Hello,
I think a lot of you already know that most of modern planes (civilian and military) have been designed using CATIA, CAD software developed by Dassault Systemes.
I am looking for pictures or videos showing real CATIA data of existing (or not built) planes. And more especially fighters.
From CATIA V1 to nowadays
Can you please help me ?
Thanks a lot in advance
 
check grabcad for single aircraft models made by private individuals. there are no complete DMUs of whole planes online, since those represent company confidential data. those above are screenshots of DMUs but not the actual 3D data.
 
I know grabcad, but I am looking for real public pictures or videos of airplane in CATIA.

You have to distinguish what you are using the CAD model for. So in J-10/F-2 videos you see models of the outer moldline only for CFD simulations to simulate aerodynamic performance. In the Rafale model you actually see the whole construction / internal model too. Basically showing engine, tubes, structure... Another thing to to keep in mind is progress of the whole project. At the beginning you start with outer models and defining more and more the inner structure.

Yes I know this, all those projects are going through 3 main development steps: concept study, preliminary design and detailed design
