F-15E and F-15I should not be able to fight aircraft such as the 9.12 and 9.13 MiG-29s, or the F-16As. Heck, even against the aircraft at the same BR the F-15E/I flown by a pilot with a brain is near invulnerable once it gets up to speed and is at altitude, because it can literally sustain a mach 2+ 9G turn and barely lose any speed in the process, so good luck getting your Fox 3s to hit it unless you’re only like 10 kilometers away.
There needs to be way more BR decompression, and contemporaries need to be added for other nations as soon as possible.
Around 6:45 is a perfect illustration of why this plane is an issue, he can’t even be bothered to care about the missile. Sure it might not have hit any other jet in the first place but they would at least have to pay some basic attention to it, he can just glance at it and move on with his life.
But we can’t get Gripen’s FM, CMs, and ordnance fixed because it would be problematic.
Really at this point why even pretend the yanks don’t get handheld in air? Russians do not get such favourable treatment in air, and everyone else is pretty much treated on par with the Russians if not worse.
Ngl the American dominance at top tier air has gone on longer than I thought it would. I really thought the R-77’s supersonic drag would be fixed the day FOX 3s got added, and then Soviet FMs would be buffed like crazy.
I really doubt that’s what it takes to buff other nation’s stuff, seeing the non-2A7/T-90M tanks’ performance in GRB (or the non-Russian teams during the R-27ER age)
Same with GRB , both the F15E and the SU34 are NOT equal to the current 12.7’s in anyway, they should be 13.0 with how much of a gap their capabilities are with any plane.
God forbid anyone wants to enjoy top tier, get these planes as far away from 11.7 as possible.
The F15E and I can be 14.0 in air and they’d still the best
The top BR should’ve been 15.0 before AMRAAMs were added, yet it’s still 13.7.
All jet development from the 40s to the 2010s (ish) is all in a whopping 6.7 BRs. Me-262s fight sabres, upgraded sabres face F-104s/Mig-19s, which face all aspect 30g missiles, and it doesn’t get any better. Between 10.7 and 11.7 you go from a Mig-21MF with 4 R-60s to the MiG-21ML/A/D which has 4 R-60MKs and 2 R-24Rs.
I don’t know how the person who was in charge of the F-15E’s BR thought that 13.7 would be fine for it. The F-15C and its variants were already the most meta top tier planes, the E is an all-around improvement except for maneuverability, which isn’t even all that important because you can just avoid a dogfight by flying away and nothing can catch you.
Israeli F-15I still doesn’t have any form of fire and forget weapons unlike the US version. Israeli air additions have consistently been copy/paste US planes with either worse engines, worse radar, or worse air to ground armament, when this was one of the key aspects Israel developed. Gaijin this is not funny at all. Two years this has been happening.
The Israeli F-15I is technically better than the F-15E for air superiority due to it having more countermeasures, it lacking fire and forget ordinances doesn’t matter in Air RB.
Just keep spamming or bugging people in forums and you’ll probably eventually get your fire and forget stuff like the SPICE (just how like the American community coped enough until they got the 229 engines).
Thing is I never ran out of countermeasures anyway. I’d rather the F-15E in the Israeli tree rather than a gimped worse copy paste. If it got Python 4 I’d agree but rn it’s just much worse.
As should the F-15JM, F-15C MSIP II, and potentially Su-34.
F-15E’s airframe suffers from its too powerful engine and performs worse in rate compared to the F-15Cs.
The only thing F-15E can do better is high-alt BVR and escapes.
Hard no, there is such thing as too decompressed.
I calculated 14.0 in 2023. We’re at 14.7/15.0 effective today, and that’s dang near perfect decompression from 8.0 to present 13.0.
We might need 15.0 decompression after AMRAAM is added at least.
because We already have three terrible compressions in BR radius
7.0-8.7 Early jets with Subsonics which are drastically ruined by F-86 and MiGs
9.3-10.7 Early-Coldwar supersonics with some subsonic jets.
and 12.7-13.7 current top-rank bracket I guess.
F-86A-5 shouldn’t share the same BR with Meteor F.4 or Vampire FB.5 and punishing Me 262
T-2 shouldn’t have just one step higher BR than F-104A/C or F-100D
and F-15C/E/I shouldn’t have just one step higher BR than Tornado F.3 Late (Two steps seems fine for me) or facing F-14A Early.
We need more and more decompression.
IMO, F-16A or F-14A Early[12.7] which faces F-15E[13.7] barely have no chance against superior enemy
Just like old time when Hunter F.6[10.3] faced F-14A Early[11.3]
I mean, I’d rather be the F-100D in that situation than the other two.
Once the merge happens, T-2 loses to F-100, and F-104 loses to both.
T-2 really only has those AIM-9Js going for it now.
And before you say anything nasty, the reason why I have this perspective is F-100A: ~1.5 KMR, 3:1 KDR.
Defyn’s content, a 1v1 friend of mine, and the engine buffs to F-100 just made that thing soar.
T-2 lacks the rate and acceleration.
F-104 has the acceleration, but not the turning ability.
I get what you mean though, all should be brought up by at least 0.3, and be fine. Obviously with stuff above them going up as well.
