revalence Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 Yes... this has been a largely controversial subject for many of us aviation philosophers... So, its good time that we all pitch in our own opinions... My question to anyone is... WHAT FIGHTER, in your opinion, is the most effective in A2A combat, not counting Pilot skills. Include reasons, whatnot, advantages they hold... etc. And to narrow the category a tad bit, let's stick with Generation 4.5 and below. Thanks everyone! -Andrew(Revalence) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aaron886 Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 Bad conversation to start. It's like any other... it'll just be a bunch of nationalistic BS and about 80% longwinded spew. :D 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

onehitxzibit Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 More than one million confirmed kills annually....... But also lot's of losses. Their survivability is pretty low when I engage them with my hand. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hog_driver111th Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 When you consider their "pilot training" rate, compared to losses, I'd say their numbers are pretty good.
