Mitsubishi F-15J

Oh wow about time, nice

“New Cockpit”

Shouldn’t the F15J MSIP have a digital SMS?

Hmm… It’s surprising that even with the cockpit added, there seems to be no apparent changes to the MAWS functionality or the specifications of the AAM-4. Instead, unnecessary elements have been added. What is this bump on the nose?

Probable answer to your question

Considering that the cockpit of the F-1 was a complete copy-and-paste from the T-2, I don’t think there will be any further modifications.
Where have the HUD and RWR of the F-1 disappeared to…?

Thank you.
Was there some issue with the initial model implemented on the Dev server? It’s strange that it was replaced.

I was mistaken. It seems it was included from the initial model. My apologies.

Now F-15J is only 300kg lighter than F-15C

Well I just made a bug report so can’t hurt to make an attempt.

I think the images in this article will be very helpful.

the new 220E engines took around 34 seconds to mach 1
normal F-15J took around 32 seconds to mach 1

So yeah they even reduced the power for some reason and it’s not only visual like a typo in the stats,
and by my understanding, they should be literally identical to the one on the F-16AM for example.
The 220E stands for an upgrade from a previous version while 220 means brand new from factory.

I wonder why it is so hard to get it correct

Maybe different intakes.

that to have caused reduced performance by 1000kgf? nah no way
it’s slower than the early F-15 like how can you even defend that

I am not defending anything, i am asking questions too.

That may not be very promising. This is because that IRST fuel tank pod was apparently made for a prototype IRST device under development, and was not intended for actual combat use. Interesting piece of equipment, though…

so we lose 100kgf of thrust and AAM-4s barely get past the range of the AIM 7Es still. and why exactly is that a thing?

So we can only hope that a model with an IRST in the nose section will be implemented…

both engines should be equal to each other.
This source is of the normal 220 https://www.nationalmuseum.af.mil/Visit/Museum-Exhibits/Fact-Sheets/Display/Article/196437/pratt-whitney-f100-pw-220/
This source is of the 220e with permission from prat and whitney Pratt & Whitney Engines - Level 3 (F100-PW-220/F100-PW-220E)
Both sources list the same afterburning thrust, which converts to 10778.4 kgf, although I assume the in game value incorporates the losses.

I don’t think that there’s such a thing as “different intakes” since among the modifications for the F-15J, intakes arent one of the devices omitted or replaced.

F-16 and F-15 has different intakes.

ah, I didn’t notice that the comparison was with a f16, is there a screenshot of the American f15c engine then?
