Damn that’s a hot plane, I don’t think the term Omnirole was used by accident.



by chance does anyone know where this image came from? I’m looking for the key that goes with the numbers.

Nah Pakistan has been using "omnirole" instead of "multirole" for a while now. I first noticed it after they release that fan fair video after receiving the initial batch. I wonder if there's any difference between the two words.

British English and American English, I think. I noticed a lot uses of "Omni" in ex-British colonies like India, Pakistan, Singapore, Malaysia and Hong Kong, especially in the old times like in 1960s and 1970s.

They just using it to get back at India for using Rafale, basically saying "we have omnirole aircraft too"
The Rafale is referred to as an "omnirole" aircraft by Dassault.
