Considering how they would’ve butchered the base missile’s AOA regardless of the F-15s/EFs having them or not, at this point its not really a big threat as its just a less draggy 120A/B with a sustainer.
If you want to find threats with the change (or, well, the lack of it), the SLAMRAAM will be a meme because of the revamp. We’ll have to wait for AIM-9Xs performance, but i don’t think it’ll be groundbreaking.
player stats arent everything, when us player are nutorious for being some of the worst players cause of premium rushers and have no knowledge at top tier
The F-15E is still one of the best bvr vehicles were the aim 120 currently excells. When you cant use the vehicle right its a you problem
SLAMRAAM would definitely be the worst new spaa
I support anything that ruins soviet top tier.
It would at least give the F/A-18C something going for it. Currently it just gets shit on in BVR by the F-15E and EFT while also getting shit on in close range by the Rafale and even the EFT. It just does almost everything either mid or mediocre.
Yeah I’m not having high hopes for the slamraam anymore.
it still will, with identical launch 120A hits faster than 120C out to around 20km
and its not gonna get its improved close range performance because gaijin in their infinite wisdom decided to also give it to one of the meta airframes
Is Eurofighter going to recieve this thing called a “Radar” too?
After the TWS+ change the eurofighter radar is about as buggy as F-15Es… basically all mech scan scan radars got hit by it. It’s not like the Eurofighter has some TERRIBLE radar compared to the competition anymore.
EF2000 shouldn’t get the aim120c for balancing issues heheh, now buff the rafale.
Right behind the Rafale is the Eurofighter in terms of winrates. Why are you ignoring the the EFT is a good aircraft?
hey special corps guy, where did i say the eft is a bad vehicle?
Rafale
EFT
F-15e is the current ranking, i already stated that later on below already as well.
Only cause the eft is in 3 nations doesnt make it the better vehicle by giant amounts
They stay 1 aircraft in rankings
I did, excellent news.
The hard part was getting them. Fixing them is the easy part.
Winrates/KD are a useless metric because most F15Es I see (in SB) drop bombs and J out
Su-30SM performs better than the F-15E. That would make it 4th.
if you dont try to dogfight in the F-15E but do bvr battle , it does in fact perform better
use a vehicle to its strengths. If a premium rusher rushes to top tier and doesnt know how to climb and use fox 3 of course the amraam which are the best bvr missles gonna perform worse then the better close range missle R-77-1
US player specialy are notoriously bad air players cause so many rush the grind with premiums
BVR with the worst plane to get into defensive positions? I’m not denying the F-15E is good at BVR but eventually the F-15E will lose either to being a brick and not being able to notch, or it being flooded by planes with more missiles.
It’s strength is not very viable right now.
Whatever dude.
someones sounds salty and called out
I think thats too early for giving 120c5 to EFT and F-15E. We should wait few majors. But the only one that will not break the balance - F/A-18C.
