How do you think it handles? Did you think it was going to do worse or better?
-
Really glad you made this video, that gun sight needs a major rework for A2A. Great flying!
-
Ever since people started getting early access to the f15e I have been looking to see some bfm other than the gunsight I’m loving what I see
-
Good vid! The internet is replete with former F-15E aircrew discussing the Strike Eagle's paltry sustained turn performance, especially with the conformal tanks on. I recall one vid of a former SE pilot saying the jet gives you "one good turn" before she's out of speed. This tracks with the flight model in the game.
-
I remeber back in 1998 people objected the flight model in Jane's F-15 as being too twitchy in pitch axis. Seems like it's the case here too. I guess it's the real characteristic of the Mudhen. Seems logical though as the F-15 doesn't have full-blown FBW (only SAS) similarly to the Tomcat, where you can break the plane easily when you pull too much on the stick at high speed. Also that gun predictor sight indeed seems broken. I though that F-16 got you around 9:00, great snapshot btw.
-
Our RazBam crew chiefs need to sight the gun, because that is awful.
-
Finally someone did it, great video man 👌🏼
-
9:00 thats the best kill ive seen for quite a while. Well bloody done!
-
I lol'ed at the VIper kill. Well done
-
I think you can change the gun rate from high to low…. At least that’s what I remember from Jane’s F-15.
-
Heads Up usually if nothing is loaded on the center pylon it's not installed. If they have to start the engines in air, they would need to jettison the center pylon.
-
So basically, if the pilot knows the aircraft, keeps his cool, has a bit of luck and forces an opportunity, it can dogfight pretty good.
-
man Really one circled a hornet 💀
-
Good energy management, good flying. 'Feels' like engines do make difference compared to Janes F-15E FM, at least when recovering from 30 deg or more AoA. Even with early FM, feels promising.
-
did learn a few fighting tips from this vid tho..thanks to ur commentary
-
The brrrrttttt on that Vulcan sounds perfect.
-
Good kill on the Viper. I really thought he had you:)
-
Pre ordered last night and I can’t wait to fly it! Just a question of when..
-
Your patience is admirable, i would've tossed my laptop out my window
-
the over g boop-beep would drive me crazy after a while
