EFts still only have amraams.
The rafale still is way worse cause the MICA is busted,
Radar can be as good as you want it. But the missles are thing that shape a plane the most at the end.
Besides that genius the gripen e is coming as well.
As someone who has played all of the top airframes, unless there is a fundamental change in air rb and ARH missile mechanics so BVR is viable, the Rafale will remain the best plane at top tier. even things like the f-22 may not dethrone it, depending on how they are implemented.
ok so i checked it currently has a max 70-30 scan just with a wider gimbal limit so in terms of actual awareness its not much greater than the f15ge or su30
I care only about the fact of adding Pantsir exclusively, and it’s an only example, most famous one. Same stuff happened to fnf heli missiles, guided munitions and so on. Minor nations always sucked, so there’s nothing special in AESA nerf, it won’t change anything.
