@@ntal5859 The Phoenix needed a long range to hit the Soviet Naval Aviation bombers before they could launch their cruise missiles at the carrier. Fighters were not a threat to the carrier due to their range and limited payload during it's design and initial production (1966). The F-14 was designed around the needs of the Phoenix it carried as a fleet air defense fighter. The Mig-25 was introduced to the Soviet Air Force in 1970. Four years after the Phoenix began production.

F-15EX was only created to fill the USAF quota because F-35 production was behind schedule. Its massive RCS makes it more of a cruse missile truck than anything else.

The tomcat is cool but it has problems though! the reason why the US has to retire the tomcats was first of all their maintenance costs. Second of all they were a strictly air superiority fighter when used on carriers. And surrounding it would have to be the A7 and A6 strike fighters, the e-2 hawk eye, and the ea6b prowlers to accompany it, but with the f-18s, it is multirole aircraft and now the navy has also got the ea18g which can further enhance the carrier's capability with without having to carry so many different plane types.

The Tomcat is my all time favorite fighter. It even looks like it means business.

It comes down to a pilot is a major factor in an air to air dogfight. Most good pilots can affect the outcome of their combats for a rather large percentage. But in a massive dogfight, this can drop off severely in a bad situation.

Oops, try this for first sentence. It comes down to the pilot, who is a major factor in any dogfight.

@@paulwollenzein-zn1lhnot entirely true. 1 it’s a combination of the pilots training and the tech and 2 dogfighting doesn’t really happen anymore with the US at least not since Vietnam supposedly. Modern missiles and rockets just put range guns and the gap is growing.

The F-14 hasn't been upgraded. The J-20 is a 5th gen aircraft. Whether it's as good as this sim is something we don't really know.

Why is there string around the master control panel? I don't remember seeing that there before. What purpose does it serve?
