Very high level of agility ! Incredible aerodynamics. Rafale flying at very slow speed as 15 knots and then quickly accelerate and maneuver at high speeds. Its delta wing and active close-coupled canard helps to maximize its maneuverability to withstand -3.6g to 9g, and a remarkable 11g in case of emergency. The Rafale's digital fly-by-wire flight controls maintain stability and reduce the minimum landing speed to an astonishing 115 knots.
The ability to adapt their speed to the specific needs of a mission is one of the many attributes that make these aircraft so formidable.
During my time filming at RIAT 2023, I was utterly captivated by the awe-inspiring performance of this fighter jet 🛩️

🌟 What Sets the Rafale Apart:
The Rafale, designed to excel in air and naval missions, effortlessly handles air supremacy, interdiction, reconnaissance, ground support, in-depth strikes, anti-ship missions, and even nuclear deterrence. This 'omnirole' aircraft by Dassault Aviation is a force to be reckoned with in the world of military aviation.

🛩️ The Rafale vs. The Competition:
In the competitive world of fighter jets, two major players emerge—Eurofighter and Dassault. In this video, we'll compare the Rafale with the Eurofighter Typhoon to determine which one reigns supreme. The Rafale's capabilities span both short and long-range operations, making it an ideal choice for spying, precise strikes, land and sea assaults, and serving as a nuclear deterrent. On the other hand, the Eurofighter Typhoon, a multi-role fighter developed by the UK, Germany, Italy, and Spain, specializes in air-to-air and air-to-ground missions.

🌐 International Air Tattoo Highlights:
RIAT 2023 was a showcase of exceptional talent, and one of the standout moments was the Armee de l'Air of France's Rafale performance. The pilot's incredible high G turns at astonishing speeds made it a challenging feat to capture with the camera. The descent to the runway for landing has to be seen to be believed! It was a spectacle of unmatched skill and precision.

🏆 Award-Winning Rafale Display:
The French Rafale's astounding performance at RIAT 2023 earned it not one but two prestigious awards—the Sir Douglas Bader Trophy for Best Individual Flying Display and the As the Crow Flies Trophy for Best Overall Flying Demonstration, as judged by FRIAT.

🛫 Carrier-Capable:
The Rafale's versatility extends to carrier-based operations, allowing it to take off from STOBAR-configured aircraft carriers without modifications.

France is set to deliver an additional 26 Dassault Rafale fighter jets to India, and discussions are underway for a contract that would entail the construction of three more diesel-electric Scorpene submarines by Naval Group. These contracts hold significant value, estimated at approximately €9 billion ($10 billion).

This announcement follows Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi's recent two-day visit to Paris, where India was the guest of honor for the 14th July Bastille Day celebrations. As a part of this visit, both nations jointly released a document titled "Horizon 2047," outlining their future collaborative efforts, including matters related to defense.

While these agreements have received approval from India's Defense Acquisition Council and have been publicly disclosed by the Indian defense minister, the formal signing of contracts between the involved parties is not anticipated until mid-2024.

Prepare to be amazed by the Rafale's gravity-defying maneuvers, sleek design, and unparalleled agility in this exclusive video. It's a journey you won't want to miss! 🛫🌍👍
