Rafale Jet Fighter - breakdown of the new Indian purchase - (Long Format)
Vložit
- čas přidán 5. 09. 2024
- The Rafale is the new jet fighter acquired from India, but the Rafale is also the main jet fighter for other countries, chiefly France but also Egypt etc. In this long format, we have collated the two previous episodes covering the Rafale.
It is a good time to do so particularly for the recent Indian delivery of the first planes: the Indian friends will have a lot to learn!
This jet fighter is one of my favorites so I hope you will enjoy it too.

Would you be comfortable to share the name of music which you have used @2:52
Could you please consider making a video about the Chengdu J-10? It seems like it would make a nice addition to your delta wing fighter series. As the most numerous fighter currently in the People's Liberation Army Air Force it also seems relevant to current events.
(I know have already asked this,but assuming you didn't receive it ,) pls share the 🎶 @2:52, and yes I agree Rafael is one of the best 4.5++ gen fighter jet but I think the radio used at the nose portion could have been better considering its 2020
Oh sorry i thought you said 40 km but I turned the subtitles on
@@man15h It is a track called "Aphrodite" from Filmstro.com
One thing I have to give the French credit for is maintaining an independent aerospace and defense capability despite the...challenges.
It’s paramount to us !
it's not fully independant however
Of course. After the fremch government losing their nation-state on mamy occasions. It would behoove them to ensure such independence. Theyre lucky they were on the wests side and were strong to be so independent, or else they probably would've been slapped doiwn, embargoed, sanctioned to death, and hell, throw in a US-UK backed coup for good measure.
@@liammarra4003 Can you give examples when they lost their nation-state other than WW2?
France is already occupied by a 5th colonm
Thank you for showing respect to the French baguette. We'll always fight for it.
Its origins are not French. But who cares? Fresh (warm) French baguettes are so awesome. Perfect with butter and ham slices...
@@doogleticker5183 Well in fact if the form isn't originally french it is not the case of the recipe of the past and I am sorry but both are necessary to make it french. And as french I live the invention of the french fries to the belgians who really do know how to make them.
@@jean-loupdesbordes4833 Met or Zonder?
A lot of Indians do not know this - the French have NEVER delayed the delivery of, or asked more money for(after the initial contract has been signed) any aircraft they delivered to the IAF. Unlike the Russians who keep upping the price and making us pay more and more even after a contract has been signed, the French have ALWAYS followed through on time and within budget. Remember how the cost of the INS VIkramaditya ballooned from an initial $700M to $2.5B? Or how they asked for a fortune to integrate the Brahmos to the Su-30s? Or how the Mig-29Ks have to make a trip to the hangar after every sortie due to reliability issues? Russian equipment is proving troublesome. Previous Indian governments were admittedly foolish when Dassault time and again offered to shift the M2000's assembly line here, and offered us the first -5's and -9s that the line produced. I sincerely believe that India should agree to host a future Rafale production line(if offered) and join the Franco-German-Spanish 6th gen fighter project while keeping the AMCA alive.
Agreed
Belgium have been refused a membership to the FCAS project and India would be given the same "you can look but not touch" answer should they ask. France never promised to build Rafale in India by setting up and certifying a production line, it was just Indian Paper Talk. As for France sticking to its cost price.......$255m dollars per unit gave a significant margin!
As an indian I agree with each and everything that you've mentioned.
This is hands down the best and most detailed explanation on Rafale present on any media platform. Your knowledge on this subject is exceptional. Glad I found this channel.
Ok so now step 1 : spell Rafale properly 😁
Thanks for finding the mistake. Autocorrect error.
Aerospace engineer here....agree, great quality content
@@morso1 If not factually correct.
Rafale has not got similar performance to EFT
Rafale engines rated;
Dry 50kN ,Wet 75kN. Top Speed Mach 1.8
EFT engines rated.
Dry 60kN. Wet 90kN. Top Speed Mach 2+
In war setting the EJ2000 give 69kN dry.
German Airforce give Mach 2.35 as the top speed of its EF.
EFT can Supercruise at Mach 1.5 with weapons
Rafale can Supercruise at Mach 1.4 Clean.
Looking at basics like Ferry Range
Rafale with 3 X tanks 3760k
EFT with 3 X tanks. 3700k
When conformal tanks are fitted it would be
greater for Rafale but EF has experimental not production tanks so it is hard to compare as we don't know what extra volumes they offer.
The height capabilities of EFT are 19,812m
The Rafale height capabilities are 15,835m
The possibility of launching a missile from high speed and height give Meteor a 30% increase in range.
So this is not a very good comparison video for the facts that are known are airbrushed .... simply the Rafale does not have similar performance.
For those interested in the Rafale, I recommend the channel of "Até", a retired French navy pilot who flew the Rafale M.
When i saw the baguette, i couldn't help it but stand up and salute.
En chantant la marseillaise :-)
Hello sir, I am amazed with the knowledge you possess on these subjects. I have watched many of your videos before: EXTRAORDINARY!!!!
I worked extensively alongside French Rafales in Africa. Its an amazing Aircraft with fantastic ground crews and pilots. Their mission success rate was very high and its a very mature airframe with a lot of capabilities.
Are there any anecdotes you'd be willing to share without breaking OPSEC?
@@H3x4r35 lotta dead jihadis in Nigeria and Chad/Mali
In the Libyan conflict Gripens provided recognisance flights and didn't get targeted due to their on board abilities. When the airfield they operated from was closed by an accident they flew from the taxiway.....very impressive, just perfect for Ukraine!
@@NATObait You mean when the US war machine destroyed the wealthiest and most functional country in Africa AFTER Gaddafi gave up his nuclear ambitions? Now look at the place... slave markets and Al Quaeda flags. Something to be proud of.... not
The intelligent description of the Libya mission is very compelling, and demonstrates the plane is extremely cost effective when all associated mission costs are factored in.
One of the biggest plus points of purchasing rafale for IAF was the fact that Eurofighter was joint venture and bad ties with any of the participants (UK, our former coloniser for e.g.) nations in future could create lack of cooperation to maintain eurofighter fleet.
While rafale also has some components from other nations but they are replaced by french seeing that India and other future customers would highly prefer it, Although Indian indigenous tejas mk2 will be more than sufficient for IAF's need in future but the French has always came to our rescue as they're the most autonomous nation that is a part of nato.
Don't buy FCAS that is a joint effort 🇧🇪🇪🇸🇫🇷 stick to Tejas and it's 🇺🇲 engines etc.
@@NATObait well we won't, our plans differ as far as 5th and 6th gen fighters are concerned, read about AMCA, it's wind tunnel model is already finished since half a year ago and 1st flight will be before 2025.
The American engines are an emergency substitute until an indigenous one is developed with French assistance.
Took me 3yrs to find such a channel to end my curiosity 😁🙃
yes, where has this channel been? nothing like it on utube.

Lol most french things in a nutshell
Non pas expensive, proportionnelle a ces capacités. Sera jamais aussi chère qu'un F35 sur toute sa durée de vie.
🤣🤣🤣
when you're so early nobody spelled it rafael yet...
rafael is comming
Some dumb politician in India tried to make the Rafale deal a controversy by invoking corruption but he utterly failed. He also involved Former president Francois Hollande and his girlfriend's names as well.
Since he is dumb, he always pronounced the Fighter as Rafael jet, which the Indian media also pounced upon without any regard for cross-verification. It's pathetic but it is what it is. That's why most Indian people who just follow news don't know its original pronounciation.
Actually, the Israeli company, Rafael should sue this Indian politician :)
@@everlearner8974 @Frenchpie he is an i-talian decent so you see he is dumb - 1/10 indian 3/4 italian and remains may be a slough dna. Who wanted to purchase these f-2 version which was just for eye wash - it's like a 2002 model with a outdated interrioirs and avionics. And fool the nation to showcase it's the lates F-3 c
@Frenchpie could be because it's a theoporic name
@Frenchpie 🙂 got that sound and clear - the remaining 36 they want to build in india it self like the Russian multirole one. Not sure will it be manufactured here or assembled here. Need to wait and watch but good info on what has improved and what stays as is
This is a most enlightening video on the capabilities of the Rafale..so far no one had treated this topic with as much depth and indepth knowledge .
The good thing with French is that they during combat exercises dont put on their radars and try not to show the capabilities of their weapons even to their allies. They usually only sniff around at exercisers and try to snap up electronic emissions of other nations radars. The Indians are also very careful about their radars.
Are you usaf pilot ? Do you do exercises with other nations??
That was great. I didn't know France made such a good plane, and the sensors and sensor fusion looks very good.
Good work bro, from India.
🇮🇳🇨🇵🇮🇳🇨🇵🇮🇳🇨🇵🇮🇳🇨🇵🇮🇳🇨🇵
You forgot to mention the stowage holes for baguettes in the cockpit. This, of course, is the most important upgrade that explains its ability to operate missions exceeding 12 hours duration.
Complete and accurate.
There are a few channels that provide quality content, this one is possibly the best of them, at least in my opinion, such luxury in details!
Bravo.
India already paid all the initial costs for the rafale in the first batch, such as weapons, training costs, simulators, infrastructure modification, spare parts, India specific modifications, etc. That's why the initial 36 rafales cost 8.4 billion USD. If India decides to buy 36 more, the next batch will cost only about 4 billion USD. India will most probably order 36 more, for a total of 72 rafales.
@Marcos B Indian centric r&d cost 1.8 bil $
Training/infrastructure cost another 1 bill
So next 36 will come for 5 bill $
One word for the Rafale: Elegance. Much like the French. Bring on the croissants!

Well, looks like an f16 with two engines and take ins and a delta wing
Rafale is the new jet fighter acquired BY India....from France. Thanks for the video from which I learned a lot about this plane.
Yes and Customized To IAF
Further Fighters will be Assembled. made in India 50/50💪🚀
French built aircraft design is beautiful it’s like fine art in the air, really good looking airplanes.I loved the Caravelle airliner!
This plane looks like the f16 just with two engines and the delta wing design
And french planes used to be really fucking ugly
@@kloschuessel773 it doesnt look like a f16 but a mirage 2000 first the f16 didnt have a delta wing ,no canards and only one engine and lots of things are different , the f16 is the plane created by the us but has no resenblance with the rafale the f35 is certainly an ugly plane
@@theric66 all nonsense
Especially saying the f35 is ugly
Totally retarded statement
Have yet to see an ugly stealth plane
@@theric66 boeings version of that one engined stealth plane was indeed to thicc
@@kloschuessel773 stealth plane doesnt mean nice the shape of the f35 is ugly and dont insult me for saying that, grow up and respect the fact that some people dont agree with you
In a video from indian army they talk about the MICA and adapt it on the SU30, in this official video they explain that the Mica is a little superior to the AAMRAM and a lot to its Russian counterpart, making the SU30 a far more efficient plane with it.
Note that the Rafale has 'killed' a F22 twice in simulated combat in the USA....the talent of a pilot is most important too..!!
Dassault Aviation has integrated their combat systems in the late private jet FALCON where the pilots can fly only by visuals on a large screen in any weather with an all weather camera even by a foggy night on a blacked out runway ,very impressive..
Just subscribed and really enjoying the content. 👍 This is probably the only combat aviation channel on CZcams that actually presents factual quality information and refrains from tribal chest thumping. You should have 10 X the subscribers you have now!
Welcome aboard!
I'm thrilled that India choose the Rafale.
It was a logical choice. Russian planes are very outdated , American planes are very expensive and have humiliating user agreement clauses, gripen is not very impressive and the eurofighter has a very complex supply chain since it s an entire EU project. France has been a reliable supplier to India for decades so the trust factor was also there.
@@dranzergigs8333 - How many have been bought? Nuff said.
@@doogleticker5183 36 at the moment.
Although some unconfirmed reports say the air force is demanding 36 more.
@@dranzergigs8333 - Then that is good news! Namaste.
@@doogleticker5183 Indian Navy has started testing Rafale since yesterday.
I hope India buy 110 more of these .
India will have a total of 72 of them, means 36 more on IAF wishlist as of now. The ADA and DRDO/HAL are really pushing for Tejas MK2 around 2025 and the AMCA around 2024. People have doubt over it, watching the track record of hal/iaf's everchanging wish of Tejas's capabilities/flowing of funds. And Tedbf too is on the list which will gonna replace carrier-based mig29ks around 2029.
@ no, I think there is no future of mmrca 2.0. that's in the dustbin now if you see the way things are taking place. There will be very less chance that IN will opt for Rafale, even if it does..the number will certainly not be 90. I think there won't be any rafale in Navy. Both navy and the govt is focusing on TEDBF . mig29ks will start phasing itself out from 2033 and TEDBF first flight is scheduled for 2029. So govt is going in that path. TEFBf is also given green light so that the air force version of it ORCA can be developed quickly on the TEFBf structure. So, if you ask me, then another 36 rafale for IAF will end the saga of buying foreign fighters IF EVERYTHINGS STAYS ON THE RIGHT PATH. And 42 sqrdn cant be achieved before 2035-40
The Rafale needs at least a 70mts catapult to take off. The V. carrier doesn't have one. Maybe it could TO from the sky jump but I am pretty sure that the payload will be severely affected, up to the point of not being worth considering.
Adding the catapult is a terribly complex job that heavily taxes the ship structure, either steam or EMALs.
Unless India buys a new catobar, no Rafales for the Indian Navy.
@@Millennium7HistoryTech Exactly. And chaps who are saying that Rafale for IN are not entirely wrong either. But things have changed in last 2-3 years and IN is seriously thinking to boost the Submarine fleet rather than diverting the fund to a new aircraft carrier, IN has 1 carrier right now i.e INs Vikramaditya and 1 will soon join the fleet in 2022 i.e INs Vikrant. but IN had a plan of constructing a CATOBAR type carrier.
"INS Vishal, also known as Indigenous Aircraft Carrier 2 (IAC-2), is a planned aircraft carrier to be built by Cochin Shipyard Limited for the Indian Navy. It is intended to be the second aircraft carrier to be built in India after INS Vikrant (IAC-1). The proposed design of the second carrier class will be a new design, featuring significant changes from Vikrant, including an increase in displacement. An Electromagnetic Aircraft Launch System (EMALS) CATOBAR system is also under consideration.[8] Its name Vishal means 'giant' in Sanskrit.[9]"-Wikipedia
but as things are panning out, IN wants a large submarine fleet , than constructing a new carrier.
@@Millennium7HistoryTech well we are developing orca for the carriers so I don't think we need rafel-m in airforce maybe we do
India should immediately order 72 more of these birds. They perfectly fit Indian needs
It literally replaces 4 fighters 2 intercepter 2 bombers. That is the main reason it's called the omnirole combact aircraft
do you have 72 more abhinandan ?
@@haseebahmed1320 Abhinandan takes a 1960 MiG. Chases F16 squadron into Pakistan territory and shoots down a 2007 model F16. Then Pak in its sheer terror closes its airspace for 45 days. Imagine if Abhinandan had a Rafale. Ur F16 pilot didn't even get a janaza. Now they won't even take off

One of the best channels on CZcams!!
Correct !!
Rafael is good. But nobody in India can ever forget those beautiful Mirage-2000 fighters launching bunker blasters on the hills of Kargil and of course Balakot air strike.👍👍👍👍
I don't know what you think but I can't look back at destruction with nostalgia, any of it, anywhere.
How u people can still talk about that mess as a victory is just laughable
Greetings from France! Great video, nice to see you again!
Very informative video , very clear explanation. This is also the first video of yours which i was able to understand fully. i have tried many others videos as well.
Glad it was helpful!
Great Info. Now I know why India ordered Rafale to handle a two front war as it does not have dedicated SEAD capability unlike the US.
People comparing Rafale with J20,but let me tell you this *_"A knight in shining armor is a man who has never had his metal truly tested."_*
J20 hasn't been into any war or battle whereas Rafale is battle tested and actively participated in Libyan war and ongoing Syria & Iraq conflict...
Sure. Combat experience in war zones with practically no enemy air power is better than nothing I guess
@@bing3820 😂😂😂 but Turkish army get bombed by this plane bcoz they didn't get it in radar
Libya and Syria with no opposition in the air is not battle tested.
@@jkmcgregor7797 simply not true. ground-to-air-missiles-tested is battle-tested.
@@alainprostbis no opposition fighters not tested
I liked the slow paced way in which the host talked,, if it had been an American or an British host he would have talked noticeably faster, and slow paced talk is a good thing for a listener who is hearing matters that are rather different to what he/she is familiar with.
Greece has just fast tracked the acquisition of 18 Rafales. When facing an aggressive regime, there is diplomacy and there is Rafale diplomacy. I predict additional orders from India very soon. If your neighbours are cool and wealthy, buy Gripen. If not, and if America doesn't really care about you (like Greece or India), Rafale is a good option. If your sky is safe, do as the French, have a Baguette!
Great video and content. Nice to see France still has a few strong points in its industry and engineering. It's probably worth mentioning that the French (since De Gaulle) try to maintain they sovereignty and independence when it comes to strategic industries such as defense or energy. This is one of the big competing of the last few governments which have taken damaging steps against French capability to remain truly independent militarily.
Nevertheless, the Rafale if an incredible machine and a thing of beauty, but to be fair Dassault have done it before. The various Mirage variants are incredible machines not totally obsolete today, and in my eye the most amazing looking fighter.
This jet is such a beauty
I salute you sir. Thank you for this excellent analysis. You definitely know what you are talking about. You have a new subscriber.
I hadn’t previously realized that the Rafale had such a high loiter time or super cruise capabilities.
Rafale can Supercruise at Mach 1.4 Clean
EFT can Supercruise at Mach 1.5 with weapons
F22 can Supercruise at Mach1.82 with weapons
Impressive but even Gripen E claims it can Supercruise at Mach 1.2 with weapons and its top speed is Mach 2.
Great aircrafts. But by favourite is still the Mirage of the french ACs :)
Good on ya France. Yet another really very fine fighter aircraft.
I live in France and saw 2 Rafale training in the sky. Then suddenly the two of them had like a bubble popping around them ? Then 2 consecutive big BOOM, making my windows shake ! It was 2 days ago and the news said those 2 Rafale were training going past the wall of sound and that it was the cause of the big BOOM ! Such an incredible plane !
@Pavan Kumar They do in France, it's not that unusual
Astra - Matra - MICA IR/EN - Meteor
MICA NG bientôt ;)
I feel India should have gone for JAS as we could have brought more. India should have taken license production of Rafale. Compared to PLAAD, IAF has less fighters. We need atleast 200-300 of rafales.
Very nice video man, you really deserv way more subscribers than what you have !
A good video 👍 after a long time.
Can Brahmos be integrated with Rafael?!
Pretty sure it is. But the customisation specifics are not made public. But just looking at the price that India has paid, its pretty obvious they asked for Brahmos mounting capability
No because brahmos is of russian origin . Its nearly impossible ...We are buying Hammer missile though
@@mayankrajsinghchauha brahmos was jointly developed by India and Russia. So India definitely would like the option of arming rafale with brahmos.

Note that France is a very small country but the 5th military power in the world with a nasty Nuclear Submarine fleet ,builds some of the best commercial planes with AIRBUS ,build the most effective nuclear power plants/reactor all over the world(including China) and has a massive space program with ARIANE E-SPACE....also makes great cheese,bread and best wine in the world...not bad...(and lose women..!!)

Rafale spercruise at M1.4 clean. Gripen E supercruise at M1.2+ with 6missiles and centertank. Rafale can carry 14000kg of fuel an weapons. Gripen E can carry 8500kg of fuel and weapons and need much less fuel.
"Need much less fuel" I wonder why 🤔
Rafale supercruise at Mach 1.4 with 6 Mica missiles and Mach 1.2 with 4 Mica missiles and a 1250 l center tank . It is the only fighter who can carry 150% of its empty load.
@@unepintade less drag and single engine.
@@MS-pm7rh 14/10*100=140% 8.5/8*100=106%. Rafale can take 14/8.5*100=165% of Gripen E load. To compare usefull load, we have to guess the difference in fuel consumption: Gripen E have internal fuel of 3400kg and Rafale may need 180% of that. 1.8*3400=6120. 6120-1400=1420. Gripen E can take 8500-3400=5100. 6120/5100*100=120% of useful load, compared to Gripen E. Yes, Rafale seem to be a very potent fighter airplane in many different missions. Just as Gripen E. One reason is the close coupled delta-canard configuration. The two fighters is the only ones in the world with that.
@@atlet1 that was a joke ...

It's because of stealth fingers.
To me, this is the fighter Indonesia supposed to purchase. Good for India...
Aren't you guys developing a 5th gen aircraft with south Korea? Better would be to invest in that directly.
@@Defaultrafale12
Yes, n now that project is back on move reportedly, but if we already have the Rafales, that's gonna be a big card to counter the SC sea tension.
@@apnk_1828 that's true. We indians also got them. They are great jets. But really costly for us though.
It will be nice if you got the rafale we could easily co-operate together on the same platform. I think you guys should also join the quad. We democracies need to unite
Rafale welcome to india
You should compare MICA to AIM-120B or C, not D. The MICA was made in early 90s and was first used by the Mirage 2000-5.
Rafale remains a better strike package as it can deliver more weapons than EFT.
EFT remains a better interceptor as it has height and speed advantages.
That is a basic distinction as both are capable of switching to their next best roles. But Rafale is Nuclear capable ( but only with French type) and a carrier version is available and suitable for medium carrier decks due to its size.
Neither compare with F22 or F35 though due to 5th generation modernization.
Greece bought 18 rafale s to replace mirage2000 egm . Excellent choice
these planes where basically offered to Grece i heard if Greece can't afford to pay the bill goes to the French taxpayers as the French government will foot the bill.
@philippe klopfer we"ll see about that.
If you feel an obligation to show a baguette if you show a French fighter, then please show a hot dog when you show an American fighter.
Fair enough! I will remember that!
Vive la France, vive la confiture! 😍
Excellent informative and interesting. Big huge THANK YOU!!!!
Congrats from Pakistan to India for Rafale Acquisition
I think we should order 90 more as, 45 for IAF and 45 for IN as Navy also needs extra fighters.
Reason is, we planned 126 aircraft, with the new uniform command policy we will have all 90 available when required. Rafale is very costly so we cannot invest more even if we want and we should spend the rest on Indian projects. Having one plane will save ISE costs and SCM costs as well. ( Having one more foreign plane F18 for IN even though good will not have these advantages )
Rafale naval version may not be compatible with vikramaditya or any of the future aircraft carriers of Indian navy which under construction as rafale naval version doesn't come with foldable wings.
@@amitwali3565 Yes, but its already smaller in size than F18 so thats the reason it does not have and need those foldable wings
Who are ”we”?
@@bjornnordstrom Indians, as the heading pointed to India so I used it general as its about Rafale and Indian aircraft purchases
@@bjornnordstrom Story is around 2004 India put out a request for 126 medium weight fighters, Rafale won in around 2012 but nothing moved forward. In 2016 GOI decided to purchase 36 Rafale as stop gap and so India is still short by 90 aircrafts from original plan after 16 years :) . There is again a tender out in market for 114 MWF aircrafts. There is also a 2nd tender for 57 carrier based aircrafts for 2nd carrier. That is short summary and background :).
Wonder if there would be an episode with the eurofighter upcoming upgrades? Also, I cannot see any coverings of the Eurofighter - why not?
1:10 and there's also that there was pressure to build a new fighter for the navy which the 2000 wasn't.
If there was only the air force i wonder if they would have went for the 2000-9.
Regarding active cancellation it is physically doable and it seems believable that it would work against older radars, but against an Aesa that can use multiple frequencies and quickly switch frequency, i have a hard time believing they would be able to effectively cancel the signal.
Theoretically active cancellation could still work but would require a powerful computer and highly capable sensors. With the advances in computing power and sensors over the last decades, I find it plausible that such methods could still be effective, at least to some degree. There would also be a variety of other electronic warfare methods available using the same hardware and some combination of these should be able to make it much more difficult to isolate the Rafale as a target. Enough to give the Rafale an advantage in many scenarios anyways.
@@stupidburp I see how lightning kick reaction times or knowledge of the frequencies program the enemy will use - assuming it's not randomized - would help but how could computer power solve that problem?
@@Tetemovies4 It helps to react to multiple simultaneous transmissions on different frequencies and determine the matching opposite waveforms for each without delay. With a single or just a few sources this can be done with simple hardware - like noise cancellation headphones. But with a thousand different channels hopping frequencies in different patterns it becomes a much more demanding task. There are other secret ways that can use computing power to enhance electronic warfare and I am only vaguely aware of how a few of them might work but I do know that processing power is required.
In case of fooling older Radars, it was already proven that this is possible with a simple hook on ECM-Pod. czcams.com/video/6KBmv6HBltM/video.html
So few rounds, it is basically a sniper, one shot one kill dogfighter
(I know df isn't even considered)
Great post! Big fan here
