At high speed you can still pull 12-13G’s now. It’s a good aircraft, on par with the MiG-29.
It just isn’t going to be touching the performance of the Mirage 4000, Gripen, or Su-27 any time soon.
That, and the Su-27 is miles ahead of all these other aircraft for the meta with 10 missiles (6 of which can be R-73s) and the remainder R-27ER…
retains energy at high speed pretty well, and at top tier that makes a pretty big difference. frankly i think 120s and 77s would help the balance a lot at top tier
when we get amraams for the eagle i hope we get bs considering as were barely used irl and kinda sucked guidence wise
AIM-120A/B are the same missile but one has reprogrammable memory.
Maybe try testing the stall speed as a proxy for ITR? Might be easier to hold constant altitude and let speed drop until aircraft stalls.
ive read somewhere that bs had guidence firmware updates, but id have to find where. guess wt couldnt really model any changes anyway
wonder how theyll balance loadouts for amraams. would they let the eagle can carry 8?
hmmm might be worth a shot the problem would be holding altitude though
Should just be 4 under the fuselage and two on the wings at most for early F-15’s iirc.
early 15s couldnt mount them on the sidewinder rails?
I don’t know off the top of my head, I presume they could but unsure if it was considered.
the c definitely can mount sidewinder rail amraams idk about a varients though
8 amraams is a lot of amraams
BOL rails and HMD should be added.
Thats an F-15E btw
Yes aim-120s on rails for an extra 4 but require LAU-128 pylon
Thats an F-15C, the one you posted had conformal fuel tanks. Making it an E in all likelihood.
yeah i realized, also darker color scheme
