I understand your reaction, I do not judge it negatively, you are just a Turk living in another culture.
It is difficult for someone who walks on smooth ground to realize through blinders that fighters pilots around the world are another paste.
F-35 religions ceremomies through the normal world.....

They are trained just like you Its a new jet both of the countries are using it newly also the qatari one has the everything HAF one has they paid a great amount of money. muh pilots qataris got them earlier they have better training against other jets because of the exercises they joined.

France offered everything to the qataris as well don't cope
Greek pilots training and exercise under NATO Standards.
Huge diffrent.

Rafale will level up the hellenic air force, this is reality
Aerial warfare goes in the 21st century, of course this goes with the F-16V program if US gives the proper weapons.
I would like to see some rafale on board video chasing f16. We do not really know how they compare to each other since there is nothing shared from anatolian eagle. I am sure Greeks would be eager to demonstrate superiority of rafales against f16s.
I do not think there will be such a video. Rafale strikes without the enemy taking them by surprise. As they proved in Libya and elsewhere.
For the dogfights, Mirage 2000 is the best as shown in the field.

Greeks will have a good power factor with those Rafales. If they do have meteor missiles on it.
But biggest cons for them is lack of experience in real battle.
Anyway, time will show us how they will be used effectively...

Can you respect the terms of use of the forum for once? Are you children or adults?
I start and believe that if you do not insult each other for a day you will get deprivation syndrome!

So what happens if f16 intercepted by a rafale. They will "shoot down" without noticing and go back. I hardly think so.
To have an bvr fight, one side should fire its missile when they engage. An f16 is capable of doing it. Then, why there has been dog fights between both countries?
Interceptions has been for warning and sometimes power demonstration , not for causing war.

Are you sure about this, that is, the Qatari Rafale has the same sensors as the Greek one?
Of course, I do not forget two more variables that are the human factor as well as the training, ie the Greek pilot.
Dont forget that France offers and gave to Greece weapons systems that other allied countries do not offer.


Qatar is the country with money, France would offer them more then they can offer you :D .

In quantities that's true.
The point is if there is a difference between the export edition Rafale, like the ones that Qatar bought, and the ones that came directly from France active air force battalion to us.

The fastest track integration in the service of a new and complex weapons system in Greece and beyond. View attachment 38355


this is a small step for turkey, a giant leap for greece 😅. I'm joking they look so fit. However, there is no competition between buyers and sellers. I think that is what greece should think about

Next leap are the NLOS systems and the modernization of the AH-64A .
Unfortunately, due to the economic crisis of the last decade, the leaps must be aimed at reducing this distance.

He does not understand, I told him. A first difference is the special coating that reducing the RCS which the Qataris do not have.

I hope we succeed it.
There are some very good companies, such as Intracom, Theon, ODDY, but we need more boost. I am sure that we are in the dawn of a new beginning.

Had Greek air force had this capability before Rafales?
