Don’t you usually want 2 aircraft. One with less munitions or munitions they can drop early clutter radar to dodge and keep radar on while the other launch’s the Anti rad
Ideally, but you can do it with one if needed
you’re confusing stuff. “Space can"t save you” just comes from the fact that the US developed an anti-satellite air lauched missile that was launched from f-15. It has nothing to do with the EX being a better F-15… It was literally launched by a F-15A (also later the program was abandoned, mainly for political reasons)
And I insist, the EX was an Advanced Eagle F-15 which was straight up a F-15E upgrade.
Would you mind explaining to us how exactly the introduction date affects the ingame performance?

That is true. I enjoy Growling sidewinders wild weasel videos they’re very entertaining.
yeah, later variants, I think it was the AGM-88G that added terminal guidance in 2012, the ALARM was retired by the RAF next year.
So, the ALARM and HARM were equivalents until recently, and you’re forgetting that they’re both later anti-radiation missiles, you’ve completely skipped over the AGM-45 and AGM-78

they could at least give an actual counterpart radar like APG-82 for F-15E or APG-63v3 for F-15C which are AESA like RBE2-AA
For the time period it wasnt all a SAM had to was turn the Radar off and the HARM would miss/loose track
ALARM it would fly if the Radar was then turned off it would continue to where it knew the emissions were. Deploy the parachute and wait.
As soon as the operator turned the Radar back on it would drop onto the Radar.

I’m sure they will soon enough, but the US is still better off than 4 other countries, they need more attention right now than you do

It’s not the time it was made that matters it’s the ability of the aircraft.

and the abilities of the much older M-scan are behind the abilities of the much newer AESA
That is true however the F 15 is still very strong
It is literally just the Rafale, no one else has actual top tier AESA yet

i mean thats why its 13.0 and not 14.0?
yeah, it’s borderline top tier, I’m talking about actual top BR aircraft, you know, the ones that actually matter to this conversation
16.7% of all 14.0 aircraft have AESA radar and F-15E does not
yeah 1 of 6.
While we’re throwing numbers around, did you know that only 60% of nations have a 14.0
