Could we finally see an F-15C v Su-27SM showdown?

 

"Baltic Sea Incident 2014" seems like an interesting scenario for SF2 at the minimum.

I really doubt the US risking a confrontation with Russia.

If North Korea is worth Raptors, Russia deserves more than Eagles, but maybe they don´t want to stir things up more. With Eagles, it is a reinforcement of the current mission, Raptors are a different thing. Either way, i don´t know how would they fare against S-400s in any kind of incident

The Eagles just hopped over from UK.

 

No one said anything about the USAF being the ones to do something stupid.

per non dire che anche la portaerei della US NAVY USS Bush è attraccata al porto di Atene, come al solito gli US farannoil loro gioco delle parti.

Non si puo andare avanti così , augurandoci che non succeda nulla

Raptors in NK is ok, cause they don`t have surveilance electronics or systems to analyse the Raptors RCS or Radar emitation.

 

deploying already known systems next to an "enemy" that is very well equiped it the best possible way t oreact.

 

remember the Su-30`s from India? They never turned their radar on during red flag, same with the french guys, they scanned the hell out of this operation.

The US will be withdrawing a large number of our forces from the A-stan and we actually use some routes through Russia, so all our posturing is just empty for show to the rest of the world. Russia is in no position to do anything stupid to jeopardize their fragile economy.

The Eagle can match any Russian Fighter in service today. Still lots of power and bether armament and avionics.

More Eagles at the Baltics is only a little bit rathling with the sabre. No one with brain in the head will risk a war in europe, not for the Crimea which historicaly seen belongs to Russia. The politicians of both side will play a little bit "wild dog" for a while and in 2 or 3 weeks the game is over. Then the people of the Crimea will have voted for their independance from Ukraine and will be part of mother Russia again. Then a political solution will come. The Ukraine will accept that the Crimea is now russian again and will become a benefit from west, who will give some billions of Euros for economical recovery of Ukraine and Russia will sell oil and gas again for the 30% margin. Nothing harmed, only the ukrainian proud.

Much better than as to rise a new cold war with sanctions and contersanctions. Alone in Germany more than 300.000 jobs are closely related with export to Russia. German investments in Russia are around 150 billion Euro. No way, that Chancellor Merkel will risk this. Thatswhy she allows the polish, lithuanian, french etc politicians o bark out for a while. And when she believe that it is enough, then she will stop it.

It's only 6 F-15s. It's really not much.

As long as Central Europe, specially Germany wich has so much weight on the Union, is so dependent on Gazprom, i don´t think Europe is going to do anything against the Russians.
