The LWR sensor comprises of 3 optical apertures behind the rectangular window. It has been difficult to obtain a clear & close-up pic of this sensor so far.

Whoa! That was hell of a collison.:shock: Pilots must have loved the kick.🤪 Composite body much better than metal body. I wish if a closeup pic of DDM was available.

Ah! I thought our debate was over but u r back recharged. 'ur' is short-hand, not slang. Using shorthands on mobile is very common. U don't know diff. b/w slang & shorthand then ur English education is questionable. I told u i type on mobile & save the draft, no access to internet in office or...

Why no other example like this in the world? Why not use 1 or 2 rectangular screen(s) & collimate?

When this was planned since 1980s in Rafale then why no other example like this in the world? :confused1: 🤔 Why not use 1 or 2 rectangular screen(s) & collimate? Why not improve HMDS?

It appears like that from side bcoz the center MFD has been extended so close to the pilot. It even partially blocks the side MFDs. This is very unusual layout not seen on other 4++ gen jets. Some legacy jets are even moving to 1 or 2 MFD upgraded layout. I also wonder why such small jets don't...

Rafale pilots relaxed on the inclined ejection seat. The pilot seems to be very close to the MFDs. It is a very compact cockpit.

The F5/6 MLU has already mentioned better & perhaps more sensors. U don't need a big aperture long range radar like the main front radar. But a short/medium range for spherical situational awareness & LOAL capability. When u say SPECTRA antenna, it should be clear what type. Also, if CFT on...

The "Indian" Rafales have added 3 more SPCTRA equipment, 1 under exhaust looking backward which is most probably a low band jammer apart from the usual high band jammer. The other 2 are fixed on cheek but it is not revealed yet what exactly it is, again low band jammer to supplement high band...

Yes but people create panic when it comes to addition of TVC. For the actuator assembly system there are lighter & stronger alloys & composite materials with thermal resistance. Pure metal is not used. When a team has decided to implement TVC then they will obviously calculate the overhead &...

correct, i also said that blinspot is only underneath but extra H/w & lines of S/w code require more salary to be paid to engineers, cost of jet will increase. Just like "Indian" Rafales got 3 extra SPECTRA sensors but i'm not sure if they are mini-radar or jammer, similarly 5 mini-radar...

I also said that the 2 DDM sensors fixed back to back on sides of rudder provide hemispherical coverage but the wing & fuselage acts as a blindspot for bottom sector. How many times will i repeat? From the HUD video, did the DDM sensor help in maintaining continious lock over F-22 & display...

Your English is unusual. But if i understand right then u r saying that all jet fighters with EO sensors can exchange info over their private network. Yes, obviously but if it is 1 jet Vs 1 jet then what will u do? Also, what if links are jammed by enemy's Electronic Warfare? I also said that...

:facepalm::doh: Do u even follow this thread & read properly before impulsively replying? :eric: R U aware of diff. b/w 4th gen design & 5th gen stealth design? Didn't i mention hemispherical coverage of DDM? But the wing & fuselage makes a blindspot for them in bottom sector & for stealth...

Foreign language? English is global common language. What's the difficulty in it? i don't thin any of my sentences were emantically wrong. See again u r using "claim", "arguement". Just forget it & use basic word slike 'said', 'stated', 'typed', 'wrote', 'discussion', etc. We r not qualified to...

In Engineering world nothing is ever over. Mentally surrendering & complaining w/o suggesting kind of people are unfit for engineering. If they can modify F-15, F-16, F-18, they can definitely modify any jet if required. The Netherlands F-35 for example has a parachute hump above engine. In TVC...

I have already given u the answer that it depends on customers. Additional S/w code & testing required, all customers may not agree to pay extra but there is a possibility in future MLU, mat after 10/15 years. We have to wait & see.

I have not used personal words like liar, dishonest, etc or slangs or -ve words like arguement, lecturing, fallacy. Teens, typical 20s people do it & learn the hard way as they grow up. After reuesting also u r not listening. Nothing has "pissed me off" but if it does to u then it is ur...

The F-35's VTOL requirement derailed TVC otherwise LM would have definitely done TVC in F-35. Keep yourself in their shoes, wouldn't you? But technically TVC is just having modified actuators & avionics code, so it can still be done but with extra cost which customer nations may not pay for A &...

I have already mentioned multiple possible reasons of not using TVC is some jets such as cost of upgrading massive fleet, hestitancy & skepticism, etc. But the regular examples cannot be ignored. There will always be people on both sides to agree/disagree for imlementation. I'm a middle aged IT...
