Pilots in War Thunder can sustain abnormal G pulls. All planes.
Only some planes are modeled to rip wings from Wing Overload Crash.
Why is one modeled but the other isn’t?

They are all modeled to rip but i had to guess why the M4K has a lower rip load than the others is (and this is just a guess) of the bigger wings. it has the biggest wing area of all top tier jets. At high AoA it has the biggest load of air pushing against the wings which reduces the possible G-load at higher speeds. This is public information about the wing area:
Mirage 4000: 73 m²
F-15: 56,48 m²
Su-27: 62,04 m²
JAS-39A/C: 25,54 m²
The AIM-7M should be far better than it is too, because its a cumulative upgrade of the Skyflash onto the AIM-7
But in game its just an AIM-7F
no
they are, the just cant reach that limit since its set pretty high
no
okay then, how about you show some examples then? You just generalize everything without any good explanation, while i try to properly explain things to show why things might be this way or that way and what makes everything different and whatnot. I ask you to have a proper conversation with me and not just deny everything i say without any explanation.
Wing overload is modeled yes. Why is it modeled when G force on pilot isn’t modeled realistically?
Okay so can someone tell me why at random speeds simply rolling while straight or leveling your roll while flying straight will snap either one or both of the wings off on the F-15A?
Even trying to flop about like how you can snap roll in the F-4 won’t do it
But simply rolling or leveling out your wings will rip them off
What is the purpose of this
Why even include something so arbitrary in the FM
Just ripped again at 7-800 kmh gently pulling up
Hmm
Su27 does the same thing btw.
I just had my first wing rip at below mach trying to shoot a phantom down with my guns, really surprised me

When it just came out of F16A, it was also very easy to break its wings, and now there is no such situation, you have to quarrel with them, there is no way, they deliberately disgusting people too much.
it’s comical how you can pull 13g’s on maximum load and nothing, but then pulling a little away to dodge a sparrow you just notched makes your wingtip fall off. The F-15 is extremely poorly modeled yet; in fact the gun being so far away from the center of the plane makes dogfights with gun an impossible thing; the gun will recoil so much that you will not just miss your shot but also lose the trajectory completely and be unable to pitch anywhere.

Yea, i stopped playing that F-15 due to how easily the wings break for some time now. Really sucks when trying to dodge missiles.

today i picked up the f-15 and try to spade it once more, after the daily reward gave me 150x rp booster. Guess what? I was flying at 900kmh at sea level when the right wingtip snapped A SECOND after I rolled and didn’t even let me control the aircraft as I spun to the ground. Real life reports F-15s and Su-27s as well as other twin boom aircraft flying without an entire wing properly enough to return and land. It’s the fact the wing randomly blows apart out of thin air what makes me think: So you can pull 13G snaprolls on maximum load without any issue but the wing falls off when barely making any input even below mach? That gotta be intentional.

accounting that usa has like 20 percent winrate it’s not worth playing at all. When they fix it and give it it’s due armament optionss and vulcan belts they can move it to 13.7 if they dare. Meanwhile it should stay where it is. And it’s not even because the plane sucks, per say the f-15 is a bad boy but it’s armament can’t really kill the enemy as efficiently as you know, soviet weapons?

I find it funny that once you debunked Alvis argumentative hull and thus forced him to explain his particular bias, he just snapped his fingers and dissapeared from the discussion to never be seen again.
After enough months already, and even two BR changes, im starting to believe that this particular fetish on glorifying the F-15 and looking out to be moved to 12.7 is just a community whim that has no special depth rather than ‘it has 9Ms’ and ‘it has a great FM’, both arguably poor reasonings as even the post we’re commenting in is evidence on how broken the plane still is.
@Pyro_Addict
You seem to be upset that I’m a NATO fan.
Sorry, but no one debunked me nor other NATO fans.
No @AlvisWisla, im not that devoted to the game’s forum to false flag you, but i do know your current reputation as a troll, hence why i don’t even care on replying personally to your nonsense all around.
