just the best that we can do today.....it can do everything with an extreme brio....a must !

Dassault is a powerhouse of fighter plane design. Saab better be looking over their shoulder.

Lol, this comment implies that Saab is somehow ahead of Dassault while in reality it's the opposite and not even close.
@@creativeearthian1702Why the “lol” though? No need for bragging
thank you great video

F15 ex is the father of Rafale
Nope, it's the far more versatile F18 Hornet.

Bullshit how a programmed in 2018 engine could be the father of another launched in 1988

They are multirole fighters but don't share any common architecture.
Except Rafale is better, inherently more advanced. The EX still uses the same design made in early 70s
