f22 early be like (pre 120C): same (internal) missile load as AV-8B+ 💀 (2x 9M 4x 120B)

With good Radar and flight performance.
And external stores would be 8xAIM-120s. And frankly I don’t think any amount of stealth would make that not ideal with how WT is set up
a gif is all you can post bc you know hes right
given that F-22 would likely be added with a nerfed stealth model if it is the first stealthfighter to be added, taking external missiles wouldnt be the worst idea but once it gets buffed with the inclusion of more stealth fighters then taking external weapons would be very unideal
Maybe 🤷.
Who knows what the devs are going to do at that point.
Supposedly IRSTs should make it largely irrelevant over the distances found in WT.
Hell nah

You don’t have to like it but it’s the objective truth. No other combat aircraft has anywhere near the accolades.

enlighten me as to what you believe is the best then
I could name a few but mainly the eurofighter
Maybe not the best, but at least better than the f15

the F-15 has more a2a kills with guided bombs than the Typhoon does in general

Which came waaay later. F-15 was essentially a eurofighter in terms of tech and performance back way before it.
As far as i understand, IRST is limited by its radar platform. For air platforms most dont have the capability to easily lock a stealth craft at ranges that it would be effective at, and those that do have to engage in specific settings which produces more erroneous results. Ground launched platforms tho might be able to but im not too knowledgable on ground radar stations to say for sure
F-15 more like F-22 of its time imo
EFT outdated on introduction

In a way yeah there was nothing like it for a large number of years.
Literally how?
And if the eurofighter is now considered outdated, you mind telling me what exactly is the F15?

with ASM-135 ASAT
f15 was exported though
- M-scan in the big 2000’s
- Beaten in supersonic regime by F-22
- Beaten at low speed by F-22, Rafale, maybe hornet
F-15 has been consistently upgraded and went from pinnacle air superiority to extremely capable workhorse
just like the eurofighter
