Especially the Eurofighter should be higher than anything else unless currently. It puts the F-15E to shame in acceleration, not to mention dogfight performance which is arcade like.
One of the things I was looking forward for this update was to decompress top tier. There is still hope
Japan, USA, and Israel.
Sweden is the only one without a gen 4.5.
lol You’re over-estimating their abilities.
my favorite air youtuber :)
JP - JAS 39 Gripen E
USA - F-15C MSIP II convert AN/APG-63(V)1 to AN/APG-63(V)2 AESA. F-15E RMP (AN/APG-82(V)1 AESA), F-16C PoBiT
Israel - F-15IA
I might think some day gajin could add JAS39E Early
Gripen C (SE) close to 4.5 generation fighter aircraft if gajin convert PS-05/A to PS-05/A Mk4 radar, battle rating up to 14.3 and IRIS-T (RB 98) to replace RB 74(M)
Gajin might decompress battle rating to 14.7 in Q3 2025 or january 2027, my guess
1- noone said that it was okay
2- it doesn’t justify current predicament of EFT/Rafale VS Grippen-C/j-11a/su-27sm
3- if you look at it from sim perspective it goes from hell to worse…cuz red vs blue teams
The F-16C could be considered a 4.5 gen no?
Amen to those sentiments, and thanks for all the great content!
Typhoon cant DL 8 ARHM based on the dev and it can only carry 6. (Currently)
US will still have F-15E with 8 Aim120s and equal/slightly inferior performance to the Typhoon.
Will it be good of course, will it be broken? I dont think so
Bvr the F-15 will prolly still be better
Well, Germany didn’t have 13.7 for half a year, but absolutely everyone had 13.7 at least 1 plane, and some had 2-3 13.7
Inboard pylon never was spotted with MRAAM on actual aircraft
A Eurofighter, armed only with its cannon, in the current state of the game, can bring an F-16 Block 50 armed with six AMRAAMs to its knees, relying solely on countermeasures and effective defensive maneuvers. 👍
It would run out of countermeasures.
I can defeat 10 missiles with 40 medium countermeasures, imagine with 200
Nah not really, unless it’s an AESA F-16 it’s still a 4 gen airframe.
F-15 in-game are all 4th gen too, they don’t have any of the upgrades that would qualify them as 4.5
i saw him do just that in Su-27 and F-15, just the thought of him using EFT scares the hell out of me…
Assuming the gods of multipathing don’t favor you. You will have to merge with the F-16C going sideways while notching, which is a pain to flare aim9m’s
Multipathing is used in rare exceptions and during the final stages of engagements. If you’ve reached that point, it’s likely because you’re going to be taken down anyway.
