wow nice photo, it’s really amazing shot there.
Well like that one guy said in the Block III super hornet upgrade. The Super or Raptor or T-50 won’t get a chance in the A2A combat mainly because there’s no more Air Superiority fighting in the air. Today it’s mainly ground attack targeting. The Super is both popular in its A2A and A2G category. Super is a little more popular in A2A due to it’s amazing slow speed dogfighting capabilities and its maneuvering ability. There for i don’t like the Super as a bomber. But anyway A2A combat won’t be resurrected in the next 20-30 years. If i guess
it’s basically true that the air superiority planes today won’t get a chance in air to air combat and including the super hornet. super hornets a great air superiority fighter but it’s actually called in reality… a Multi-role aircraft. is called that beacuse there both multi-capable in the 2 main roles. i see your point there but.
but in intercepting role the super hornet doesn’t excel in that role. it’s mach 1.8 and it can’t really intercept but it doesn’t look like a good intercepter but its still a fast plane. growler what people say doesn’t mean it’s true. there judging or critizing it. no matter what you hear.. it’s a hoax or it can be true… but the super hornet is a superior platform and it’s a good air to air craft/ bomber but i like the viper and i like the super so i give some love to the super.
IAF SU-30MKI

Fair enough. There’s nothing wrong with discussing other aircraft as long as the aircraft the thread is originally about is largely orientated. The only reason Typhoon was brought up was because it was featured in the article Y-20 Bacon showed you. Same for the Pakistan thread, someone else brought it up before I did, wasn’t me.
id like a eurofighter to kick a tomcats *** or another plane to kick the tomcats *** hehe an f-16 can really defeat a tomcat.
interesting topic, i thought it would happen around june or july but they moved it to august and september? hmmm dont know about that. id still choose the epe engines, irst, cft’s and 5th gen cockpit on the super hornet.
So is 9X … 21-23 miles radius a.k.a about 35-40km
MICA is a replacement for both Super 530 (interception) and Magic II (dogfight). There are two MICA variants; MICA RF has an active radar homing seeker and MICA IR has an imaging infra-red homing seeker. Max missile range quotes by 1/2 Cigognes Air Defense Squadron is 80km. Mica efficiency radius is sometimes given as about 55 km for the RF variant, and 13km for the IR variant. Besides on Rafale, it is used also on Mirage 2000 e.g ROCAF (960 missiles) and IAF (490 missiles). But also Greece, UAE, Oman and Quatar.

its a French missile so for real does the Gripen and euro use it? isn’t the ASRAAM related to the mica missile? i think so
ASRAAM.
