i said 2013 bc Morvran though advanced eagle series started with the F-15EX in 2024. and Meteor only flew on Typhoons in 2018.
afaik the F-15SA never tested 120D’s and idk if it used 9x blk2
I would put the advanced eagles as direct Eurofighter and Rafale contemporaries.

So. F-15E performs well against the Typhoon arleady, but you need an even more powerful platform, with 12x AMRAAM?
The balance would be F-15SA with Aim-120Bs vs Typhoon with Aim-120C5s given the Typhoon carries half the number of AMRAAMs.
I mean if broachers can get certain russian things added then trenche 4 EFT should have the ability to carry 14 Meteors
This is true
F-15 CFT AMBER racks and quad AMRAAM racks are about as real as the dual R-77 racks lol. and since they gave dual R-77 to planes that never used them, i dont see why the extra racks could come to EFT and F-15

oh how interesting and the AIM-120D wasnt finished until 2014 meaning both would have AIM-120C5s

yeah, but i also said it would be 120C on 120C earlier
Had anyone suggest soviet GBU named “SB-1M or KAB-436” yet? I think it’s pretty interesting to see in game

I see fair I still think 9/10 times goes to the EFT just because of ASRAAM assuming its modelled at all like it is IRL
no idea hope not
i mean there are spectral flares and BOL pods for F-15’s, IIR is very lethal dont get me wrong but at the ranges ASRAAM is you will have time to react, especially with a modern MAWS like on the F-15SA
just hope that USAF would put at least MAW on F-15EX… also IRST, GE-132 would be quite usefull

Hope not? Why so? It’s just 250kg tv-guided bomb for Tu-2S
