The Eurofighter is a better overall plane (in war thunder) I don’t think there’s any real debate to be held there. MICA missiles are just better close engagement missle than the available ordinance for typhoons for now though, ASRAAM and meteor would change that though. Those missiles would just be unfair though as no other plane would be viable
not much that can be done there now. the most powerful fighters ever built are now in the game so russian kit wont ever be on par without everyone else being borked. Rafale and Typhoon shouldn’t have been added yet its almost certainly done irreparable damage to METAs
Su-27 flight model is still underperforming and a Flanker flight model with good radar would be perfectly viable in current meta. Even old Flanker is a lot better with the energy retention buff.
Odd how USA mains don’t like playing the game when they are the ones outnumbered and have to fight things with better flight performance than they have.
bro nato is ahead of russia by 50 - 100 years, china is even worse than russian planes no matter how much I.P they steal. This isnt a opinion this is a fact.
This is an egregious statement, 50-100 years is pure insanity, and is also totally false. 50 years ago was 1974 (1975 in a few days), you really think an F-15A or F-14A is gonna be on equal footing with a modernized flanker?
If we are ahead of Russia and China by 50 to 100 years, then back in 1974, since we were ahead of Russia by 50-100 years, the F-15A (my favorite jet btw so don’t even try to go down the ivan route) and F-14A should be able to combat modernized flankers like J-16 and Su-30SM2 effectively by YOUR logic
Still, not by 50-100 years, that is pure delusion. Especially with 2 6th gen Chinese prototypes, that we know of, currently in flying condition, the gap isn’t nearly that big
