EricJ Posted February 13, 2011 Posted February 13, 2011 Decided to try it from the Red perspective using the Su-35... The thing to remember since my opponent was a clean F/A-18F was that relatively that I was a lot heavier and I think he got some hits on me though I definitely saw him fire at me at least three times so who knows... Anyways a clean Super Hornet will get around you while you try and use burner (highly recommended) quite a bit until you kill the bastich. But I managed to get a good hit with him with an AA-11 clipping him good. Must be warhead weight is lower because i hit him again a couple times and he still kept on trucking so I had to shoot him down with an Alamo-C (even though the first one missed). Maybe it'd be a good idea to make a DACT topic and sticky it? Therefore we can get better ideas on how to work the knife fight with various aircraft?
+Coupi Posted February 13, 2011 Posted February 13, 2011 (edited) Hi EricJ, Very dangerous Super Flanker!!! Poor Super... Hornet! Coupi. Edited February 13, 2011 by Coupi
EricJ Posted February 13, 2011 Posted February 13, 2011 Well the thing is in a BVR fight I probably would have already been shot down so I'm not saying the Super Hornet isn't a touigh opponent is just you have to think more when you gotta deal with all that weight

FastCargo Posted February 13, 2011 Posted February 13, 2011 Republic Thunderwarrior F.1A - No.111 'Treble One' Squadron, RAF Fighter Command, 1964 You know, if you didn't know a lot about military aircraft, especially history, you wouldn't know what a lot of aircraft were designed to do by just seeing a clean (no ordinance) picture of it. F-4, British Lighting, Harrier, F-15, B-52, etc. Not so with the F-103 (and aircraft like the Concorde, U-2, etc). You look at it and instantly know it was designed to go really fast in a straight line.... FC
