No. Rafale is even inferior to Typhoon. At least Typhoon has electronically controlled air inlet, while Rafale uses ram inlet.

What comes with that price? Rouble value dropped, so overall costs dropped as well.
Does that come with spares and training?

The powerful data fusion algorithms combine and compare the data gathered by all Rafale sensors, and accurately position and identify targets. It’s much more than simple correlation as it gives the pilot an accurate and unambiguous tactical picture. One of the key advantages of the system is its ability to identify and classified the type of target/threat, by using either the Spectra suite or the TV sensor of the FSO. When all tracks are positively identified, the system automatically creates a synthetic image with all enemy and friendly tracks shown in a clear and explicit way. Off-board sensor can also contribute data to the integrated tactical air picture, via the datalink. Wingmen or AEW aircraft can feed their data to the leader’s system, thus helping target-sorting and co-operation within the formation. Multichannel target acquisition/ tracking associated with smart sensor fusion key-enabler which will radically change the face of air warfare. This combination of multisensor technology and smart data fusion significantly increases mission success rates through enhanced crew awareness and improved aircraft survivability. With its multisensor technology, its advanced data fusion management system, and its remarkable Man-Machine Interface (MMI), the Rafale clearly stands in a category of its own and no other fighter in the world has such a wide array of systems at its disposal.

jhelb wrote:
Su 35 is getting the same MIRES system,AESA radar with side radars and new data-link that the PAK FA is getting.That's a very decent sensor fusion.
Austin wrote:No where its mentioned in the link on Su-35 there is sensor fusion , I think only PAK-FA might have true sensor fusion in Russian aircraft like how Rafale or JSF has it.
An information management system integrated with onboard subsystems and a new phased array radar system with long-range aerial target detection have been installed in the aircraft, which is currently undergoing preliminary testing.
The distinctive feature of Su-35 is the employment of a new suite of onboard instruments. Its core is the information management system (IMS), which integrates functional, logical, informational and software subsystems into a single complex that ensures the interaction between the crew and equipment.
A new avionics set based on the digital information management system, new radar, new engines with increased thrust and swiveling thrust vector are the distinctive features of this fighter jet.

So Indian Su-30 currently lacks that capability which integrated all the data from multiple sources
some radar antennas in the nose that reflect waves from the walls of nose and unify the waves?

When are you guys expecting to get the first Super Su 30?
Austin wrote:Its under negotiation , The last interview with NIIP chief mentioned IAF was not sure to go for a new AESA or Irbis like radar for BARS upgrade.
Austin wrote:I would rather have a Irbis like radar fleet wide then AESA or few aircraft.
Austin wrote:Can some one tell me the advantage of getting Source Code of Radar that India Defence also insist upon ?
One advantage which I always knew was getting source code would allow integration of Indian Weapons into the aircraft without having to rely on OEM to integrate it , For eg India recently tested its BVR Astra on Su-30MKI as India has BARS source code.
What is the other advantage in getting source code of radar ?
Thank You

UAI was designed to break the cycle of improved weapons carriage coming with scucessive software blocks because the complexity of integrating the weapon, then upgrading the software block meant that you could only do 1 economically at a time.
If you design or upgrade your weapon to be UAI compatible, all you need to do is perform store separation and establish the physical launch envelope, there is no mission-system integration work. The Weapon talks to the UAI interface onboard the weapon that then converts the information/data to something the mission computers can comprehend.
