The F-15C Golden Eagle is better than a F-16C with AESA. And even the Golden Eagle is outdone in pretty much every metric that matter by stuff like the AESA Eurofighters or Su-30SM2.
The new F-16C is fully dead on arrival with only 6 missiles if its supposed to fight at 14.7. Even the F-18E will be better than it.
The F-15EX is the only equivalent to what we currently have in-game at 14.7.
Longer tracking and distance mean nothing if the missile performance isnt changed.
Sure the missile can reach 100km now, but its going to be extremely slow just like the C5 that a simple barrel roll can defeat it.
Ok I don’t want to sound like an arbiter of knowledge but I don’t I’m not trying to be mean you do have a skill issue With my friend, I uptier my the MiG-29SMT to the top tier multiple times, and I performed ok even if I had 6 AAM.
Technically C-5 can circle around the earth if it is put into an orbit in the space, now it gets infinite range. OMG C-5 has infinite range it’s so OP, we need to buff R-77-1 again!
You’re missing the point I’m making the point I was making is even the C5 still has better energy retention and can reach further distance with more energy than for example an r77-1
I average 3-4 kills per death when I bring the F-15E to Air RB and a K/D of 8 or so in SB with the now spaded F-18E so you couldn’t be further from the truth.
Furthermore, skill or not, it’s just a fact that the F-15C GE will have better raw performance than the upcoming F-16C AESA.
And that the Eurofighter AESA, Rafale, and Su-30SM2 are all better than the F-15C GE.
The F-15C GE and F-18E aren’t 14.3 because of supposed US skill issues but because these airframes are inferior to 14.7 in-game. It’s not rocket science my dude.
Who cares? Its a game about tanks, military aircrafts, guns bla bla…war ffs. Its to be expected that you will see such names and depending where you are from you find different stuff offending…dont be a snowflake
First of all I’m always talking about r77-1 I don’t know what that has to do with Raffles and eurofighters they have your missiles AKA C5s I don’t know when was the last time you played an su-30 but it’s not the best
And it’s really not the F-15 golden eagle can climb faster have more energy and have better launch parameters than the su 30 So the su 30 is in disadvantage So I don’t know when was the last time you played an su 30 but it’s really not as good as you’re making it out to be
Ok youre taking this thing too far.
Using equal launch speeds and parameters, at a target 40km away approaching at 500 m/s the Aim120c-5 will reach a target a whole 1.3 seconds before the R77-1.
Yes it does retain mor energy than the 77-1, but the differences are not marginal enough for you to be saying theyre better soo plainly
