I don't think that so many peoples understand what Zeljava is trying to say in his first post.Generaly opinion for lockon is that F-15 have little bit more arcade flight model in compare with flanker's flight model .
I remember the time when i was still learning how to fly and safely land in mig and flanker, it was wery frustrating.:) In time when i could not performe not an single good landing in russian's planes in lomac i decide to try the same with F-15. In my very first meeting with eagle i manage to performe soft landing in some little village on short road?! Yes, F-15 have "fly by wire" system but can that system make noob to land in souch extreme condittions ? I don't think soo...
And what if this thread was about frogfoot vs A-10 dogfight? On one side we have GREAT advanced flight model and on other side , i don't know, arcade flight model maybe???Will you still call Zeljava dogfighter with not enough skill?How much skill you need to enter in close range fight in su-25 and how much in A-10(in lomac)?.
P.S.
I'm reading this thread and i'm very shure now, some pilots playin LockOn to enjoy in flying but some live only for kill, kill and nothing more...That is very sad...(very nice signature Pilotasso).
Sry for my creapy englysh but i think you got the point.:) S!
