There is only one Fox-1 that actually hard to beat - R-27ER on any Flanker and maybe N010 equipped Fulcrums, anything else is a pretty easy evade, unless you are in a bad position already
It’s more like what lobby you get into. Because i saw 4 UK phantoms today, and every single one was one brancell above lobotomite. It’s not hard hitting 30km shot with a Sparrow on an enemy like this.
If you fire them from the correct top down angle they will for the most part ignore MP.
Meaning people who think they are safely Multipathing will take a sparrow to the face.
No radar missile is particularly hard to avoid if you learn how to avoid them.
As for the F-15 its performance is brilliant. If not overperforming in a lot of areas.
It should not be 12.7 especially with 9M
They dominated alone in the F-14 era, than they shared the F-16A era with a bunch of other nations, the F-15A was mostly dominated by the Gripen, the F-15C domination era was shared with Japan (which has an even better F-15C), F-15E domination was shared with Israel and any top tier US additions after the F-15E have been added too late and are hardly noteworthy (although the F-15C GE is okay now).
Disagree on the former, may possibly agree on the latter.
If you’re removing IRCCMs to the F-15A/J/Baz, you’re moving the F-16 OCU to 13.0, otherwise you’re just screwing the F-15s for the love of the game (and up to no one’s suprise, another player that haven’t played the F-15 series at all is eaglesplaining).
I’ve fought tons of them close enough lol.
Yeah but the F15A gets uptiered into ARH slinging lobbies which just out do every SARH missile in game.
Aye I get what you mean lol
Must of been some AFK players mate cause the AIM7 F and E or E-2 are not gonna get many players at that range who aren’t
The F15E was far more prominant than the Isrealie one mate.
The F16A era what was shared? the F16A had the best flight performance of the others while lacking the SARH missiles.
Still does have one of the best FMs in the game.
F15A when released was absolutely one of the top 3 in game, combined witht eh fact the F14 was still as dominant in lobbies due to the sheer volume it could sling out with the pheonixes.
F15E had marginally better acceleration than the F15I, it was also far, far more prominant in lobbies shredding them.
They’ve still consistently had additions which are competitive in their own rights.
They also still have several BRs in which their planes are arguably the best.
F15C GE seems to be pretty good now in comparison to before.
The F15A should not be 12.7 with 4 xAIM9M to be fair, if it got 4 x9L and the Sparrows it would be fine.
they were near identical and the difference was not noticeable it was more prominent because more people played the US and that’s it, and i feel like your forgetting the part where it was power-cliffed like a month later by the Eurofighter and rafale.
Not really more like people in SIM who thought they were safe in the MP. Meanwhile I was firing top down from 25,000 feet at 1.25 Mach
You are forgetting that current Eurobomber and Rafail are quite different to the release versions. They were changed quite substantially over the time. And if you look at current situation they also sit at least 0.3 br above the US space shuttle
the Eurofighter was better than the F-15E day 1.
Not in ability do get kills. Mechanical radar on a Eurofighter is quite weaker than on F-15E and on release it often went full schizo mode detecting pretty much everything except enemy planes.
still, the F-15I was better (50% more countermeasures)
yes bro, F/A-18, F-16 with 6 missiles max, crippled AIM-120C, and F-15C without good RWR or MAWS that took lots of complaining to get its rightful MRML are so competitive against Su-30’s, EFT’s, and Rafales that all got double racks of ARH missiles that were never put on them IRL.
Gripen C and A were functionally identical. Which are now absolutely nuetered.
However at addition they absolutely were baby planes and were the number 1, hence why I said the F15A was in the top not was the top. I am aware it wasn’t the single best plane when released
Su27 had the advantage in missiles but the F15 mogged it in every other field.
the same as Su27 F15a still mogs it.
Effectively the same plane.
F15C is fine mate? what lol I’ve got the thing.
The F18A is stupidely strong at 12.3 and the F18 A/C at 12.7 is also a really great plane.
The only F18 which was and is pretty obsolete compared to the current top dogs is the 14.0 + F18s.
Aim120C are crippled? They not the longest range ARHs bar the fakours for effective range? last I was looking into it hte R77-1 was better at mid and close ranges.
Uhm the EFT has those racks IRL mate?
Rafale I know absolutely bog all about bar it’s the best top tier plane in game.
also does the SU30 not get extra two missile hardpoints in game on the engine section?
No ARH, that’s a Gaijin fabrication
As for Su-27/J-11, they had an overwhelming missile advantage as well as HMS
As for F-18’s, yeah the earlier ones are fine but it’s the C late and E at top tier I’m talking about. The F-15C GE is fine right now, but it took a lot of complaints and bad performance to get it there
as for the ARH they have trialed and tested it on the Eurofgither for the meteor, at least britain has man.
like i said, but they got ripped on in every other field the R27 was pretty obsolete, same as sparrows due to the multipath height.
The R73s were also broken as hell as they lost so much speed thrust vectoring and would spin out.
R27ER could and still can capitalize on those opportunities when people went above MP infinitely better than a sparrow. And there is also the ET, which removes that problem
I mean the MSIP F15C I haven’t got the GE yet, plan on getting hte 16C then the new 16.
As for the F18Es and such, they need decompression to become viable, they’re still decent planes, not bad not great
Grippies FM slaps
However it’s basically a sea harrier FA.2 for BVR work.
the FM is still nto what it should be at all
