F-15 Eagle: History, Performance & Discussion

and it does so for the whole ebvelope
which is alot easier than permanently changing the altitude for the engine performance chart

I can’t hit 2.4 mach at 45 thousand feet, just tried it. flew for like 3 minutes straight.

(converted everything to metric)

oh, then it is definitely under preforming

because if I am reading it right you should still have almost 1 km/h per second CAS acceleration at that point after hitting 2.4 with a maximum of 2.42

statshark also has a graph for that

is it though? its the same br as the kfir c10

APG-65 better in-game as well.

I forgor

Are you sure? C.10 has a whole ASEA radar dude.

At 12.7

At 12.7 we have premium Swiss Hornet that actually has better radar.


It hits 2.4, just at the wrong alt

TECHNICALLY it’s missing 0.02 mach of top speed, and it also hits it at the wrong alt, but there is no point in bug reporting it, gaijin doesn’t care about performance this high up…

thats fair

what was more confusing to me was the VNE though

because why would it be different between F15C and E

and doesnt gaijin normally set VNE to higher than IRL, in which case even the F15E VNE would be too low

ah I see. I mean, it’s probably better for gameplay that it hits its top speed at a lower alt, I just find it weird.

Is F-15C MSIP 2 worth anything nowadays? Or should i just skip straight to Giggle?

Msip 2 is probsbly better st 13.7 than the golden eagle is at 14.3

well, i still have to buy it anyways, so might as well spade it along the way. F-15A is pretty fun to play (and laughably overpowered in downtiers) so i hope C won’t dissapoint either.

I used to think that way, but AESA changed my mind. Not allowing enemies getting close is the primary goal of an Eagle, and the 13.7 Eagle lacks the eyes to do that.

i did stupidest play imaginable and died to a Tomcat at the end. Could’ve been 7 kills and hard carry otherwise :(
