Afaik the captor e is s pretty bonkers radar at that.
I just want a radar that doesnt show disrepancy of up to 1km between targets real position and one picked up by captor-m 😭

I mean if you are pulling 14Gs then ofc you’ll bleed the speed at high altitude, it’s physics. xD

F-15E is leagues heavier than a Eurofighter or Rafale and when all 3 of these aircraft have similar thrust to weight for their respective airframes… It would be weird (like day 1 F-15E 😂) for it to not lose more speed than eurocanards which were made specifically for energy retention (among other things).

Captor M would defecate on the RBE2 AESA in capability… but alas, Gaijin loves keeping GB/ITA/GER mains in a perpetual state of suffering 😬

Oh yeah seeing the radar be off by like 5KM while you can literally see the plane with your naked eye is a personal favourite of mine
I think the comparisons to the Su30sm are unnecessary as someone who mains the US and RU The SU30sm is the most balanced jet at 14.3 and a decent counterpart to the F15GE the real problem is how insanely early the devs added jets like the Eurofighter and Rafale to the game, they pretty much ruin any jets that come after them that arnt 5th gen Jets.
Like what is a Gripen E and Super hornet even gonna do in this kinda meta. and why the hell are they not in the game yet.

I feel like these 2 would perform wildy different to each other in the current meta
yeah i know the point im making tho is that stronger planes than these are already in the game

Eh i feel like the Gripen E would probably be better than the EFT at least.
maybe in a close in dogfight but the Eurofighter is better at everything else
Maybe im tripping but the Gripen E has an AESA and can carry 7 amraams plus 2 IR missiles, right? How would the EFT be better?
Maybe youre mixing it up with the Gripen NG?
if more missiles and an AESA radar meant better plane the SU30 would be the best jet in the game. the problem here is the huge speed and thrust gap.
Because he’s simply good at what he does rsrs, especially in the hands of someone who knows how to use him, he may not be the fastest or most maneuverable, but he also doesn’t forgive hard hits and punishes his opponents’ mistakes.
Sure but the Gripen is also not as fat as the SU30 and has an upgraded engine so its not as slow as the 39C. Im not sure if the kinematics of the EFT can make up for the radar difference especially considering how blind Captor M is
the f15JM is significantly better than the f15c
it is noticeably lighter and has a much better missile load

the issue is, that if amraam is buffed that will also significantly help its competition and maybe even hurt the f15ge because eft and f15e will both be better platforms that have the buffed missile and will still give the missile significantly better launch conditions

it does, but JM is noticeably lighter than the f15c (and gets much better missiles)
