The International Rafale forum

Hi I am Taranis Attack

Due to popular demand I present to you an introduction/about me! I am from southern England, I cannot speak/write/read French, though conveniently this is mostly an English forum. Some of you may know me from other forums, and I have noticed a few names that I recognise (TMOR, Wingman, Roland, Kovy, and I'm presuming Tabigay is around here somewhere too). My purpose here is really to give the voice of opposition, though I am aware that expressing a view other than the sheer awesomeness of the Rafale is likely to be very unpopular and be met with mass insults, anger and ultimately denial. I am not however ignorant of the Rafale, I recognise its capabilities, where it is superior to Typhoon and will give credit to it provided the hate coming my way isn't excessive. I'm not "anti-French" or "anti-D'Assault", I think the Neuron will be a fine UCAV technology just like the UK's UCAV technology demonstrator BAE Taranis. My main interests are UAVs and UCAVs, though I have been on military forums since I was perhaps 16 or so and have had an interest in defence since I was a kid, so I have quite a broad range of knowledge of defence including naval and air systems as well as some knowledge of munitions and ground systems. I am studying Electrical Engineering at university and I am making a UAV demonstrator as part of my final year project, its a big job but I really enjoy doing it. I also have a good understanding of computer science and have also studied IT though I don't particularly like IT.

Welcome to the forum.

You can express any view you like about the Rafale as long as it is substantiated.

Hi Taranis, welcome !



That's quite interesting. I created this forum so as to inform about the Rafale... I really hope it will never look like the fanboys' nest. However, if you think it's already this nest, then some opposition is welcome !


Ultimate denial ? Maybe.

But moderators and I will do our best to prevent anybody from insulting.

Also, if there are any other questions, post them here

Hi TaranisAttack,

Are you really "PPP", the guy who wrote this on the WAFF ?

Are you really the one who call French "surrenders monkeys" ?

Don't bother to explain why if it's too difficult, just say "yes", or "no".

I suspect you are referring to a post where I stated that if anyone wants a source from him they should send a letter to Sampaix Road (a.k.a surrender monkey street), Paris. In which case I was referring to the member "Sampaix" a.k.a "Wingman", I made no reference to the French.

I hope so... But still, i'm not sure Sampaix would have been among the coward at the time... I suspect he would have on the Clostermann's side.
