Introduction

My third and final try to build the most accurate replica of the Rafale. (I know I’m obsessed
with the Rafale, but this my favorite plane :p)
My challenge was to build the Rafale as fast as possible (Built in 4 hours) , with the best quality possible (169 parts).


Description

I think I can’t do a better Rafale on my whole life, and it’s the best Rafale replica on KerbalX. This one can go to mach 2.5 (850 m/s) with afterburners, and mach 0.9 without. The dimensions are the same than the real plane.
The airframe was inspired by Xenome one here
Enjoy!

Update #1:
- All the airframe was rebuilt, using most of Xenome’s advices

  • This craft is compatible with Textures Unlimited Recolour Depot (IMLL1 makes me discover the mod, this guys is awesome) to have this awesome grey/black paint! (see screenshots below)
  • Brand new video!

Edit: Don't use yaw, or the plane will do some strange barrels
Edit 2: Hope Servo loves it! (I still don't know)
