[QUOTE="rhodesbe, post: 2415937, member: 2415"] I know what you're saying, but I think you'd enjoy the findings. I'm trying to find a public link... One of the biggest findings of the simulation is the F-15s are far better equipped for an air superiority role than even 'Gen 5' fighters. They are designed to fly a defensive fight, even when being the aggressor. Because of the way they approach engagement, enemies are forced 'to fight their way' or get their ass kicked even earlier. The T-50 looks like it has muscle, but it has really big limitations. The powerplants are weak, and this is verified by 3rd party observation. The avionics are taken from a concept Sukhoi bomb-truck that was never built, so even the layout of the cockpit needs lots of work. Granted, there are always future variants that could change these things, but as a 'Gen 5' fighter, the T-50 isn't even as sharp as the Gen 4 F-15. [/QUOTE]
