WARFIGHTER989 0 Posted December 1, 2007 It would enhance gameplay. Just imagine an F22 taking out an SU33 as it flew by about to destroy a US marine convoy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
-Total- 0 Posted December 2, 2007 Imagine being on the other team and not having anything that could combat it. Why create an imablance as great as that? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Inkompetent 0 Posted December 2, 2007 Yeah, add F22s that are barely in service at all now. I don't think that they'll have enough to put them into widespread service by 2010 either. F-16s or F-18s works though, but I still wonder why people want air superiority fighters at maps that are so small that you reach over the whole map with a standard medium range AMRAAM air-to-air missile, and the russian missiles carried by MiG-29s and other modern aircraft have even greater range than the AMRAAM. Oh, and another thing. We'd need SA-6 and SA-10 batteries and Patriots to counter the aircraft from the ground, since a Shilka, Tunguska or Vulcan sure can't hit them at high altitudes. And take an SA-10... It can easily engage on altitudes from 100m to 10000m and have a 90km range. That means you *can't* do any air superiority fighting since not a sane fighter pilot in the world would want to dogfight at below 100m altitude in a modern fighter. Actually, preferred altitude to *start* air-to-air fighting at is at about 8-10km. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You're saying that in almost every vehicle thread! How about you go play Raven Shield? As for me, I'd say Air superiority fighters aren't really needed in ArmAII. There just isn't much airspace to be fought for, CAS planes can be outfitted with AA's too just in case of an enemy aircraft. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
