SU-30MKI or F-15K? - Page 2

I would never trust the US at the very crucial moment like in war or so. Why should we, Pakistan is their major-non-nato ally.........despite Pako intelligence having 75% hand in the 9-11 attacks.

Waa, waa, waa. I guess you guys never heard of "MiG diplomacy".

Imo, the Flanker has the edge in aerodynamics, the Eagle has it over the Flankers in everything else.

If I had to choose which one to go to war in, it would be the one with the 104-0 record...

If you could prove that, we would have bombed the sh*t out of them.

But you can't, it's just more Indo-Pak kiddie-WAB/Internet warrior mudslinging...

If I were a small nation, I'd go for Gripen. Newer, simpler, cheaper to run and maintain. Good enough for self defense. F-15K/SG are strike fighters which just happen to excel at air combat. A small nation doesn't normally have a need for long range strike fighters.

I wonder why Singapore needs F-15SG, the Cadillac of strike fighters.

with good training and decent support appratus, Su30 will blow smitherines out of the any falcon series. TRAINING DOES GOOD!

But that doesn't answer the question of why Singapore would need a top notch long range strike fighter for such a small nation.

LOL.

An F-16C/52 is NO slouch at ANYTHING.

And you put AIM9X on any F-16 and i would NEVER close to a WVR fight with it...ever.

As far as BVR, the F-16E/F have superior radar and weaponry than the SU, with a much smaller RCS and visual footprint.

Nah...add AIM9X and AMRAAM to the mix, and the SU30 loses ALL of it's magic.

I doubt it. No one wants to piss off China in the Taiwan affairs, with the exception of maybe the US. Besides, it's a long way from Singapore to Taiwan.

I don't there will be a plane with that kind of record anytime soon. Hopefully we won't have to test the F-22 against anyone to try and beat it.
