Without wanting to sound too serious, in what has become an increasingly comical thread....

In all my dealings with the Rafale and SEM drivers at Landivisiau I was very impressed indeed by their kit and professionalism. The same goes for the FAF drivers in their M2000 RDI, -5, N and D variants. Sadly never got a go against their F1 chaps.

All those boys and girls were absolutely first class and would give any NATO unit i've fought a run for their money. As an airframe Rafale is obviously pick of the bunch but the 2000 series performance is also staggering. And a lot of those chaps wear badges for ops done over the 'stan, and other places, that we give them very little credit for.

Anyway, back to some good old fashioned trans-channel frog/rosbif slagging...
