If the French and Germans really want to be the first to make a sixth generation aircraft, it will cost several hundred billion dollars. What cost the Americans dearly with the third, fourth and fifth generations was being the first to set foot in it and make all the mistakes while the others were able to start on their bases.

Glad to see the Marine Nationale working together with the US Navy. Let's pray for many years of collaboration and Friendship. The legacy of Lafayette continues on.
The French after WW2 said simply that that Invasion Bull Shit will never happen again. They had to use British and American Aircraft for years. Then the Dassault made this no longer a problem in 1952 and beyond.
What an amazing ship a us carrier is. So big. Our rafale seems to be parked between two 747 if you compare his size! 🤣🤣🤣 God bless America! Vive la France! 🇺🇸 🇫🇷
Love this amazing video. I'm so proud of this cooperation between France and the US. We might have a complicated relation sometimes, but never forget : We love you, american brothers.
US sailors are among the best in the world, and certainly they operate the most advanced technology. The fact that they appreciate our Rafale is the best praise it can get. The haters can hate all they like, nobody cares 😊😂 stop comparing the Rafale to the F22 and/or F35: not the same specs, not the same budgets... The Rafale has a solid claim to be the best fighter out there, whenever there is a fight to be fought. But stealth fighters are designed to kill their target before the fight even begins (which is hardly fair but deadly efficient nonetheless...)
Si le rafales peuvent aponter sur un porre avion américain ce n'est pas juste lié au fait que cet avion est extraordinaire (même si c'est le cas). C'est surtout que nous sommes la seul nation au monde, excepté les usa, a savoir le faire 😅
The F4 version of the rafale can detect any plane with low signatures using different radar type (infrared radars etc), so this propaganda of "invisibility" is definitely over. But it doesn't matter, France and the US are friends and only the US produces real 5th gen fighters jets (the Russian and Chinese version are not true 5th gen), so we are safe.
Im glad France pulled out of creating the Eurofighter as Dassault are far superior at designing aircraft. I repair 2 systems on the Rafale and it is a serious killing machine far better than the Eurofighter and could hold its own against an F22 or F35. French aeronautics are top tier
I admire patriotism and the Rafale is an excellent aircraft no question but what an absurd comment. The Rafale could never hold its own against an F-35 let alone an F-22. Why? because it would dead before the pilot knew they were around. As for 'better than the Typhoon'? Well many will argue THAT one .... What is for sure is that France cannot put up a 5th Gen F-35 suppression fighter with a bomb truck called a Typhoon. Now THAT is a massive combination.

I hope we're always in such good terms that we can cooperate like that. Also, can't wait for the first French stealth fighter. Stealth fighters look so boring to me, if anyone can make a sexy stealth, it's gonna be the French.
"can't wait for the first French stealth fighter" he is right there in front of you ... Rafale... The "stealth shape" is not the only way to reduce the signature, the rafale not only has a smaller signature because of his shape and his cover, but more important, he has the SPECTRA auto defense system that covers the gap to reduce his signature even more, and the capabilities of the SPECTRA system is totally classified... So I can tell you all these coment saying that he is "just a 4th gen" are 100% wrong ... Now the F4 version of the rafale has multiple type of radars mounted, some of them designed to track any jet with small signature, that mean, any 5th gen fighter. Considering these "stealth jets" put all their eggs in the same basket "stealth" limiting themselves (less maneuverable etc), It's safe to say that the rafale is probably the best jet on the market now, no matter the gens. Note: Dassault also produced the NEURON drone which is a 5th gen with the same size as a Rafale (type it on youtube...)
@@johndoe-cd9vt look, kid, everybody counts the Rafale as 4th gen, including France and Dassault Aviation. I get that you're in love and love is blind, but if the Rafale was anywhere near as stealthy as a 5th gen, the Dassault marketing team would never shut up about it. SCAF is on the way, it'll be the French NGAD, don't worry. The Rafale is still the prettiest girl in the skies, don't worry. Just don't go trying to bend facts.

a competition between the Rafale M and the F/A18 in India saw the Rafale victory in all areas! we should not look at the Rafale as an inferior aircraft, it remains an effective fighter, capable of erasing its radar signature! The Rafale has repeatedly beaten much more powerful and faster planes, like this poor Eurofighter, in 2009, 18 fights, 16 to 2 for the Rafale! The Rafale remains the only aircraft in the world to reach 11G positive! we are impatiently awaiting the future French aircraft carrier, the PA NG (Porte Avion Nouelle Génération) of 75,000 tonnes, 310 meters long and 80 meters wide, it will be able to take on board the Rafale M F4 and F5, as well as the SCAF (future 6th generation aircraft Franco German, and Spanish) cooperation to reduce the cost of development! but Dassault Aviation remains capable of building a plane alone! the Rafale still holds several records: I repeat what I wrote above, it remains the only aircraft to reach 11G positive! for a 10 ton class aircraft (Rafale C 9850 kg) it carries almost 100% of its empty weight in armament (9500 kg) it carries almost 150% in armament and fuel (14650 kg), it can make a slow passage at 80 knots, it can land on an aircraft carrier in smooth configuration at 100 knots, otherwise, it lands at 120 knots! is slower than an F/A18! (135 knots)
"poor Eurofighter"? Sorry dude your arrogance was unnecessary. Especially given the Typhoon has outsold the Rafale and without any Government 'support' (ie bribes). And the 'SCAF'? 😏 It doesn't even exist in CGI let alone designed or metal cut because as always France is arguing with its 'partners'. Good luck beating the Germans at that. It will never be built. And then you mention the PANG. Well well well. What happened with the last one to be built alongside the two British carriers reducing unit costs? Oh that's right France ran out of money and left the consortium like it always does. It will do the same with SCAF. The Rafale is an excellent aircraft but its not as good as you suggest and when you slag off others to make it look better it proves the point.
The Eurofighter thyphoon is better than the Rafale you are a clown only a indian nationalist would speak like these, you never heard about bribery and politics
@@gregft1979 It depends of what you call "its generation", because the gen are something invented by the US ... The rafale is a "4.5" by US standards but I can tell you the only competitors of this jet are the F22 and F35 and it's not even the case now with the F4 Version of the Rafale since he has many features in commun with the F35 (Data sharing, data fusion, habitlity to detect and track any stealth fighter jets by using different types of radar and computing the datas automatically for the pilot)
I am French and Russian and I love the Rafale but don't know if i should support the Americans or not 😂. In all seriousness though, this is a cool collaboration Rafale looks so slick.
Faut reconnaître que les portes avions Americain sont les roi des mers, qu'elle puissance qu'ils dégagent !!! Dommage que les Anglais n'est pas franchi le pas pour leur porte aéronefs en les dotants depuis le début de catapulte et de brins d'arrêt. La polyvalence entre nos trois marine en aurait été bien décupler 😢 Vive l'Amérique et vive la France !!!
Des alliés qui détruisent les joyaux technologiques français pour leur profit en utilisant des méthodes très très discutables. Des alliés qui oublient souvent que nous étions à leur côté pour virer les anglais et ne se souviennent que de WW2 et notre refus de les suivre en Irak. Des alliés qui font de très bons ennemis par moment. De Gaulle les avaient bien cernés. Ils sont hégémoniques avant toutes choses.
Those Rafale might or not be "the best" fighter in the world, but damm what a beautiful piece ! 😍 Edit: Guys idc which is the best Fighter, my point was the Rafale is the prietiest (imho), with maybe the SU30 right behind =)
It is the only aircraft capable to defeat an F-22 Raptor. It does not have passive stealth features, but it's active stealth features are among the best, if not the absolute best
I subscribe . I like your video and our Rafale . I like US aircraft and the very powerful US navy . No comparison with our " little" navy but with a good technology . We are allies even if it is not perfect sometimes but who care ? Long live french american frienship .
The French are among America's oldest and most consistent friends. You gave us the Statue of Liberty as a gift. It's sad that people forget that. You folks are great.
@@PaulGuy Not only are French and Americans best friends, but we also collaborated to create the United States with Lafayette's fleet. Moreover there is a commemoration of the Battle of Chesapeake against the hereditary English enemy at this time with precisely the navy fleet and the French Rafale . But you helped us back a hundredfold in WW1 and WW2. So of course there were moments of estrangement and anger like in an old couple, but the France/US friendship has always returned because we are allies.
Le Rafale est l'accomplissement de savoir faire Français, avec un budget de 46 milliards d'euros. Imaginez si on donne le budget de conception du F-35 (2000 milliards) à Dassault...
Pour avoir été survolé par lui, je peux vous garantir que c'est un avion impressionnant.je me suis aperçu de sa présence qu'une fois qu'il était passé au dessus de ma tête sans que je l'entende. Connaissant aussi son armement et sa batterie de défense électronique de pointe, même si ce n'est pas le meilleur des avions, je n'aimerais pas me trouver en face de lui !
so, what happened was, the aircraft looked like it was taking off from Cat 3 or 4, in which, once launched off the deck would make an immediate left turn, which that entire maneuver is conveniently completely blocked by the bulk of the Rafale.
@@mtfgamma6257 Nah it's not taking off, it's coming in. Look again, you can see the wire behind it. But you're right if it was a takeoff, he would have turn left, but given how you can see the end of the deck in front of him, you'd still have seen it if it was what happended
@@JoJo-vm8vk no we had French sailors come to our ship and we sent a few of ours to their ship. My guys told me the relationship between officers and enlisted is way different and they all live in the same berthing sand eat together. Not the huge gap which the USN has between ranks.
Le rafale et le meilleur avoins de combats du monde !!! Victoire 6/5 contre le f22 raptor !!! Le 16/22/35 américain ne fait pas le poids contre le rafale !!!!
I am very glad that 12 of these machines were acquired by the Croatian Air Force. I think that anyone who is smart will never endanger the Croatian sky, land or sea again....
@@ianrichards909 considering it was the first plane ever created using computer modeling (with Dassault's CATIA software), that makes all US planes prehistoric in comparison, I guess.
@@StrikeFighterExperience .....Would he appreciate it if a foreigner came and stuck a sticker on an American military plane? I don't think so....don't do to others what you don't want others to do to you.
To this day all CV Group Wing Commanders use what is called a OIUJA board to track and park planes on their deck. A Manual positioning of game pieces. Like Chess but worse.
Dassault planes are so sexy. BTW, there's any source of how a super carrier operations works? Always curious about the roles of all the people on the flight deck.

The Rafale remains the only aircraft in the world to reach 11G positive! we are impatiently awaiting the future French aircraft carrier, the PA NG (Porte Avion Nouelle Génération) of 75,000 tonnes, 310 meters long and 80 meters wide, it will be able to take on board the Rafale M F4 and F5, as well as the SCAF (future 6th generation aircraft Franco German, and Spanish) cooperation to reduce the cost of development! but Dassault Aviation remains capable of building a plane alone! the Rafale still holds several records: I repeat what I wrote above, it remains the only aircraft to reach 11G positive! for a 10 ton class aircraft (Rafale C 9850 kg) it carries almost 100% of its empty weight in armament (9500 kg) it carries almost 150% in armament and fuel (14650 kg), it can make a slow passage at 80 knots, it can land on an aircraft carrier in smooth configuration at 100 knots, otherwise, it lands at 120 knots! is slower than an F/A18! (135 knots)
nobody who has a bit of military knowledge looks at Rafale as an inferior aircraft. It's one of the best of its generation.
"poor Eurofighter"?
Sorry dude your arrogance was unnecessary. Especially given the Typhoon has outsold the Rafale and without any Government 'support' (ie bribes).
And the 'SCAF'? 😏 It doesn't even exist in CGI let alone designed or metal cut because as always France is arguing with its 'partners'. Good luck beating the Germans at that. It will never be built.
And then you mention the PANG. Well well well. What happened with the last one to be built alongside the two British carriers reducing unit costs? Oh that's right France ran out of money and left the consortium like it always does. It will do the same with SCAF.
The Rafale is an excellent aircraft but its not as good as you suggest and when you slag off others to make it look better it proves the point.
@@gregft1979 and yet, there are many people who still think that the Rafale is inferior to many aircraft, such as the Eurofighter or the F22!!
The Eurofighter thyphoon is better than the Rafale you are a clown only a indian nationalist would speak like these, you never heard about bribery and politics
@@gregft1979 It depends of what you call "its generation", because the gen are something invented by the US ...
The rafale is a "4.5" by US standards but I can tell you the only competitors of this jet are the F22 and F35 and it's not even the case now with the F4 Version of the Rafale since he has many features in commun with the F35 (Data sharing, data fusion, habitlity to detect and track any stealth fighter jets by using different types of radar and computing the datas automatically for the pilot)
My favorite modern European fighter. And it’s not just good looking it is truly a beast.
Still like the mirage f1 more but that’s nostalgia
carrier deck is really hell on earth... Or paradise overs seas...
I am French and Russian and I love the Rafale but don't know if i should support the Americans or not 😂. In all seriousness though, this is a cool collaboration Rafale looks so slick.
Well sir France and the US are major allies that are both against Russia so you have your hands full.
@@USAFDeathFromAbove the fact we are currently on opposite sides doesn’t mean that Russia will always be a foe.
@@USAFDeathFromAboveMost French do not agree
so you are half orc..

Faut reconnaître que les portes avions Americain sont les roi des mers, qu'elle puissance qu'ils dégagent !!!
Dommage que les Anglais n'est pas franchi le pas pour leur porte aéronefs en les dotants depuis le début de catapulte et de brins d'arrêt.
La polyvalence entre nos trois marine en aurait été bien décupler 😢
Vive l'Amérique et vive la France !!!
Quelle belle collaboration français américain allié pour toujours 🇫🇷/🇺🇸
Des alliés qui détruisent les joyaux technologiques français pour leur profit en utilisant des méthodes très très discutables.
Des alliés qui oublient souvent que nous étions à leur côté pour virer les anglais et ne se souviennent que de WW2 et notre refus de les suivre en Irak.
Des alliés qui font de très bons ennemis par moment. De Gaulle les avaient bien cernés. Ils sont hégémoniques avant toutes choses.
Quand vous êtes en merde vous appellez les américains, réaction typique des français 😂😂
Je me demande bien qui a commencé: « Bataille de la baie de Chesapeake »
@@ypsilon3005 The French gave America its freedom. So there's that.
Les portes avions américains sont vraiment gigantesques
oui vraiment, le Harry S truman est pas petit
Magnifique vidéo ❤
It is a funny and friendly tradition in OTAN air forces. 😀 Kind regards to our American friends.
02:36 😉👍bien joué
Time to smuggle a croissant inside an F22 seat as a revenge 🥐💺
Cool vid.. ❤ (the Rafale is the best 4+ gen fighter-bomber)
I like to france technology ❤
Those Rafale might or not be "the best" fighter in the world, but damm what a beautiful piece ! 😍
Edit: Guys idc which is the best Fighter, my point was the Rafale is the prietiest (imho), with maybe the SU30 right behind =)
It is the only aircraft capable to defeat an F-22 Raptor. It does not have passive stealth features, but it's active stealth features are among the best, if not the absolute best
Not the top 1 in the world but in the top 3.
@@quentin6893 Do you have the standings ?
The Rafale is way above your F18,16,15...
Thanks for sharing this experience. What does the guys on deck think about the plane ?
Remember seeing this on cruise on the Truman back in 07-08. Man I miss being on the flight deck!
I subscribe . I like your video and our Rafale . I like US aircraft and the very powerful US navy . No comparison with our " little" navy but with a good technology . We are allies even if it is not perfect sometimes but who care ? Long live french american frienship .
The French are among America's oldest and most consistent friends. You gave us the Statue of Liberty as a gift. It's sad that people forget that. You folks are great.
@@PaulGuy
Not only are French and Americans best friends, but we also collaborated to create the United States with Lafayette's fleet.
Moreover there is a commemoration of the Battle of Chesapeake against the hereditary English enemy at this time with precisely the navy fleet and the French Rafale .
But you helped us back a hundredfold in WW1 and WW2.
So of course there were moments of estrangement and anger like in an old couple, but the France/US friendship has always returned because we are allies.
nice cooperation!
The french beauty guy!!🤣🤣.....you can't compet.....
This aircraft is a killer
Le Rafale est l'accomplissement de savoir faire Français, avec un budget de 46 milliards d'euros. Imaginez si on donne le budget de conception du F-35 (2000 milliards) à Dassault...
Great video! Amazing content... LUCKY!
Pour avoir été survolé par lui, je peux vous garantir que c'est un avion impressionnant.je me suis aperçu de sa présence qu'une fois qu'il était passé au dessus de ma tête sans que je l'entende.
Connaissant aussi son armement et sa batterie de défense électronique de pointe, même si ce n'est pas le meilleur des avions, je n'aimerais pas me trouver en face de lui !
No subtitles ? What are you asking to the guy ?
GG France!
What carrier was it? Nimitz I suppose? judging from the steam coming out of the launch pad, I don't think it's the Gerald Ford
Truman
Je suis français mais je suis nul en aéronautique 😂 Sinon belle collaboration et belle vidéo. 👍
egypt first country buy rafale
True. But not the Rafale M version. India did.
We call it "Zapping" in the RAF
so, the take off of the Rafale is awesome, but did anyone else see the jet disappear at 0:32? if not, I need help
You need help indeed
so, what happened was, the aircraft looked like it was taking off from Cat 3 or 4, in which, once launched off the deck would make an immediate left turn, which that entire maneuver is conveniently completely blocked by the bulk of the Rafale.
@@mtfgamma6257 Nah it's not taking off, it's coming in. Look again, you can see the wire behind it. But you're right if it was a takeoff, he would have turn left, but given how you can see the end of the deck in front of him, you'd still have seen it if it was what happended
@@BV14_04 ah, my bad then
So many people on deck, its crazy
No final checkers for that french jet.
They don’t have final checkers for their jets apparently. That’s what my guys told me when they went to their ship.
What do you call "final checker" please ?
@@JoJo-vm8vk final checker is the last person to observe and look at the jet before giving the thumbs up. It’s a qualification in USN aviation
@@StrikeFighterExperience Thanks 👍🏻
I bet it's just a cross deck flight so no French crew aboard the US aircraft carrier ?
@@JoJo-vm8vk no we had French sailors come to our ship and we sent a few of ours to their ship. My guys told me the relationship between officers and enlisted is way different and they all live in the same berthing sand eat together. Not the huge gap which the USN has between ranks.
AHAH good one, so what do you think about the Rafale ?
Awesome jet but I love my super hornets 🐝
man, this airport is so crowded. There are so many people on the runway, it's crazy.
You can smell the kerosene just by watching that video!!!
Le rafale et le meilleur avoins de combats du monde !!! Victoire 6/5 contre le f22 raptor !!! Le 16/22/35 américain ne fait pas le poids contre le rafale !!!!
😍 🇨🇵🇺🇸 tôt ou tard ça va péter on sera ensemble !
Il domine les avions américains ❤
MAGNIFIQUE
2:26 the TAG
that s my boys..... we have made the choice to have an omnirole fighter
An F-35c has landed on the De Gaulle aircraft carrier.
Love this amazing video
I have a question does the us let French planes refill on the aircraft carriers
Non ils les jettent dans l eau une fois qu ils ont atterri 😂😂😂😂
The video had 69 likes, so I was struggling if I should change that, but I did.
It's loose tradition in the US Navy to tag a plane that lands on the "wrong" carrier. He's just honoring it.
The Super Hornet is quite agressive.
Your aircraft carriers looks like a floating airport !
There are so many people outside... What are they all waiting for ??? ^^
il a de la guel le rafale
I want to be a Pilot.....since i was 10.... ❤
Whole decks like a moth to a light lol, id be too matter of fact
I am very glad that 12 of these machines were acquired by the Croatian Air Force. I think that anyone who is smart will never endanger the Croatian sky, land or sea again....
bro where on ur cranial do u hide ur camera?
I had a chest mount that peaked outa my float coat but I saw others with helmet cams. This was towards the middle/end of deployment though
French Rafale looks like far superior technology 😂😅! Like ufo’s coming on U.S navy
one day i'll be a pilot
Very decent Rafael
l amerique est une grande nation voir nos avions sur votre porte avions c est de participer avec de grand honneur a vos cotes
On a peut etre pas le meilleur mais on a le plus beau
il est certainement supérieur a un f18

@@ianrichards909 en faite c'est ton seul argument tu deteste la france mais tu ne connais rien à l'aéronautique :p
@@ianrichards909 😂
@@ianrichards909 considering it was the first plane ever created using computer modeling (with Dassault's CATIA software), that makes all US planes prehistoric in comparison, I guess.
How many Air Craft Carriers do the French Navy have in active service? How many Silent Submarines?

Is this carrier the CVN-71 Theodore Roosevelt?
Truman
What does he do at 2:22 ??
but what is this guy doing going to stick a sticker on a French Rafale? Who does he think he is?
Keeping up with foreign relations
@@StrikeFighterExperience .....Would he appreciate it if a foreigner came and stuck a sticker on an American military plane? I don't think so....don't do to others what you don't want others to do to you.
they did do that…. It’s called zapping. That rafale was covered in stickers when it went back. Our F18s had French stickers on them also (:
@@StrikeFighterExperience ....ok I didn't know it was some kind of tradition
@@gandigooglegandigoogle7202that’s ok!

Carrier kepemimpinan aircraft ndan hahahaha...air=udara dan udara=air hahahaha...
To this day all CV Group Wing Commanders use what is called a OIUJA board to track and park planes on their deck. A Manual positioning of game pieces. Like Chess but worse.
6:13 what kind of patch is that
DD214 Patch. Not sure where he got it though
0:07 I thought it was a buggy NPC
Dassault planes are so sexy. BTW, there's any source of how a super carrier operations works? Always curious about the roles of all the people on the flight deck.
