I wonder why that is…
I see many other people trying to do so peacefully… yet, some keep disrupting the thread and turning it into personal attacks…

Thread cleaned a bit… and Trouble makers have a few days off from the Forum…
So, should be peaceful and free from those that keep turning this into a pissing contest… for a few days at least…

What happened?
You remember what happened in the mig-29 thread? That.

I can neither confirm nor deny that the charts are from the Su 27 manual. I don’t know. It could be calculations, or prototypes, or a production Su 27.

If we talk about maneuverability, the Su-27 significantly surpasses the F-15, F-16 to speeds of 700 km/h

It agrees with the opinion from a friend, an RAF test pilot, but he says that doesn’t mean that the Su 27 automatically wins because the pilot is decisive. Curiously he would have taken the F-15 himself.

Yes, you’re right, a lot depends on the pilot.However, if the pilot’s level is the same, the Su-27 is superior to the F-15

In low speed yes, F-15 pilot must be significantly more experienced or otherwise better.
After a certain mach number they are equal and if the speed increases the F-15 is slightly better. It also has to do with the F-15’s emphasis on maneuverability at transonic speeds. Boyd’s theories apply to the F-15 as well as the F-16.
In the language of numbers according to subjective perception it goes something like this: below 375 knots the Su 27 is better , between that speed and M0,85 they are equal and above that speed the F-15 is at an advantage. Surely there is an influence of subjective bias and experience.

Just an FYI, you don’t have to “save it”.
Just change master to whatever version you want. This is also why you don’t have to save the current one.

If you think that the F15 always has to fight at low speeds, then the Su-27 would be superior. In reality, due to the F15’s BVR advantage, it almost always forces opponents into a defensive position in the early stages of combat, and then approaches defensive targets with its excellent speed. Unfortunately, we don’t get to see this in games for several reasons. The F15 should have the advantage from the outset of the engagement.
No? It literally gives exact file ages and the date of the last change, as well as pointing out differences between alike files in something like Np++.
Every .blkx file is measured by its edit date. If it has been edited, differences are then detected. It cannot get any easier than this.
For models? If there was a physical model change, you have to hand-pick that difference. If any figure pertaining to that piece of the model is changed, though, it’s detected automatically.
Oh my, not the fancy tools! I didn’t know Notepad++ was all that special…
Such a hypocrite.
In terms of repair and replacement? Or is it just a 2p2 swap?
Replacing the engine with a new one

Why does the F-15 suddenly have a BVR advantage over the Su-27? if the detection distance is almost the same for both.And the R-27ER is superior to the AIM-7

APG-63 has between 54% more range(if we take the high value for N001) and 93% more range(with the low value in N001) with HPRF.
It doesn’t have that classic 30% loss in range N001s and N019s have for a radar lock but ~10% loss.
Better antenna with much lower sidelobes(slotted array against inverse cassegrain).
Things like NCTR to tell what you are against
A smaller beam width allowing better resolution
And when you need better resolution, modes like RAM(If pre-MSIP) allow you to view closely spaced targets
TWS(MSIP)
Filters, performance, reliability, etc
Could be argued. One has longer guidance time, guidance algo, lofts, can be shot farther and no RWR warning when firing the sparrow.
But the ER has obscene kinematic performance.
And don’t forget the get classic SPO-15 RWR which lights up as a “christmas tree” when the Radar or Jammer is in use. Which unironically limits you to using either one of these 3: RWR or Radar or Jammer
But SU-27 has basically datalink which is a nice big plus.
