ORIGINAL: Warhorse64 You are far from the first to complain about this problem. Basically, the problem is that the Rafale actually is semi stealthy, and if it is flying lower than your radars, has a decent chance of sneaking in to missile range without being detected, as long as it keeps its own radar off; look-down detection ranges are rather shorter than normal. The good news is, it works both ways, especially with long-range AAMs. Keep your shooters at Low with radar off, and you can run up a quite amazing score ... [:)] I put your thoughts into action... but I am still got sucker-punched. This time when the missiles were detected, the area was under the coverage of 2 Hummers at high altitude approximately 50nm apart, 4 Eagles at medium, 2 Hornets at low, 1 Tomcat running TARPS at low and the victims, 2 Hornets at low altitude. All a/c were radiating. Gentlemen... there is stealth... and then there is science fiction! Way too many electrons running around not to pick them up (all I saw were the missiles a few seconds before impact; a/c were never seen)!
