Rafale - RAF Cosford Air Show 2018

The most graceful, perfect line design of ALL fighter jets.

There is no more beautifull jet than the Rafale !!!

Extremely agile and fully integrated into the French military. A resounding success!!!!.

This french plane is amazing.....

Dynamic!! That rate of roll and repositioning is insane!

Cette petite livrée à Avec du rouge est superbe 🇫🇷 Le rafale est un avion exceptionnel 😄 made in France

The RAFALE is the only plane ever unbeaten in competition. And WINS the title of the best European planes in competition by winning all his duels against all the European planes..it even won against American planes. THE BEST

Desoult has one of the most beautiful airstream shaped aircraft in the World!

That was awesome! The Rafale is better than I could of ever imagined

Looking forward to this display in 4 weeks time at RIAT. As ever superb display by the french

Typhoon is agile and powerful I admit, but Rafale keeps its speed up despite the Gs.... it always makes the most dynamic displays. Russians are amazing slow speed fighters and post-stall maneuverers but the Su-57 design for example is a bit draggy.... same large wings as the F-16 F Scamp prototype which was a high bleeder. Simple calculator allows quick comparison between Rafale and Typhoon : with 50% internal fuel and two missiles, Wing loading for Rafale including canards area will give 220 kg/m2, which is amazing. F-16 and Mig-21 average is 400. Kg/m2. Mirage 2000 is 250 clean. Rafale corner speed is among the best : 330 kts. At this speed it already has the best turn radius and max G (11), overriding SBS (surpassable back stop) to go over 9. Typhoon is of course better in thrust to weight ratio but will always give 9G, like the F-16, itself G-limited below 300 kts. In roll rate I again givevthe advantage to tge French aircraft. Though its engines can't give more than 7,5 t each due to design constraint. It was designed in 86.... Anyway both aircraft will never fight each other ! : )

A beauty. In my opinion superior to the typhoon.

It has a great maneuverability

100% style agility multirole jet fighter Rafale still the best !

nice paint job..

i went to this air show and it was great. it marked the 100th year of the RAF and it was one of the most amazing things to happen so far in my life. The fact that some of the jets were going so fast and they were sooooooo loud (esspacially the typhoon). and the red arrows was probs the best thing their. So i just wanted to thank everyone who helped made it happen, it was amazing. :)

To be acquired by INDIA soon. 😊

Beautiful 😍 sight! Impressive!

When you know you are watching the best multirole aircraft at the day being.

Very nice display, thanks for posting.
