All MRCA contenders had to undergo trials from Leh airfield (10,682 ft asl) in high temp conditions. The results weren't released, but media leaks suggested the F-18's performance in those conditions was outside acceptable parameters specified in the requirements. This is little more than hearsay though, so take it with a pinch of salt. No idea on how the Rafale fared.
