I don’t consider 10% to be a major disadvantage
For Smin’s answer on why the F-15IA ^

I never said major disadvantage, I said its not minimal and quite obvious.
There is such a thing as a disadvantage that isn’t Major nor Minimal.
Yes, you’re right, I was already on autopilot. The thing is, I never denied there was a 10% difference. The point they’re making is that it sounds as if the F-16 Pobit has 50% more thrust.
This discussion stems from you calling it the Block 72 (which it technically doesn’t fit) and “the difference is minimal”, what someone else has said is irrelevant to me.
Under the name F-16C Block 70
-
Full avionics and sensor capability
-
New airframe
-
AIM-120C-8 AMRAAM
-
AIM-9X Block II Sidewinder
In fact, it is a Block 72, without the engine (whether due to a fault or simply not being implemented) and, once again, a 10% difference in engine power which becomes increasingly smaller at altitude, is a minimal difference when considering the aircraft’s entire kit.
The discussion started because someone wanted to compare an F-15IA with a Chinese F-16V. That in itself doesn’t even make sense. it’s yet another example of the irrationality of the people who use the forum to cry about things.
Considering also the fact that it all started because someone said that the Pobit is a Block 70
I like this approach; in fact, it would be amazing if Gaijin were more consistent in this regard.
You misinterpret things extremely badly.
No one said the Pobit is a Block 70; it was a comparison based on approximation, it’s the closest thing to a Block 70 (very close, in fact).
The comparison between the situation of the F-15IA and Taiwan’s F-16V Block 70 is a prime example of how Gaijin uses a double standard for similar situations.
Both are aircraft that have been ordered and paid for, but have not yet been delivered.
however, only one will be implemented in the game; for the other, they used the excuse that it’s “not yet in service.”
Honestly, I don’t know if you’re extremely limited or just intellectually dishonest.
Trust me
One has no connection to the other one is a factory-built aircraft that will always be as it is. the other was a complete upgrade of an existing aircraft to become an F-16V.
The standard continues to fall
It wasn’t just a modernization; Taiwan has upgraded its existing fleet to the V-standard (Block 72) and has also ordered new F-16 Block 70s (though their delivery is delayed).
So yes, there is a connection between the situation regarding the F-15IA and Taiwan’s F-16V Block 70; both are aircraft that have not yet been delivered.
“is like” = comparison by approximation
Jesus bro.
Instead of a CAPTCHA test, some forum users should have to take a MoCA test…
to The F-16 Pobit (Block 70) my goodness! You can’t even read
the other one is like the F-16CM Pobit (block 70) in my world is “o outro é semelhante ao F-16CM Pobit (bloco 70)”
So, do you understand now?
Vc tem probleminha ?
I don’t understand this language I just translated it to see if you’d understand
? Rafale f4 have been a thing since years, you may have misunderstood with people not happy that f3.r was pretty much an f4.1 because most of the stuff was tested on an f3.r.
France right now only has f4.1 and is modernizing them to f4.2, with some f4.3 already flying.

And you managed to misinterpret both —congrats.
It’s not a matter of misinterpretation it’s just that you can’t write properly and you want to teach someone else how to do it. Have you done your L today?
It’s been a while since I’ve followed news about the Rafale; thanks for the correction.
Perhaps the most appropriate translation for the term I have in mind would be “is kind of like.”
