What a great looking aircraft. Thank you for all of the hard work that went into creating it. I look forward downloading and flying it in the near future.

A new entry has been added to Add-Ons Library, category FS 2004 Military - Jets
Description: Rafale M for Flight Simulator 2004 approved by Dassault Aviation. Developed by VPA -- Vincent Hellegouarch (3D Modeler), Philippe Devallez (Panel Designer), and Alexander Baffert (Flight Envelope).
The aircraft has been reproduced in 16 different configurations. Each version, as with the Rafale C and B, are configurations that can be implemented in time of war. All include animated launch bar. Two configurations in the tanker role include extending/retracting refueling drogue (basket).
There are strict limitations to distribution, modifications, and component usage that will be enforced by the VPA members and Dassault Aviation so you are advised to read the documentation carefully.

Many thanks to all involved Frank, this is so appreciated.

Still and always impressed by all new addons for FS2004, which is almost 20 years old. What a beauty! Congrats to that release
Best regards, Manfred.
Wow, thank you for uploading the M version! Never had this one before. Thank you

Vincent Hellegouarch, Philippe Devallez, Alexander Baffert and of course our own Frank, Thank you for making these models available. When I look at relative large the number of downloads the response here is a bit disappointing in my opinion. (At this moment 79 downloads, but only 2 "thank you-s"...)
But I can assure you that your efforts are highly appreciated!
Cheers,
Huub
What Huub said - +1 !
Bravo Tango! Thank you for these excellent models. Long live fs2004.

I downloaded the M version yesterday since it was right here at SOH, haven't tried it out yet. Thanks a bunch to the VPA guys and Frank Safranek for making the Rafales available again. Sometimes we're quick to download planes to fly but slow to say thank you to the creators, and the websites that host their stuff.
The repaint packs available from Franks Mirage4FS site entail alternative model files for the Rafale C.
Are these updates or should the original files kept?
There are sound files in the sound directory of the M version, but the sound.cfg points as alias to the common directory Rafale B_C_M_sound.
Are the all necessary/essential?
Working away again; haven't had a chance to unzip yet

Another great series of models to make the Rafale family complete! However I have some issues with the pop-up screens and gauges with this version. I have to have a better look to see where it goes wrong. ( I think the panel config file must point to some wrong locations....)

Hahaha, I know the feeling . I have written messages this week, I had to read twice before I even understood what I had been trying to say. It must be the sudden hot weather.
I have found what the problem is! The panel configuration file point to a .cab file named RafaleW14.CAB. However the included .cab file is named RafaleW14B.CAB , like for all other Rafale versions. As disk space is not a real problem for me I copied the RafaleW14B.CAB file and renamed it RafaleW14.CAB. I thought it was much easier than replacing all the entries in the different panel.cfg files of 16 different models.
Cheers,
Huub
A big thank you to:
Vincent Hellegouarch, Philippe Devallez, Alexander Baffert .... and Frank Safranek. Your time and efforts are massively appreciated 😊
