[@yono367]

using a PL-5 to bomb bases is peak war thunder

[@RussianRainbow]

I've suggested for the Chinese jets that should have the PL-5C to receive them, pretty much all of their current jets mounting PL-5B are at a BR where all-aspect IR is almost a necessity at this point and it would be a welcome buff to these aircraft.

[@kingghidorah8106]

the J7E is fine as it is, it's flight performance is enough for 11.0, if not probably _a little overkill_ . It's on the same train as the F-16A block 10, it's cracked for 12.0 but the armament is lackluster. AIM9Ls are insane but they're slow and won't reach the target on time if you're around a furball.

[@snooproach8500]

@@kingghidorah8106yeah, the j7e is amazing at 11.0. The only problem is br compression. Most of the games I’ve played in this plane recently have been full uptiers. Same thing happens with the Ariete, although the Ariete can still wipe a lobby at 10.3 as long as you avoid all aspects.

[@kingghidorah8106]

[@batlax18]

Congrats on 100k! was there for the stream but never actually said anything Question: Do you thing F16s will still be viable against F15s and su27s?

[@thepilotbob5624]

F16 might be able to beat f15 not sure about su27

[@batlax18]

@@thepilotbob5624 I assume that an F16 could pull it off against an F15 if he air broke before the merge, got to about 500mph and full elevatored around to get one shot, but if he misses it’s back to the hangar cuz an F15 will run circles at that point

[@appa609]

An F-15 has a much better radar and a lot more missiles. It's faster and climbs better and it uses that ability to control the geometry of the BVR engagement. If you get to the merge, it turns better in the 1-circle. All those are also true of the Su-27 except it's a bit less bvr oriented and is *much* better in the 1-circle.

[@RedVRCC]

Against F-15 maybe. F-15 would most likely have 9M and 120A. People will probably load it up to the max with missiles, weighing it down and allowing the F-16 to win in a dogfight. In BVR, when AMRAAMs are added, I feel like the 16C would probably get them too. Against Su-27, dogfights wouldn't be advisable due to the Su-27's thrust vectoring. In BVR it would be a pretty even matchup regardless of whether the 27 gets R-27s or R-77s. The 9M is still better than R-73 so short range missile jousts would still favor the F-16.

[@Miszorov]

Yup, it should outpull and sustain comfortably against early F-15s at speeds under +/-800kph. Su-27 is in the same boat but should pull a little bit more than F-15 with similar fuel loads but will fall out of the sky earlier than an F-15, prolly something similar to like MiG-29A before nerfs

What would you say is your philosophy of life? Do you have any hobby? How many languages do you speak? Have you tried psicodelics? How old are you?

[@ThePolish2107]

Man, I've been playing a bunch with the JA37C, and im just astounded by how bad that guy was in that last clip. I've gone toe to toe with F-16As in the Viggen and won a decent amount (the ones I lost were most often because of an F-4S slinging a sparrow at me). The best advice I can give to anyone flying the Viggen is don't go below 700 km/h. Below that speed you loose so much thrust that it's really hard to make up any lost energy. The lack of tracers is a bit annoying but with the radar gunsight its really a non issue, and the radar itself is very usable.

I am not sure if you or anyone would be reading this comment. But I am curious to know how do you look around or look back and manuveure the aircraft at the same time? I mean I play with keyboard and mouse. So either I can use mouse to manuveure the aircraft or press C and use mouse movement to look around to check enemy positioning. Like I want the aircraft to go straight and move to dodge gunshots from enemies behind me or around me but my current key binding doesn't allow me to do both at the same time. Any tips for this?
