F-22 will be the last competitive American plane. F-35 is just going to get stomped down to 14.0 by everything and everyone, so they have to make the F-22 good.
I hear that F-35A should be a pretty solid multirole with okay close-in A2A performance. F-35B and C are probably going to be bullied hard though. Obviously not quite as strong as F-22 or Su-57 but that’s not their job to do.
At least for F-35A it should have superior TWR compared to F/A-18C and vastly improved nose pointing performance compared to F-16C. Depending on fuel and weapon load, the TWR on F-35A can also be better than F-16C. In most cases I’d expect the F-35A to be at minimum capable of defeating F-16 and F/A-18 with a decent pilot at the controls.

The F-35 will be underrated for dogfighting. From what I’ve seen it easily has the performance close to an F-16C within the rate fight, while also having superior nose authority to the Hornets. That paired with full 360 degree Aim-9X will make it a powerhouse. However, I have a feeling it also struggles with speed retention like the Hornet, and struggles with tight turning like the Viper.
I guess we will have to see, but a definitely agree with should be able to beat the Hornet and Viper if flown well.
Any cool F-22 Raptor Decals or Emblems out there to stick everywhere?
I’ve tried so hard to find any, I don’t know the reason but I have only ever seen images of the f22 with the tail code and the US air force roundel even when seeing them once in Brisbane live It didn’t have anything else added either.
I assumed at first that it affected their stealth capability, but then their probably wouldn’t be tail codes or at least ant roundels. Also if that was the case f35 wouldn’t have so many designs like this one
I have a hunch FBW plays into that as not all FBWs are made the same

more stability than FBW
aerodynamically unstable aircraft are inherently more maneuverable
These G-suits have been in development for over 10 years, and they still haven’t been deployed to the Russian Air Force. Like HMD, if you read the news, they’re still in development. They don’t have any ready-made solutions.
sure boy,… i get you “news and information” to oppose your “claims based on nothing we can see yet”,…
maybe one day i would let you have it,… but as of today,… i’m Saint Thomas - and every pieces of information i’m having are against your claims.
EDIT-post flag: no reason for flagging this,… i’m asking for proofs he never showed here,…
This post was flagged by the community and is temporarily hidden.
BRING PROOFS - until then you’re wrong!
I have provided you with all the proof. And I suggest we finish here, since we are discussing a different topic.
where?
there is no link,… no pictures, no videos that would be proving anything you claimed
get your hands onto some proofs and bring them back here - until then you have nothing.

Considering the Mig-25 is being added to the game, how F-22 performance would fair in really high altitudes or high speeds against it? Can the F-22 fly “easily” at altitudes above 20km? Can it easily go past mach 2?
I’m bringing the Mig-25 because the F-22 has stronger engines than Mig-31’s, which is a further development of Mig-25; but power isnt all what matters in an jet engine
not much has been released about these, but its likely it has good high altitude performance
yes, very much so
given that it can supercruise at or almost at mach 1.8 (iirc highest confirmed is 1.76 but some statements put it up closer to 1.8)

you can use any color you want besides red and I think there is a Bot that handles the color of text issue.
