Next Major Update "Sky Odyssey" - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 2)

wasnt that before they went to 14.7 max?

also i would not say that initial F-15C GE (no BOL or MRML added yet) was better than the m scan EFT which had its dual racks at that point

The same logic applies to the British EFT, though its more that we dont have a top tier ground lineup worth using it with. The British EFT has the lowest ratio of Air kills vs ground kills of all the EFTs by a wide margin.

F-15C GE though is higher than both Rafale and EFT in K/S

In K/D its still top 3 just barely behind the Rafale the British AESA

and since when is the rafale 14.3?

can you read?

It straight up was.

CAPTOR-M is still one of the worst M-Scan radars at top tier. Which rendered it basically DOA vs anything with ESA.

and didnt the F-15C GE get BOL or MRML in the same update the EFTs got dual rack?

you say it dosent have the best stats at 14.3

proceeds to list 14.7 aircraft as an example

unless you mean the mech EFs which very much have worse stats than the F-15 GE

ill take that as a no
image

it had absolutely nothing besides the radar, EFT had missile count, RWR, MAW, IRST, FM, speed, acceleration advantage

I’m looking at K/S, in August and June the F-15C GE was in the top spot, in July it was close with the Rafale and the British EFT

The reason why the Rafale has a higher K/D is because it is used as CAS, not despite being used as CAS

Or the MICA are still OP as hell

No, a huge part of it’s kills are ground kills

no it is not

stat shark kd and ks do not count ground kills

there is no way in which being used in CAS would improve either

I think its 50/50

UFO FM, very good defensive suite and MICA EM, still make it crazy dangerous in ARB.

but does it count the deaths though from GRB?

yes it does

Right.

So an aircraft that is performing poorly in GRB will have more deaths, than an aircraft barely being used in GRB or one performing very well.

Which would then have an impact on the K/D and K/S in regard to the Air kills.

This is a big reason why I think the British AESA is so far ahead of the Italian and especially german AESAs in K/D and K/S

Britain doesnt have a top tier worth really using.

Huh, didn’t realise the K/D didn’t include ground kills

In that case the Rafales and Typhoons K/Ds should be worse than that of the F-15C GE, which is why I am basing this on K/S

not really

its more of being used more in GRB means more deaths in GRB
which means worse KD and KS

which also doesnt include ground kills and is worsened by use in GRB

True, but a bad aircraft in GRB will naturally have more deaths than a good one.

In addition to the increased deaths affecting the overall K/D rating

(honestly, they really should give ARB stats and GRB stats for aircraft)
