Yes, It's coming up slowly. Francis and Stéphane did an amazing detailing job as usual.
Will be working on the moulds probably in November.
First demonstration expected for the Al Ain air show in January ( fingers crossed ).

The plane has been designed to be powered by a single BF-300.
Twin version also available.

The landing gear is an absolute piece of art.

Very nice!
It must be one of the very first Rafale kits with the Marine gear flying in the world...
For info the Marine gear is significantly bigger and has this catapult probe. Also the nose section is specific of this version and gear doors are different:

I thought the front gear on a Raf retracts forward! Nick as you have developed it it would retract back !

This is just an old rendering picture. Look at the video. It retracts forward.

I agree with you Carlos. The Marine gear is massive and looks really good on the Rafale...
