Honestly, seeing how the F-15 in War Thunder plays. The best method I have seen is to side climb to the sky and come in from the rear, or get on top where hardly anyone is looking, setting yourself up for a great advantage to finish unsuspecting players with guns or missiles, and with the plane having the insane T2W ratio, makes it perfect to regain altitude really quickly with rather well energy retention. AIM-7Ms aren't great from being shot 500-1.00km in altitude from the ground, instead, try sitting around 3500km-8000km for best results/effectiveness. Also, I would like to add that the Aim-7Ms got terrible launch-flight patterns, I recommend aiming your jet up into a climb and launching your missile since the Aim-7s tend to "drop", doing this will help give the missile time for course adjustment once fired! Since I learned this trick, I haven't missed a missile that I was confident in launching. Overall, the F-16 and F-15 are on par in terms of aerial combat, with the F-15 taking an edge but marginally. It's still a new plane and people are just beginning to learn its quirks, and given time, I am sure the F-15 will be more liked by the general public of high tier games. :)

@@verzache-R-73 is far better than the sidewinder, assuming optimal conditions for each. Peak hit rate for R-73 is gonna be roughly 80% if used perfectly while the AIM-9M has a hit rate more like 40-60% under optimal conditions. Before the proxy fuse nerf on sidewinders there was an argument for either being better, but with the nerf, the best IR missile is undoubtedly the R-73.

what literally 99% of players seem to not get is that although the 27ER is amazing, it still is only as good as the radar that guides it in. It's lethal on the MiG-29 and 141, because they have decent to good radars. It's really mid on the Su-27, because the radar on it is absolute dog$hid. On the other hand, NATO countries have access to the 9M which is leagues above the R-73 when used to orbital strike.

Some F15A's that underwent the MSIP 1 program indeed only got flares, as the MSIP 1 program was canceled due to cost overruns, with most all F15A's built before 1977 being cut from the retrofitment list entirely for incompatibility issues. To my knowledge no single F15A airframe ever received all of the MSIP upgrades either, with the few that were accepted into the program being given any upgrade that individual airframe was compatible with. Chances are Gaijin will save these upgrades for the F15C (aka MSIP 2) with AMRAAM capability and possibly even the APG-63(V3) and the JMHCS HMD upgrades from 2007.

The aim7m feels just so weak. I carry only one in the F-15 in the odd chance I need it, but otherwise it's just dead weight. What surprised me was how this seems to only affect the aim7m and not other variants of the missile. Yesterday I was playing with FGR2 and Tornado F3, with skyflash DF and super temps respectively, and they hit their mark every single time even at low alt. Yet the aim7m goes stupid even against bots sometimes. Now that I think about it, maybe the 7m just doesn't pull enough for how fast it goes and that's why the slower super temps are able to turn tighter and hit way more reliably.

Every single one I throw just blows up or my green square flickers away. To add insult to the American iconic fighter the F-15 can't even hold on to it's wings they are made of paper! I have 5 years in air rb. The F-15's long range missile capabilities are so horrible that I just take sidewinders. Third, It's sad that Anton Yudintsev (CEO of wt) has allowed such poor performance to be reflected by such a prestigious combat winning aircraft in real life. It's so obvious that this is a Russian owned game from Moscow originally and many current employees are Russian though different parts of developers are now based in Hungary, Germany, and Cyprus. It's complete BULL S***. The only thing I agree about the F-15 in the game is its flight performance and I am appreciative that gaijin did an okay job of the graphics model visually for the F-15. At least I have a cool jet (the F-15) to look at before the "chosen plane" through favoritism (Su-27) shoots everything down with its 10 best missiles in the game. Great time gaijin, really nailed it sHoWiNg OfF yOuR BiAsEd direction of development for what jet you favor the most.
