Why bother learning how to notch when you can keep going straight doing MCM defeating all enemy missiles?

how?
valid but id imagine AIM-120’s would be worse at it close in than R-77-1 since they are less manueverable
Israel could get rafale next update, but now i do feel like China need a bit more attention then US especially after PL-12 nerf.
I don’t really know what would help them now
Along with that they could nerf other missiles as well to help Russia :D
Good enough for short to medium range. If you are firing them in HOBS at close range then you screwed up
Yeah most likely and yeah, no idea
so are the other top tier missiles, except they are also much better at HOBS barring the PL-12 which is pretty messed up right now
If you are needing MCM in HOBS, just notch
what about HOBS against other aircraft
Then there isn’t any options until they add next gen IR to all nations.
exactly, so 16 AIM-120 on the EX isnt unreasonable since it helps make up for all its other disadvantages at 14.7 where it would probably be
But is it necessary? I just don’t think it is.
Id add the F15EX with 12 at 14.7…
If it needs more, give it 16, if not… Then don’t add them

even if it does you will argue against it
yes, no gimbal radar like on the 14 missile flankers, very weak FM for the BR, probably no MAWS, not a very fast jet at the BR, and it has to use the AIM-120. missile count is all it has going for it really
GNSS especially paired with AESA is pretty strong actually
It’s an F-15E basically 😭 wdym not a very fast jet
The only other jet that’s barely faster is the Eurofighter
isnt it just modeled as 0 IOG drift
it only kicks in when you lose track afaik so if anything it would help M-scan jets more
what about the Rafale, its pretty quick. It will also very likely come with an Su-35 and/or J-16
One could argue that’s what GNSS is lol
Rafale is slightly faster. Point is, the speed (well, acceleration) difference between all the top aircraft are minimal at best and the F-15EX would be similar in performance (more or less) to the F-15E.
Su-35 you can expect similar to Su-30SM2 performance with slightly lower drag due to lack of foreplanes (or canards if you wanna be French/german about it). J-16 should be the same as J-15, no? Same engines and all
navalized jets tend to be heavier than their land based counterparts
maybe, but im just questioning whether it actually ends up being effective enough that the F-15EX should stay with 12 missiles vs the Su-30SM2’s 14 missiles which are all better for most scenarios
Rafale is only faster at high alt due to a bug
J-16 and j-15 have no correlation airframe wise, but huh the J-16 will probably be worse in most regards than the J-15T unless gajin does something like with the dual racks on the 15T
maybe when ECM is added to the game the j15 could be strong if gaijin just rips stats out of their ass and makes the ECM on it super strong to make up for the low CM count
