I propose to lower the combat rating for the F-15E in Ground realistic battles

350

Core difference though is that virtually all BOL carriers have 32-80 internal CMs with BOL ontop.

F-15 could have 240 internal + BOL, that is a lot of CMs and whilst yes, if they fixed BOL and limited the F15 to just 2x BOL. Something like the Gripen C would still have more CMs, but it does also have multiple notable weaknesses.

Honestly, I cant say either way whether or not the F-15s should get BOL or not. F-18C perhaps should get at least 2. But they are rather possesive about loadout options. Was a fight and a half to get BOL on the GR4

not, it should get all 4 just like hornet

and later strike/all advanced eagles have 360 internal, and with the US advanced eagles they should be able to carry BOL on the outer pylons for a total of 8 BOL

352

and…

This is probably why.

You want 1600 CMs on the F-15 that is already doing jsut fine with what it already has?

does tornado really need 1576 countermeasures (the vast majority of which are large caliber)

354
  1. Most of those are chaff-only not mixed
  2. Its a Tornado IDS, what is already considered a reasonably weak 11.3 aircraft. At 12.3. Its carried by its CM count, it has nearly nothing else going for it
  3. its a strike aircraft not a top tier fighter.

Last time I checked, the F-15E wasnt limited to 2x Aim-9Ms and spent most matches base bombing

357

They’re American players, they would base bomb

i mean even then the later F-15’s with these numbers of countermeasures (current ones can only do a measly 880 with BOL) are facing a whole different level of threat

You can flag this if you want but pls?

Wrong, all the 15C does is that pulls harder and rates better up until around 550 kph, after that it stays on the losing side.

Both actually

Both are boats, and the su33 is probably the 2nd worst flanker variant in terms of dogfight performance with the firsy being the su34.

Hmm, I do see a load of GBU39s in the sky. I wonder who is the perpetrator.
Whilst yes they don’t have to ‘bomb’ they still do. And yes I agree with u otherwise.

364

and i have shot down a F-18C with a I-15 in a 1v1 dogfight before, does that mean the I-15 is a better dogfighter than the F-18?

And they are threats BOL aren’t gonna help with. It’s ECM that should do the job in newer generation air combat.

366

Flares still work. And chaff maybe less effective but in combination with EW could work better

367

Wrong. Especially because taking the TGP immediatelyahistorically halves the CM load

You realise the mans talking about dogfighting and being hit by an R73.
Im not talking about iwth its ground loadout at this point.

However agai 60Cms is still sufficient , but barely.

Gotta ask, why tf does it half the CM load? im about half way down the TT for the F15E, had to start at 2.3 -.- is it even worth the bother the way folks here are going on about it?

it is
