    13:28 I’m the guy who will say “mlamhmhla, you don’t understand how AESA works”. So they’re not, AESA radars form a single beam as well as any other radar (both MSA and PESA) and scan the zone by following their scan patterns just like any other radar, 2 things are: 1 - scan speed is indeed better (for modern AESA and PESA radars it is presumably around 4s to scan 60x60 zone), 2 - once the radar finds a target AESA radars have 2 options: first is to track target using the same algorithm as PESA radars (continuing scanning but periodically illuminating targets that were detected before) which gives it an ability to not lose in max range of the radar. And the second one is to split the beam and continuously illuminating detected targets via those “secondary-beams” while still continuing searching for new targets via “main-beam”. This gives them an ability to update info about already detected targets instantly but the further the targets are and the more of them there - the less range the radar has (range decreases SIGNIFICANTLY with every additional target). Currently both Rafale’s AESA and Su-34’s PESA use 1st method and both have lower (but not by much) scan speed than estimated scan speed of relatively new AESA and PESA radars

    Cool video and nice kills in this gorgeous cockpit !
    If only gaijin give the MICA their real range of 80km, this would put the Rafale on a better place for BVR gameplay.
    About missiles, now France have 8 of them with the current F4 variants of the Rafale, but modified F3 for Indian already got 8, and i've read actual pylons ingame (for this F3 variant) could take the 8 MICA (they have been tested with), so it's a Gaijin choice here to keep to 6 missiles max, perhaps for balance, or to keep a later upgrade to come ingame usefull.
    And about the flares, IRL they are intelligent flare, better than basic small or large flare, they mimic the rafale heat signature, so stronger flares than usual, saddly Gaijin have not modeled that so we are stuck to 32 basic large flares. Or it can use basic small flare, in bigger number than 32 but i don't have the number for that.
    Hope all of this change in the future.

    Meanwhile the Eurofighter doesn't work in sim, cause there's no markers for locked targets, and the hmd only turns on if you switch your radar to hmd mode, sacrificing tws and rws capeabilities. That seems to be a sim issue only tho, and until two updates ago the hand issue wasn't there either.
