This situation is as problematic as how the US struggle on Ground Battles. Neither case should be happening to their respective extents, though the safest bet is that Gaijin won’t look after neither the blatant domination the US has in air, or underperformance on ground.
Spoiler
nothing changed
and how much in other modes? maybe issue thats USA is popular overall?
no actually, opponents lack fighter jets lack necessary to counter the US systems as well as the weaponary , R77 has a range on 10km that guaranties a kill while Aim120 gives 15km range. fighters also lack both flight performance and avionics to counter US fighters (only working RWR is on Su-34 and maybe J-10 I don’t have it) and radars. in case of Su-34 you also lack HMD and a view from cockpit from the top and back( its like flying F-111).
basicly outclassed in everyway.
No intention to set up a debate about this, but back when the F-15A came out without any type of HMS —and i clearly pointed it as a significant disadvantage— i’ve been told that it wasn’t a big deal. Seems like that it’s a valuable asset after all.
Still a lot , USA can rival Soviet in term of playercount both in Air and Ground. Not even germany can match what the US have, the soviet can but lately they are not doing well for obvious reason.
Issue that they have the best top tier line up and barely anyone in the game have jet that can match them ? How hard it is to understand
surely, when enemy has same(or sometimes better) version of US plane… bruh
it has same rwr in game as Su-27SM and MiG-29SMT
well, looks like France, Japan and others doesnt exist… yes?
It is cause with HMD offer a lot of stuff especially when it come to launching R73 from weird angle. Cause the SU34 FM is not that good to be polite. Without HMD you can still do a lot with a good FM , without HMD and a good FM , you are as good as a flying coffin most of the time
it had RWR advantage, engine power advantage, and radar also was better.( and better flight performance).
in case of Su-34 vs F-15E, you only have 27ET to counter it
Lmao bring up Minor nation to compare with Major nation , are you for real. Cherry picking doesn’t help prove anything
That is highly debatable.
main joke - it useless with 9M
with R-73 you can do off-boresight shots in dogfights.
Not when doing medium range off boresight launchs at low altitude targets. Seems like someone forgot the orbital striking 9M meta the Gripen had by using HMS+9Ms at 4km+ targets below.
so, issue isnt US lineup, but overall popularity.
Pretty sure it was , base Su27 radar was not that good compare to F15A. We have SMT but that thing is , bad
well
as thread connected to air sim - theres basicly no cases like that, cus you will got a lot of teamkills, if just throw 9M/other IR missiles into everything
No ? Count the amount of Jet US have that is competitive then compare it to what Japan and france have
theres no point to bring more than 1-2 jets.
so F15E/C/16C worse than that one single jet japan have and that two top tier jet france have. Very cool bro , then again , thread about US in sim . Instead of talking about it gotta go off topic bringing minor nation in cause US le bad , le not the best
