Turkey still not take chance with airdefense.

Turkish aircraft fired from Turkish airspace, not Syria’s, according to U.S. officials.

That’s where you’re wrong, supercomputers led to huge improvements in stealth, both in shape and the understanding of diffraction patterns off serrated edges, as did other important advances in composites and the understanding of surface waves, the B-2 has had several updates in signature reduction and materials during their life time. The next advances will be the use of ultra-fast AI to predict the pattern of AESA frequency hops.

Those improvement already you see in F-35. There is no more improvement left from 90s unless you consider the smaller UAVs.

You have to understand this basic fact. as Middleast get poorer. EU and Canada dependence on China will increase a lot.
China alone buys more Germanic cars than Japan/Korea/US combined.

BAE existence since 1980s depend on Middleast and that Middleast increasing looking to China.

Who said can’t be built and what does that have to do with anything being said here?

it cant be built infact this is the reason for its high cost due to managing too many suppliers. All these suppliers countries are getting poorer and jumping on Chinese trade. very undependable for long term projects.

It does not matter where it developed the fact that 50℅ can’t be built in US. Plus it need high production rates to keep costs in check.

Something completely new or a significant upgrade vs currently fielded systems like:

–Most powerful single fighter engine, whcih can also do VTOL
–VLO shaping
–RAM you can walk on without special booties and is actually part of the plane’s structure as opposed to an add-on coating
–Fully fused data (ie not just fusing pre-determined tracks)
–Completely customizable large single display
–Direction LPI datalinks to connect 25 nodes to share raw data (not just tracks)
–Combining IRST, FLIR, & LTP functionality into a single system
–360 IIR based MAWS that does that and also tracks all WVR airborne objects, tell you where a SAM is heading, detects groundfire (AAA, mortars, RPGs, etc), providers self-BDA, and acts as NVGs
–HMDS that displays anything you want from the system, including video
–No HUD
–Software programmable radio suite
–AESA radar-based ESM connected to the rest of the ESM system
–COTS/VM/Middleware/modular based avionics
–Automated maintenance system (ALIS)

50% of F-35 built outside US and where and how it is built is significant risk to its programme.

IMHO if combat radius being equalized
in term of acceleration it probably go like Typhoon > F-15C > F-15E > rafale= F-16 =Mig-29 =gripen > su-27
in term of sustained turn rate at low altitude it probably go like Su-27 > rafale > F-16 = Typhoon =gripen = mig-29 > F-15C > F-15E
in term of sustained turn rate at high altitude it probably go like Typhoon > Su-27 > F-15C> F-15E > Mig-29 > Rafale = F -16 = Gripen
Though if we know their respective lift coefficient it would be easier to compare

Current production MIG-35 has 19km altitude and 2500km/hr top speed. I don’t think EF and F-15C can compete with it. F-15C will need CFT for sustained high speed performance. All those AESA, electronics and EW pods are heavy.
