900 votes is still an impressive feat, and barely behind the rework suggestion. That’s a lot of people wanting to change the order of their nations. Keep in mind this is also a far less popular suggestion category than the vehicle suggestions.
Plus I still have something planned for 1000 votes, so I’ll happily wait out the remaining 70. It’ll be worth it I think.
Russia doesn’t have a true next gen IR missile, so not sure why a Russian plane would be the feature of that
hey, I’m more hyped about the acceleration cause that part is the main benefit getting up to speed and being able to keep/regain it when defending and attacking is the key thing for its performance in game and how Meta it will be.
However as they don’t seem to model like heat limits i.e. the mig25 in game I suspect even a FM nerf will only lower it at the lower alts. Which isn’t a bad thing for players who aren’t multipathing or playing low, which to be fair why would you play like that with an EX.
plus if the tradeoff of it getting its better WVR FM in exchange for its insane top speed at lower alts ill take it cause the thing loses to the C in maneuverability right now which is pretty funny when they 1v1.
its not no f15 its the f15ex with 18630kgf each engine btw so yeah more than any jet in game idk if the flight model should get bit tweaked but at this state f15ex is really i mean insanely fast but i think it has more drag then both f15e/c as in turns i feel like it loses more speed so yeh
btw i read that f15ex limit is 2.9 Mach but in game it cant get over 2.41 at 11km
ok be fair the said limit of 2.9 by that Boeing person was theoretical assumption by the guy and was excluding things like pylons, and drag parts, other key aspects that stop a jet from reaching that speed I.e fuel and Heat, its why the Ex going Mach 1.5 at 9000ft is unrealistic not because its not capable for the thrust and weight but instead the forces put onto the airframe.
so while that one engineer said theoretically possible its not realistic hence why Boeing themself give a top speed of Mach 2.5 which is quite close to the top speed stat in game when clean, however its lower altitude performance is definitely overperforming
Meanwhile the actual limit being Mach 2.5 assumed to be clean, but with an air to air load could be Mach 2.3 is reasonable and I don’t think anyone would complain about that too much, considering at 10 000 meters and up you’ll get there in no time at all given the engines and lower drag up there
yeah fully agree you can climb and get to mach 1.9-2 at 9-11km alt consistently in under a few minutes, its insane.
Like to a point i couldn’t care less if they limited sub 9km alt top speed to Mach 1.2 as long as i can climb as well as it can right now you should never be under that alt.
With how popular it sells it will, same as how f-16 continues to be modernized, even if France does not wants, others will.
from what i understand the f15ex in game clean currently tops out around Mach 2.41 while Boeing officially even documented a clean config test reaching Mach 2.5 so it looks like there’s potentially some performance left on the table here, assuming we’re comparing similar flight conditions and configurations
well guys looks like we need some volunteers to bug report this lol didn’t realise the eagle ex could go even faster 💀
@Macron-Spokesman do you think with dynamic BR’s maybe being a widespread thing we may get premium Mirage 2000 soon (or at all)?
I think yes, seeing the F/A-18D example where AMRAAM count can be limited, it could be limited on the M2K to 4 max and without the MICA modification it drops .3 in BR (and likewise, only carry 2 MICA).
the 2.9 Mach is the airframe limit if i remember correctly not what it can do
to be fair the stat cards lie sometimes it might says only 2.4 and be possibly just miswritten give me a few mins to test.
ah that might be it then maybe i had them wrongway round mb,
no no i test it from the dev myself f15ex in game dev version top speed is 2.41 lol didn’t know it is capable of 2.5 dang so rn it cant even do it clean so it either has more drag than it should or less thrust
if you don’t mind me asking what alt?
Also unrelated
What you said is completely meaningless. As long as it can theoretically be fired, it can be used. I can’t be bothered to give specific examples, but both Australia’s SEPv3 and the U.S.'s SEPv3 are 13.3. They should both use the M829A3, not some export ban. Gaijin is just maintaining their pathetic ‘uniqueness’; otherwise, these vehicles would be exactly the same.
yeh its all good i though the f15ex mac speed is 2.45 lol didn’t know it can do 2.5 that’s mighty be good news anyone want to report that in dev it can do barley 2.45 so yeah
Aren’t those top tabs in the iPad display™ supposed to be a darker shade of grey?
EDIT: See
yeah they are meant to be the same black from what i can find online
