Apparently the webmaster has deleted the comparison thread – so here is the data again on 7 aircraft
<br />
We assume 2000 kg of fuel and 2000 kg of stores. In addition<br />
we assume all fuel and stores will be expended leaving 10%<br />
of the original fuel for landing.</p>

==========================================================================
Note:
a. Aspect ratio (A) = wingspan2 / wing area = A glider with a longer wingspan will have a higher aspect ratio, a modern jet fighter has an aspect ratio of between 2-3
b. Turn rates have been calculated for
—–a 60 deg angle of bank = normal bank angle.
—–a 6 g turn = sustained turn rate – since humans cannot take more than 5-6 g continuously.
—–a 9/8 g turn = instaneous turn rate – max design g limit of the respective fighters.
