Why would the U.S., even with orange man, invade japan?
Only 45 countermeasures? Theoretically it can go up to 60 I suppose if both boxes were the same.
Can pick 2 box of 15 large countermeasures, or 2 box of 30 small countermeasures, or 1 of each for 45 countermeasures.
-Born of two worlds.
the Mitsubishi F-2 Viper Zero was manufactured by the Japanese company Mitsubishi Heavy Industries (MHI) and the American Lockheed Martin. (Lockheed Martin: WEST ) (Mitsubishi Heavy Industries: EAST)
-But at home in one. (the F-2 have just only one home: Japan)
its the Viper Zero i have no doubts.

That’s fair, it would be a tough fight.

They also say how a lot of information was missing from the video. And how their murder boards have Multiple F-22s.
Above the engine and to the side???
If they give the J-11B PL-8Bs it may be the perfect F-2 counter
Of course, but the claims from the US’ side has to be readily dismissed on anything they say regarding any of the exercises that occurred with the Rafale since they had already been proven to have lied.
They claimed the F-22 didn’t actually lose (Rafale video was then released)
They claimed the Rafale started on the F-22’s tail (it didn’t, started on its side)
They then claimed the F-22 had on fuel tanks (analysis of the video proved it wrong).
Even the two former US pilots in that video admitted that the US government had lied on this topic.

A very tough fight, but it’s possible. I feel like it won’t be even but the hornet has some weird tricks up its sleeves.
120 (all combined)

Of course, but if one side lied 3 times and the other side had their claims validated by video proof, then its best to take information from the side that had been telling the truth.

Yeah but still it was one fight. Also no wingman’s which a real fight would most likely have. Again this was a exercise and it means nothing in the heat of battle.
That would be if Gaijin gave it all small countermeasures right? 30 for each box, 2 boxes on each side. 60 on each side.
im not saying its invincble its very clear anyplane can loose media says its invincble the only time its immun is bvr with stealth for example F15 lost in mock dogfights to the f14 a heavirt and older fighter f16 also lost mock fights to the tomcat

The other sides claims were validated at the same time omiting details. End of the days we don’t know what went on. I distinctly remember at the end of the video the co troler say the rafael 1 and the F-22 like 3 or something.
Given they did that for the F-15Js and they use the same boxes, I wouldn’t see why not

Hooray! Although I don’t know about 120 in total, since on of the vertical stabilizer mounted dispensers is very visibly a dispenser of 15 and not 30, and depending on the lower tail mounted ones, it could be a total of 90. Either 30 large caliber and 60 small, or 90 small caliber and 15 large.
(Still those extra 2 dispensers on the vertical stabilizer are ugly with them being asymmetrical xD)
At least it’s a viable amount of CMs, to some extent.
Is that a growling sidewinder video?
