77-1s are still the 2nd best arh in top tier, and the near instant pick-up rate makes the search area a much smaller issue compared to mechs (just try scanning something with an average m2k radar compared to say, F-15C radar)

Almost completely useless in arb. Regular digital rwr already does most of the grunt work and you only really need MAWs against IRs.

Still has better ergonomics than e2k, at least it doesn’t flop around like fish out of water. Dogfighting capability is nigh irrelevant compared to sustained defensive capability, which rafale still easily accomplish. Sure, it’ll lose to an F-2A dogfight, but can an F-2A sustain mach 2? Can an F-2A regain speed in defensive maneuvers like rafale?

J15T is the more maneuverable than the J16 and the J16 is ugly, nobody likes 2 seaters let’s be real, and tri wing aircraft are kino

not worth engaging with this lol

Pulls more AoA, but has less sustained turn rate, especially at speed. This is backed up by Statshark.

That’s your taste ig, I kinda like 2 seaters, (not neccesrily the J-16 though, maybe a strike eagle)

This doesn’t matter, idk why you brought it up.

You mean when gaijin artificially decides when its time to release it?

Because it should be sitting at 14.7

That’s simply where it should be sitting in its current state

It shouldn’t. Not as capable as 14.7s.

It’s on par with if not better than the aesa euro in 16v16 air RB

So yeah, it should be 14.7

seriously. you cannot counter with a missile like the su-30, gripen, eurofighter, rafale while being launched at because the radar cannot see far to the side. AIM-120s have awful high AOA performance, and I don’t even want to talk about the AIM-9Ms. people saying the US has the best top tier jet are just objectively wrong.

Yeah, that’s true
However they DO have the best 14.3 rn

worse acceleration, worse turning for notches, worse RWR, no MAW, a fraction of the radar coverage, no supercruise, but it has 2 more missiles so its definitely better bro

Su-30SM

4 more Fox-3’s
Fox-3’s are infinitely more useful than 9Ms in the average scenario
Not to mention GNSS

Worse due to PESA radar, arguably worse FM, worse defensive kit and no GNSS missiles

However it should also be 14.7
Only reason it isn’t is due to Su-30SM2

I expect F-15EX to do the same thing to the C GE

only really helps with constant radar pings, which are severely limited by the radar’s coverage

pretty much no real difference ingame.

better for going into and out of notch?

fair enough, but better radar coverage and R-77-1 being leagues better than AMRAAM more than makes up for it

GNSS is useless when the radar can’t keep the target on DL because of how easy it is to notch, plus the loss of DL when it initially gets a lock.

gaijin does not have PESA modeled. it works the same as all the AESA radars in game.

As far as I’m aware from testing PESA does not have the same capabilities as AESA modelled when it comes to keeping targets outside search zone updated
But I’ll double check this

Still is a notable advantage
More useful in 16v16 scenarios than just 1v1s
