F-15EX Dev Discussion Thread

Because thrust its a dynamic thing.

the MRMLs bug report is marked as fixed but EX still only got 12 AMRAAMs?

because the dev server didnt update yet

it will update tomorrow on monday

dev server is still on version 2.60.0.21

Because it isn’t getting >12 AMRAAM.

and ? , will be 16 , 4 aim-9 and 12 aim-120

Yes,

apparently

Wrong. 9G, and FBW will allow up to 12G.

12g considered within safe limit?

3G increase over the F-15E would certainly be interesting…

with WT 1.5x multiplier we get 18G F-15

and your source is?

22.5G F-15EX just a week away 😊
/s

There is definitely no leaked secret manual which says 9G normally and 12G override button pressed. No such manual ever leaked

Isn’t it the case that irl the F-15s before FBW was able to pull 15Gs and now with the FBW, it is limited to 12G? Doesn’t this mean the FBW F-15EX is LESS maneuverable due to FBW putting limitations on it?

How would a IRL F-15EX pull more than previous F-15s when the fly-by wire puts limitations where there previously wasn’t limitations?

It’s possible that the F-15EX with the FBW had reduced stall limits and made it much easier to control in the stall, but that still requires actual numbers to prove how it should behave in the stall, without those specific numbers it’s not something Gaijin can do anything about.

well and the FBW wont change the fundamental aerodynamic issues that the F-15 airframe has

Correct me if I’m wrong but these “uncommanded yawing and rolling tendencies” can be counteracted at high AoAs by FBW, but it still requires numbers at where the new limitations are.

FBW on the F-15 is what made it safe to pull very high AoA at airshows lol, you couldve picked something else but chose something that FBW does actually help with

sure the FBW would be able to counteract those
but you will just have more and more aerodynamic issues the further you push past 30° AoA
