US made weapon?
india has a lot of us made avionics and weapons .
top in my head are ah64 / engine for tejas / C17

Well not really because Jets with more missiles have no real penalties. They all spawn in the air so fuel is not a concern and they can fly their theoretical top speed. F-15GE will do Mach 2.4 with full load out. Which we know is not physically possible with 12 missiles and fuel.
Typhoon is limited in payload but has no real advantage to carrying fewer missiles. It would make players consider if they want the performance hit from carrying 12 missiles.
yes Tejas and I forgot about the Ah-64s
😂🤣

this is extra funny given that it tops out around 2.35 with 4 amraams, in the low drag recessed pylons this guy was yapping about
also funnily enough this is slightly underpreforming, because it should be able to go slightly faster than that with 4 sparrows on those pylons which have ~50% higher drag index than amraams there

Stat card says 2.6 when it was added the F-15E with the bigger engines was doing Mach 2.3+
Couldn’t keep up with one in the Typhoon.
All gaijin needs to do is model drag and weight and not have ace combat level drag physics. It is not hard
there is so much wrong in this comment that I dont even know where to start
how can it say 2.6 when it (incorrectly) rips at 2.4
despite having higher low speed thrust, the -220 engines on the F15C should produce more thrust at high speeds which results in a higher top speed
release F15E absolutely could, and would have easily outran typhoon
and as a result of this whining the F15E still has a fucked up thrust curve at high speed, where above ~M1.9 thrust is constant, and doesnt increase as it should

No way 229 makes less thrust than 220 at speed
Yes I couldnt keep up in the Typhoon
You are correct Mach number is listed as 2.4, my mistake.
-220 engine aircraft
-229 engine aircraft
despite the different styles both are from the same manual
note the higher top speed for aircraft with -220 engines

Can’t wait for the US mains to find out the F-22 has no HMD…
scorpion entering service on F-22 and has been tested since like 2014

cant wait for people who say this to find out that the F22 tested HMD since very early in its service life

Because we all know Gaijin will absolutely add HMD to a western aircraft just because it’s been tested

Add Gripen A and Mirage 2000-5F to the list.

I beg to differ…top tier no, but the Kfir C.10 has an AESA radar. Just lacks the amount of missiles as other top tier jets. It would be worse than the Su-30 mk problem if it had 6-8 missiles.
A 14.7 that needs it to stay relevant compared to a 5th generation that has lacked it operationally for decades and would likely be used to fill a gap or offer a squadron/premium option rather than having two of the same generation at the same BR.
Then again, we only have a single actual AD F-16 in the US TT; the rest of them are ANG F-16s - wouldn’t put it past Gaijin to completely ignore AD airframes yet again and just add a Hawaii ANG Raptor… US air tree is the work of a madman at this point
I specified tech tree ESA radar
Which Israel does not have until this update comes out
The average person won’t have the Kfir C.10, nor will they get it
