Storm Warning - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 2)

Depends on what factors you believe to be the most important. In modern combat the F-35 is leagues better due to better sensors, sensor fusion, and multirole capabilities whilst the F-22 has slightly better stealth and can do pirouettes (which is completely useless in actual combat and only good for showoffs). The F-22 would probably be better in WT simply due to how unrealistic the gameplay is with furballs and dogfights and that all of the F-35s sensors which makes it so deadly IRL are guaranteed to be underperforming due to how classified they are.

Great, the Snail killed the game. Randomly crashing and closing, I bet it is because of the dual anti cheat they are now running.

Magic 2 and MICA are fantastic close in, but im inclined to agree with you about the PL5EII and PL8B.

Between a J10B and EFT i think flight performance would be more relevant than missiles in a close-in fight.

I have at no point been talking about real life, in war thunder the F-35 will be worse therefore it will likely come before the F-22

Because their weapon is limited.
If you add IRIS-T to the bunch the german eurofighter wins in the wvr battles.

Asraam, iris-T got denied for this patch so i wouldnt be so sure you guys are getting advanced iir missles

Yeah, both anticheats not good.

you also have to remember it has a pitiful loadout

Not just this patch, ALL advanced IR guided missiles got denied for the forseeable future in an A2A role.

Agreed, the Euroufighter has better wing loading and thrust/weight than the J-10 as far as I can tell so it would likely win that fight but it all depends on how they’re implemented

Exactly

Considering theres numbers for EFT and none really for J10 or Rafale, I again know what jet I’m betting on.

the whole “f35 is slow and heavy” propaganda is insane, like ok F35 cant win a dogfight 10/10 against an F22, but irl dogfights DO NOT and SHOULDN’T happen anymore in war, and the same way we might not in-game because missiles will be way too advanced (+more pylons), F35 also has newer systems while also being twice as cheap than F22, it can also carry bombs and such, +HMD while F22 pilots dont have HMD officially

the whole “ur crazy, therefore ur arguments are wrong” is cheap and old buddy, i suggest you cut the toxicity because I never been toxic towards you

still f35 is way better at dogfights than F18, F16, F15 etc - totally irrelevant

ASRAAM and IRIS-T got denied for this patch, PL-8B is basically guaranteed if the J-11B comes in

A certain conflict has already shownbthis to be the case. They still happen

if u compare that with the actual american tech and actually 5 years of pilot training that american pilots get…

F-16 would win anyway. You just cant overcome aerodynamics with engine power.

nor do I hope it ever becomes active, it’s so cheeks XD

If the pl8b is so much worse then them, then it might come
