Kings of Battle - Rumor Round-Up and Discussion (Part 1)

Go play DCS with your beloved Gripen

F-18 and F-16 are pretty comparable actually.

F16 is designed as a dogfighter and AMRAAM platform, with the 9G pulls, high speed, insane handling and weight.

F-18 is designed for carrier ops, so its heavier, designed as a standoff BVR machine, can hold its own in a dogfight, and has AIM 7s incase AMRAAMs arent added.

Both have:
CCIP/RP
Helmet sight systems
Digital FCS
Good radar
AIM-7 capability
Multirole for CAS too
AIM9 missiles
Onboard guns

They’re essentially the same, minus a few specialities.

Really? Please give me ONE example of Britain, my main nation, being in anyway “biased”? We have been systematically neglected and nerfed. Imagine if the best aircraft in your air TT was the Mig-23MLD and that was all you’d recieved in the past 2 years to fight the F-16C and Mig-29 and you might begin to imagine how selfish you sound right now

You are the disgrace here lol. All you want to do with people smarter than you is ban them. Too afraid that they will beat your limited point of view in an argument.

I think CF-18 is certainly more sensible than Gripen in UK
No big leaps in capability. Just something good
