Uh… For now, Id guess 16, I really cant imagine it is worth hauling that many just because of the sheer weight and drag it would cause.
I also want to say I recall something about that fit being intended purely for transporting the AMRAAMs or something and they cant be used to fire them
Personally I’d rather see Gaijin model redundant flight controls before modelling stuff to make aircraft even more fragile. It is ridiculous at a single 50 cal round hitting the flight controls is enough to make you lose all tail control in something like a Tornado. IRL the Tornado had triple (in some parts quadruple) redundant fly by wire system, and backup mechanical linkages which engaged in the event of catastrophic damage to the FBW system.
But that is exactly the kind of thing id include in a model overhaul.
Massively increase the fidelity.
Its actually a notable flaw of the A-10C and likely other jets with redundant flight controls. Thr triple redundant flight control size is modelled, but theyre all modelled as one, so it actually ends up making it easier to destroy the module than on jets without redundant systems…
The radar and fire control systems aren’t stored in the engines. It’s that simple. Again I recommend that you read gaijin’s article on the difference between vehicle destruction and severe damage. That will clear some things up.
The energy for these systems still needs to come from somewhere, and I doubt the batteries can sustain a radar for any even remotely long amount of time
Note temperature and conditions can effect top speed significantly.
That is not a 15e that is a picture of a proposed upgrade package for the f15c that nobody bought
Look at the cockpit it is a single seater
its genuinely amazing that like 5 people managed to completely misunderstand him at such a fundamental level. This forum has a massive problem with reading comprehension.
the whole thing that started this chain of you being a massive brick wall to talk to, is me describing fights where someone i cut in half with the Rafale’s 30 mm canon firing HE shells at supersonic speeds is still firing fucking r73’s while im trying to dogfight the inevitable little shit who tries to third party.
A plane completely bricked with 30 mm holes all over the place is unlikely to be able to do anything, and a pilot would EJECT, if that ever happened irl, the moment a pilot sees hes about to get fucked by canon fire they eject to avoid getting turned into tomato sauce.
Both are ugly ah
