    • @LondonSteveLee
      @LondonSteveLee ปีที่แล้ว +1

      In clean trim the Eurofighter will indeed beat anything - but what's the point of an fighter with no fuel or missiles? There's plenty of power left in the engines - indeed the engines are lasting so long that Rolls Royce are going to reprogram the fuel delivery to release another staggering 10% thrust in mil' power - making it an even hotter beast - the climb rate to 60,000 feet is already something else - the English Electric Lightening would be proud! Conversely Russian and Chinese engines are already running at breaking point as they are. So with hotter engines and conformal tanks which are coming Eurofighter will stay ahead of the rest - particularly as F-22 is going to gain draggy compute-suite and sensor pods - which is the only viable way of upgrading it.

    It's worth noting that the main reason why the F-22 and F-35 don't have a higher top speed isn't because they can't, but because going faster would heat up the leading edges of the wings/body/control surfaces enough to start melting/damaging the radar-absorbent material. Presumably, this also affects the J-20. This means that the MiG-25 and MiG-31 actually have a major advantage in this kind of mission, as they don't need to worry about going as fast as possible.

      Probably true for F-22 (not to mention the waist at the rear of the fuselage overheats at sustained high speed causing it to unglue itself) so there are a few programmed in restrictions. The F-35 is plain maxed out by engine characteristics - F-35's engine is designed to be responsive at very low altitude, ie to work well in it's F-35C configuration, from the deck, low and slow with a heavy weapons load - it's not optimised for high altitude performance like a pure fighter or interceptor would be. I suspect the F-35 is already running in intake stall at v-max.

This is a big reason why the Su-57 is considered low visibility and not considered "stealth" as even from the FRONT the roundness of the engine nacelles increases the radar cross section quite a bit, as it would never be at the absolute perfect head on angle the whole time, and makes its RCS about the size of a 4th gen fighter when seen from the rear by radar.

    The Top speed of the F22 and the F35 is classified. Although an F22 pilot once stated that it was 2.4. LM has published that it will do in excess of 1.5 without afterburner. That means that between all these airplanes the F22 would easily out perform in an intercept. As for the F35 LM has stated that the top speed is aerodynamically limited to 1.6. I have studied this airplane for years and I can say that it is not limited to 1.6. My educated guess is that it would not only supercruise under the right conditions, with afterburner it would exceed 2.0. It is actually possible that the F35 has the highest top speed out of all these airplanes at very high altitudes.

      F-35C which shares an identical engine with F-35A has to be able to operate off a carrier with heavy fuel and weapons loads and still be responsive to pilot input - that gives you a basic engine configuration that will limit speed and altitude due to the high bypass ratio required to meet those objectives - the engine is also right on its mechanical limit out of the box - very little headroom left (more like the typical approach of the Russians!) - ie there have been more engine failures than are usually tolerated by the US as the basic engine design is at its limit - they knew this! They should have stuck to the original plan to build an all new F-35-specific engine (P&W partnering with RR) rather than continue with the over-stressed P&W F119 (F-22) derivative. This has turned into a false economy as I believe the fragile engine will hamper F-35 for decades to come. Okay, it's probably not as fragile as Russian and (particularly) Chinese engines - but it's not the usual situation for the US or its allies to be in.

    the fuel tanks play a big factor, the j20 doesn't have jetasonable fuel tanks so that would affect its performance while the su 35 doesn't have fuel tanks which makes it a lot less draggy but the downside is that it will run out of fuel faster. the Raptor started last, behind the Eurofighter but they finished so close. if they started head to head, the raptor would've won

      In the game perhaps the Raptor should have won - but the Eurofighter should have buggered off in the first couple of minutes (the climb to altitude) taking advantage of it's much lighter take off weight - these things matter - and by sitting at 37,000 ft the EJ jockey was needlessly bleeding speed and adding drag compared to everyone else running at a more efficient 40K feet.

    Hi cap i have got a question that u may have already ansewred but why don't u ever feature the rafale in ths kind of videos?
    Last time u commented it u said that it was overpowered but since then we have seen the typhoon mod doing things that would never be possible. So i don't really see the difference.
    And i have seen the Até video talking about the rafale mod saying that yes it has a little bit too much trust but that the real rafale "way more agile at low speed" so, is it really that overpowered?
    Respectfully (this is not to be mean it is really just is a question)

    I'd be curious to hear what actual planners think about weapons & fuel configuration for stealth aircraft in a defense/intercept role. Would they ever choose an f-35 with all external spots occupied by air to air missiles? What's the ideal situation? Is it the same decision with AMRAAMS as it is with the AIM-260?
    What about defending a carrier against a huge wave attack? Would it be best to have as many missiles as possible? Sacrificing the stealth to shoot down as many incoming aircraft/missiles as soon as possible, at the possible cost of being downed early yourself?

    • @oscarzheng9902
      @oscarzheng9902 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      They probably won't put external missiles on the f35, it would ruin its purpose. They'll use the f35s for stealth and 4th gen aircraft as the missile trucks. It's usually not worth comprising stealth for extra weapons unless if you have air superiority

    • @Ariccio123
      @Ariccio123 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@oscarzheng9902 yes, lol, I know it does ruin stealth. Just wondering from my armchair how to work out the cost/benefit at different stages of battle.
      At the beginning of response to an incoming massive wave attack at the carrier group, with very few aircraft in the sky only one or two in position to actually fire missiles, is it more important they remain undetected, or shoot down as many incoming aircraft/missiles as possible? No matter what loadout they choose, they're probably only going to be able to launch missiles and then turn away, and once they turn away, they're not gonna get shot down.
      This would all be less of a concern of course if they could stick a whole bunch more missiles in the bay, but no room, ya know?
