Why though? F15E will still be on par with both of them and still leagues better than any other 14.0

ye it has multirole but like i said, it is the closest thing to a tactical bomber in the modern day
@Smin1080p_WT out of curiosity have mechanics such as ground based target designation for aircraft (like lasing/painting) been considered?
i dont think you uderstand. i am saying just EFT and Rafale to 14.3 and rest stays put. Su-30SM at 14.0 too and J-11B, but 4.5 airframe can stay at 14.3
plenty of letters left, I mean the AIM-9 made it all the way to M/P before they got weird

flight performance wise both eurofighter and ef2000 clown on f15E every day the only thing that its good for is climb high and spamming missiles
you are forgetting the SA, QA, SG, SR, SE, K all in between

we dont talk about them XD all these silly names single letter designation is better
It still isn’t a tactical bomber. It’s a multirole strike fighter (or dual-role fighter, going by that website).

SA is for Saudi Advanced (since its an advanced eagle), Q in QA is for Qatar Advanced, SG is for SinGapore, SR is a Saudi Refit of older F-15S, SE is Silent Eagle, K is Korean
Its a good thing flight performance like dogfighting rarely plays a role in the current environment unless you’re in SIM, in which case the F15E is still 2nd place next to the EFT.
I’d say something like the JH-7, SU-24, and Tornado are a lot closer

Didn’t they skip ahead for the J and the P ahead of time tho?
they are older though no? and doesnt Tornado have less a2g ability than F-15E?

because USAF and USN hate each other in cold war
we also completely left out j10A
The Navy and Air Force got assigned different letters, and the navy made a lot more models I think, most of them worse than the AF
