What are the new capacity of F4.3 vs F4.2 ?
Thanks to better CNT RAM interwoven into its skin, F-35 beats even the Raptor in stealth. F-22 is very maintenance inclusive, so that's why perhaps they didn't want to export it. F-35, on the other hand, was for export from the very beginning.Strangely the US refused to sell F22 even to very close ally (Japan) and not F35...
For me it's because the RCS tech and RCS mastery inside F22 are better.
Today, the F-35 appears not to be interoperable. Beyond the Rafale, I ask the question, is it interoperable with the Typhoon? Is it even interoperable with the F-16 or F-22? This is a good question that you should look into and you would find that in reality it is not.
This is not at all what was normally defined within NATO to be interoperable.
I read a lot about small drones, okay, but in Ukraine for example we have a problem which is the following: no one has dominated the sky.
However, in a modern conflict, if we manage to dominate the sky, drones generally no longer fly much.
Same magiciel that those of F35 ? the same one that doesn't work ?We are going to integrate a magiciel.
Far far less space in F-35 than F-22, so it's not a proper explanation.Thanks to better CNT RAM interwoven into its skin, F-35 beats even the Raptor in stealth.

The real difficulty we have is delivering the planes because we always have, and we are not the only ones, supply chain problems. The repercussions of Covid, with a halt in production and a rapid recovery whether for us or commercial aviation, mean that subcontractors are having difficulty hiring, are having difficulty finding the right pace for this increase in power and so we all suffer from it. This is not only true in France, it is also true in the United States, we have the same difficulty with our American suppliers. It's difficult on deliveries, it will be in 2023 and it will still be in 2024 until the chain is completely back in working order and in line with our rates.
“If I don’t find opportunities in France I will go elsewhere”
So yes, the Chinese will take time before making a combat aircraft of the level of a Rafale, but they will get there, there is no reason why they cannot get there. In 30 years they will know how to do it. It’s easier in space in a way. You see the Indians they send rockets and it goes pretty much to the right place, it doesn't explode after takeoff, it works. The Chinese also make objects that are increasingly “bizarre”, in quotation marks.

That is because selling f22 is prohibited by US law. US government cannot act against US law.Strangely the US refused to sell F22 even to very close ally (Japan) and not F35...
For me it's because the RCS tech and RCS mastery inside F22 are better.

CNT RAM used in F-35 takes no extra space but is interwoven into its skin. Which means its entire skin consists of CNT RAM which absorbs Radio Frequency from 0.5GHz to 60GHz. This itself makes it lot more stealthy than Raptor.Far far less space in F-35 than F-22, so it's not a proper explanation.
Add the overall external shape : smooth for F22, with much curbs in F35. So NO.
Maintenance? Sure F22 is greedy of maintenance, but F35 is not known to be very reliable...
Japan knew very well F22, and is a rich country, so once again not the answer.
Software define radio is part of F4.1Software-defined radio.

Cyber protection is software... Basic communication with high rate and good latency is available with F4.1 but if you want to use the communication system to implement multistatic radar you have to wait for F4.3. But passive triangulation with several Rafale is one of the first objective.Today we are in the F4 standard with three deliveries in this standard: F4.1, F4.2 and F4.3. The F4 will bring collaborative combat: F4.3 is the accomplished version of connectivity with the ability to manage a certain number of things with digital radios. The F4.2 will be the Mica NG and with the F4.1 there are many modifications to the sensors and radar. The F4.1 is delivered, the F4.2 should be delivered at the end of 2024 and F4.3 at the end of 2026.
I guess the hardware comes with F4.1, but all of the software comes with 4.3.

Passive detection : with Spectra and OSF or even with radar thanks to multistatism ?But passive triangulation with several Rafale is one of the first objective.
I think you are correct. SPECTRA/OSF and future Multistatic radar would be fully capable of passive detection cum tracking. Rafale is really evolving into a more potent fighter with these upgradesPassive detection : with Spectra and OSF or even with radar thanks to multistatism ?
In other word is it possible to use multistatism on one or several Rafale radar(s) in a passive way ?
