What's new

22 top airforces (based on plane quality and quantity).

LOL, no. The fighter detection of APG-68v(9) is about 95 km. For F-15A its about 120 km range C - more, I even more.
:lol: "fighter detection" What fighter? F5, F15, Su27, they're all fighters, and F15 is a much larger aircraft than F16. If you put the RCS into account the gap in the between will be much smaller.

In look down mode u should divide the range by 2. When EW employed even further. Welcome to the real world.
You don't fire missiles in lookdown mode so it doesn't mean crap. I don't wanna comment on EW, we're buying new EW pods and suites with different specs, and these stuff are too open to speculations.
F-14A has 160 km fighter detection. :) F-14D - more.
lol yes, we all know F14 has radar of a mini-awacs AND the fact that it's not compatible with AIM 120, not to mention the ancient avionics. Back off dude, F14 has nothing on a block 50+ F16.
No, F-22 has more thrust.
yeah, my bad... I read something about that a while ago, crappy memory

Clean F-15 has indeed much larger RCS than clean F-16. But When you put missiles, tanks pods on fighter u drastically increase its RCS and they all became close.

First of all you do fire. Secondly it means a lot. One who detects first has a huge advantage even if he cant fire yet. He can start maneuvering and prepare a nice ambush.

In real world (not one in your mind) EW is employed and detection is decreased drastically.

Yes F-14 has monster radar. It was shooting down small aircraft like flies.

Altitude, speed and maneuver mean a lot.

You have lots of self opinion: you think you are smarter than airforces of US, USSR, China, India, Israel, Japan, Korea... altogether. :lol: But sorry u are not.
 
page 25 , still posting rubbish on estimations of a fanboy ........

anyhow no single sane mind will ever read this shyte :)
 
@500 dude what do you do? You are very knowledgeable in military stuff.

Where would you rate Iran and how many do you estimate F-14's are combat ready?
 
how come iran is behind Syria and north korea?..
Plain numbers.

Iran has 156 jets, Syria - 235, NK - 614. All are equally outdated.

Tnx. U can check my profile. I served as tanker and military is my hobby.

No one knows for sure, but I think that WAF estimate 26 combat ready F-14 is quite accurate.

Isnt the number around 18? What would be their effectiveness in a battle formation? Upto par or below par seeing/comparing their performance in the US Navy?

Nice and were you gunner or Commander? MerkavaIV? I love the IV, that behemoth is armored to the hilt.
 
F-15 has much more trust/weight ratio and less wing loading. So in acceleration, vertical maneuvering, sustained turn it is going to win.
Buddy...We have a former F-15 pilot member on this forum and he flat out said no one want to fight the F-16 in close quarters if they do not have to.

Who is that, what is his username?

U can say that vice versa too: no one want to fight the F-15 in close quarters if they do not have to.

F-16 has its own advantages in dogfight: its much smaller and thus harder to see. It has superb cockpit visibility and excellent roll rate.

Hell no one wants to fight mig-21 if they don't have to:p
 
Unfortunately data from Wiki is not that accurate, though I thought this grading is quite fair.
