Next Major Update - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 1)

Dagger is a refurbed Nesher.

And not entirely.

I can get the next tech-trees Sherman, sadly this is a lie as I don’t have WW2 finished on half the nations but I can get my most wanted ones

Btw if you run the Hurricane 2x 40mm and the A13 with an event tank and use it in battle, you can milk the events that why since you can get a ton of assist from the Hurricane

oh ok. even then, SHar had much better AAM and generally newer than whatever the Argentines could throw at them. its not a bad jet by any means, but in true air superiority against 4th gen fighters of the time it wouldnt do to great

Really? I tried the 40mm hurricane and didn’t really like it.

The main thing is to not fixate on one target and waste your ammo as even damaging the machine gun or fuel tank will count. Though I mainly come from the side and try to hit the engines.

interesting. usually i do air events so i just bring a jet i like to ARB (will probably be F-14 for the next air event that i like)

They were operating Aim-9Gs vs the Magic Is the Argentines had but rapidly swapped them out for Aim-9Ls.

It literally beat the F-15 in 2v2 combat at a ratio of 3:1 and the F-5E in 1v1 combat at a ratio of 7:1

and yes, its radar wasnt good in look down, because it was never designed for that. Which is why we got the FA2

in close range dogfight. yes it was good but thats why they do training no? i mean surely you arent saying it should be the same BR or higher than F-15 because of its a2a capability

Nope. F-15 was simulating Aim-7 shots.

No, game limitations prevent that and the Harriers are underperforming greatly, but just because the F-15 might be capable, doesnt mean its undefeatable

like I said SHar is a good plane. F-15 is not undefeatable in excercises but the SHar only wins in performance at low altitude and low speed.

as for the flanker being a POS IRL that this stemmed from, i think we agree on that

F-14D beat F15s and F16s it has similar climb to F15E with load

F-14D summer?

Im praying i want it so bad

i mean i think the harrier 2’s are pretty similar in having good IR AAM and good dogfight performance, while being slower than other stuff

I can almost beat euro fighters in gunfights in F14B

And the EFT was designed to take on the Su-27 with Myech radar, R-73’s, and R-27’s. Not the Su-35 or Su-30SM2… Which would be no cakewalk for the EX or the EFT Tranche 4.

Su-27 vs F-15A without AIM-120’s? That’s bold. With AIM-120’s, you have a point.

Also, for all the damn Streak Eagle posting, no one ever puts any respect on the P-42. Shame on you all! :P

Unlike the F-15 and Su-27. I dont think the EFT was designed with a specific threat counter in mind.

Rather was designed to be a multi-role platform that fit the needs of the Eurofighter nations

I completely agree. I just think CAPTOR, iirc when discussing this before, was designed with the Su-27 as a benchmark (right? idk EFT stuff).

If we’re being pedantic, the Su-27 was not designed with the F-15 in mind as competition. It was designed to fit the “Heavy” role in Soviet Tactical aviation, and as a complement to the Air Defense force.

People misconstrue it’s heavy design influence and style cues (from the F-14 and F-15) with what was actually more of a fixed wing F-14 with AL-21’s and proper LERX’s, which was basically the rough idea of the prototype (early) T-10.
