Or the nerds around here can quit nitpicking and accept that plus or minus a few percent is close enough.,,-Yes, the fact of the matter is that it’s possible here we get not plus or minus a few percent, but a completely different plane in terms of sensations and application. Well, if the percentage difference seems to be with f-15, then let's compare it with a high-altitude interceptor.
Look, there are Mig-31 high-altitude interceptors. It has a thrust-weight ratio with a maximum take-off mass of 0.66, a climb rate of 160 m / s to 11 km, and after supersonic speed of 250 m / s. The mirage has a thrust-to-weight ratio with a maximum take-off weight of 0.57, rate of climb of 284 m / s. The Mig-31 has a cruising speed, subsonic 950 km / h, supersonic
2500 km / h, maximum 3400. The mirage has a cruising of 885 km / h, maximum 2500 km / h. Mig-31 at 2500km / h can fly 720 km, and how much can a mirage fly 2000 km / h? From the reviews of battles in Satal, it can be seen that the mirage can climb 12 km, accelerate in 4-5 minutes from 860 km / h to 2000 km / h and fly like this for 10-12 minutes. What is it that he will fly at 2000 km / h somewhere around 400 km.
Is such a good engine and aerodynamics of a mirage that allows it to fly like that? If so then take off my hat to the creators of this aircraft)
but usually a mirage fight looks like this, a climb of 12 km takes 3-4 minutes, acceleration from 860 km / h to 2000 km / h in 4-5 minutes, a fight at a speed of 2000 km / h 7 minutes, a fight at low altitudes 5 minutes, and return home.
On MiG-29 for example can be achieve with 950km/with until 2000km/untangle for 3 minutes and fly so 4 minutes, and all fuels 0. On f-15,16,18 not know not probyval. Can from whom there is data.according to the fuel consumption depending on the height and speed of the Mirage 2000?
