Description

Stock recreation of the French multirole fighter aircraft Dassault Rafale. One of my favorite modern fighters, so it was nice to make! I think it turned out good, tried some new building techniques on this. I managed to add realistic landing gear that are relatively stable. It’s not the fastest, but it controls well.

Controls

Engine mode is changed from RCS. After liftoff press 1 to unlock the landing gear and gear action group to retract them. Locking them when retracted isn’t necessary, although they might wobble around a little bit. When landing press 2 to deploy them and 1 to lock them again. (Check notes for potential issues)

Mid-air refueling

Now this is a feature I’m proud of! The plane can do a mid-air refuel with my other version of the craft. https://kerbalx.com/JuhoSkl/Dassault-Rafale-Refuel I’m gonna warn you, its extremely difficult. More information on the page of the other craft.

Built in the SPH in KSP version 1.8.1.

Notes

-The landing gear don’t always lock after opening them, I’m trying to come up with a fix.
-Just realized that you can retract/extend the landing gear in one stage with toggle hinge. Fixing that sometime.
-Like with my other craft, Restock is highly recommended.
