Likely in the next update the f-15EX will come and if I had to guess, I’d say it’ll come with the Su-35, since Gaijin would love to milk a trailer featuring both of them. We might even see the introduction of ECM, though that’s very unlikely.
Don’t need to when I am among them and most people I chat with are in that category
Definitely next update unless we are stretching it to Christmas and saving Gen 5 for March next year.
And any half-decent player can hunt and close distance on a single F-15C GE, the EFT is not only faster, but they wont be flying parallel to each other. Consistently good defensive play can, and likely will play into the EFT’s favor as the engagement goes on
120D may be better than the C-5, it is a downgrade to the AIM120A/B
Depends on the context. I personally prefer C5s over the Bs.
Honestly, it’s an upgrade now, the difference between C/D pull and A/B pull isn’t so big now
At this br with aesa radars longer range shots are also a bit more viable
C GE still gets more A/Bs so it’s whatever lmfao
More energy for the BVR joust is what I need I know close range the 120s are pretty poor
even then
just use the Aim-120B on the golden eagle
This isn’t a 1v1
Even then the F-15 can just, MCM the euro (like it or not that’s what can happen)
While doing so it will force the euro into a defensive position which is really hard to pull a win from
Yeah, but even close range, the C5s chasing someone down is just funny, they dont even try to defend, they just try to outrun it, which mgiht work vs a B, but not a C5
I find the difference noticeable, but BVR still does not seem like a viable strategy, I have no reason to play into it in the EFT, or F-15C GE
Never said bvr
I mainly focus around 15km launches
Sub 10 the A/B amraams are obviously better
But C GE can run those too
I might be the only person that doesn’t want to see ecm. It would honestly just ruin bvr and the way gajins models things in this game i feel like aircraft like f15 with 120’s would suffer so bad.

So, are you saying the EFT will be getting MCM’ed, and have an AIM-120 fired at it?
You’re not
Majority of good players don’t want ecm or next-gen tech
That’s a very big possibility and advantage the F-15 has over the euro
Oh bet. Glad I’m not alone on that
MCM has to be THE dumbest meta that has ever emerged. If it’s not fixed this update or next, 5th gens are going to be DOA
Su-35S has DIRCM on the newest models making it immune to IR missiles based on how Gaijin have modelled it currently.
I am not sure on jamming and if they will allow ECM attacks
