F-15 Eagle: History, Performance & Discussion

It wasn’t that dramatic, low speed, good hands, legs and ass, know how.

Yeah there is a video of a Gripen performing a cobra and it ended up crashing because of it can’t perform one without losing control since it wasn’t meant for that kind of performance but the Gripen E probably could but am not sure

I don’t think there’s any need for “Cobra”.

Isn’t the f15sa manual classified

it is.

You talking about the one from Russian TG leaks?

Does -5 CFT means fifth version of CFT or what?



-2
-3
-4
CFT


dash-2/3/4 CFT

So -5 CFT means Dash-5 CFT? Am I right?

I’m not particularly interested in CFTs, other than their effect on the flight envelope of the aircraft.
But there are more types of CFTs. I think the ones on the F-15C were more aerodynamic

I am trying to find information about CFT versions and smart weapons on outboard CFT stations. How many versions exist? How they differ? And etc.

Currently from Eagle talk i know about Dash 2 3 and 4.
Dash 2 and 3 is for 15C
Dash 4 is for 15E(from 80s).
But how many versions were made from 80s?
Does -5CFT in 93 flight manual means Dash-5 CFT?
What CFT versions add smart wiring on inboard row?
So many questions.

As one ppl said
“CFT-3 is a clean CFT like the ones the F-15C used in Alaska and Iceland, CFT-4 is the one with all of the A2G pylons and compatible with the F100-PW-220, CFT-5 is the one with all of the A2G pylons and compatible with the F100-PW-229”

Does another versions of CFT exist?

in a dogfight performing a cobra is basically giving yourself to your opponent because it only works in certain scenarios like forcing an overshoot but if you fail you ended up dumbing all you energy and you are now falling off the sky
cobra is mostly used in airshows or for landings (there is a video of a su 33 doing a cobra in order to slow to land on a aircraft carrier since the runways is very short )

Hello, sorry for writing off topic. Until this year and a half ago, I was blocked from chat for life for 1 report. I went to a Russian forum where they told me to write to the admin, I wrote to the admin and we agreed that if my behavior over the next year is good, then the chat will be unblocked for me. A year and a half has passed and I would like to know how I can write to the admin. (I’m writing through a translator since I don’t speak English, I apologize for the mistakes)

use https://forum-ru.warthunder.com/ to communicate on russian forum, Gaijin account

thanks

From Eagle talks.
All F-15Cs have CFT equipment from very beginning. Why does devs say that F-15C should be heavier than usual F-15C because of CFt equipment?
