What is the F-15E hype about?

Bringing up stuff that doesn’t matter to the prior conversation. 50G changes quite literally nothing (0%) of long range combat. It also isn’t a measure of the missile’s agility in case you were wondering.

Yeah that doesn’t seem right. Rafale isn’t really meant to go very fast

Sorry for the late reply, I’ve been very sick

I unlocked F-15I and spaded it and now never want to use it again. I’d rather sling F90s in Iranian F-14 than be an AIM120 slinger. But I’m a ground player, not the next coming of Tom Cruise. Ayit is way more fun, though.

That wasn’t a 10km shot. You shoot at over 30km at low altitude against someone also going at low altitude. That’s a very long range for any missile and incredibly easy to evade by just not heading into the missile. If you were 10km high and your target too, 30km range shots would make more sense.

Then you turned away from that guy you did not kill and you exposed yourself completely to a rear aspect fox3 at altitude, while launching an aim9m to someone outside of decent parameters, while not even leading the missile, and then you got killed by a random pl-12 and if it wasn’t for that missile, that first guy would have killed you with the incoming aim120 in your rear.

I would advise you to fall back to at least early jets and get a hang of the game. Top tier is too chaotic for new players, and it requires a great deal of awareness to have a good time.

30 km shot is crazy. Even at super high altitude, I usually never shoot at more than 25ish km.
Other when doing the 27er unlock and relock last second trick, I launch those at around 40-50 km at 10km alt.

Another reason why I prefer spamming Fakour90 over AIM120. Launch F90 from 60-80KM out and just glide as you guide them in. Easy way to grind air events, that’s for sure.

it wasn’t 30km, maybe you looked at the wrong shot. i vividly remember waiting till i was at 10km to shoot

If I recall correctly, you shot 1 aim120 at over 30km and then you shoot an aim9m to someone out of range and then you died.

If you want me to take a look again, tell me the exact time of the issue.

Justice for F-15

Change the title to past tense.

Everyone has long since learned how to evade AIM-120s, and not just AIM-120s. But that doesn’t make the F-15E irrelevant. Its only drawback, or rather two drawbacks, are its eight AIM-120s and its weak radar. Even with that, it’s still capable of scoring two or three kills. But to do that, you need to learn the radar.
