This is 100% correct. F-16I is supposed to have higher thrust than F-15I.
F-15I’s intake ducting is designed to move air from up to mach 2.8 down to <1.
F-16’s intake ducting is designed to move air from up to mach 2.2 down to <1, thus it is shorter and has less channel loss.
F-15s should always have lower thrust than F-16s when using the same engine.
unless u have juicy documents, they will consider at best to fixing / “correcting”… only if its benefits them.
but hey french tech tree is doing excellent atm with the “Secondary” locked from sight Sources they getting lately.
Correct me if im wrong but doesnt the f16i should have stronger engine then the f16c?
it does no?
It already has more thrust than the F-15I despide having the same engine as it
which is a stronger engine than the F-16C has
F-16I:
F-15I:
F-16C has the F110-GE-129 and the F-16I has the F100-PW229
so yes it has
No it has less by around 500 kgf
So the f15 engines are underperforming too cuz the f16c has more
idk
as it stands the F-16C has way less dry thrust and way higher fuel burn on full afterburner
get sources before you make some random assumptions
I mean
hes kinda right
f15c and e/i are missing a bunch of low speed thrust
like i said idk
but instead of coming to random conclusions you should some research first
I said “correct me if im wrong” chill
And u said that it f16i have stronger engine too
.
But it seems like it isnt the case
sir this is the WT forum
someone is gonna see that as a challenge to post the 1000 page NATOPS manual
check pms
also that source is useless because the F-14D is neither the F-15 nor F-16 so it cant be used
besides it being restricted
nah that was for one of the engines. i just send the ones for f-16s in dms to him
it is useless bc it talks about hte F110-GE-400 and not about the F110-GE-129
besides the fact that it is talking about thrust mounted in an F-14
ya true. thats why in dms i actually just sent him the ones for the f16
