But each carrier should have at least 2 or 3 F-14s. I think it should be in service till
09.

Message Number 5Date Posted: 03 July 2006, 3:23:51 AM The F22 Raptor is probably the best air superiority fighter. It's got the speed, technology and the stealth.

Message Number 7Date Posted: 24 August 2006, 2:16:42 AM Your joking right? The F-4 was a disaster in Vietnam. It was designed around the wrong concepts and wasnt even fitted was a gun until it became obvious that our flashy new missles were sucking. All the speed that it had couldnt give it air-superiority over the rickity little migs that were able to outmanoever it. It was very unforgiving and had terrible handling characteristics according to both the Blue Angels and a former F-4/F-100 pilot that I know. The thing that it was probably best at was getting shot down.
Best fighter today? The argument rages on...
Best fighter of all time? P-51D
Everything that makes it functional makes it beautiful. I call it perfection, I call it passion, I call it human, I call it lust... I call it Su-37.

Message Number 8Date Posted: 09 April 2007, 1:06:08 AM The F-4 wasn't the best fighter we ever made, but it wasn't that bad either. It still had a superior kill record over the North Vietnamese, in spite of the fact that it was deployed in a mission it wasn't designed for all too often. it was never meant to be a pure fighter, rather a fighter bomber type craft. I also remember seeing those things come whipping across the rice paddies there, looked real impressive flying so low that they would kick up a huge rooster tail of water with their speed. That had to be the worst flying tactic ever. A well thrown rock could have knocked one down, they were flying that low!
As far as air superiority? That would have to be the F-22, it's basically an AWAC as well as a fighter.
As far as dogfighting goes these days? Dogfights take place at just subsonic speeds, or in the trans sonic envelope. I would say that we are currently beyond dogfighting with our current technology. But amidst comparable planes it all comes down to pilots, not planes these days.

Message Number 9Date Posted: 23 April 2007, 2:23:37 PM If you are going to use the kill to loss ratio it would be the F-15, no F-15's have ever been shot down in air to air or by SAM however a F-15 has never had to go up against anything that is technologically close to it in avionics, powerplant and weapons system. If you want to make a comparison like this you need to go back to the Korean war or WW2 in which I would bring up the North American P-51D Mustang.

Message Number 10Date Posted: 09 May 2007, 3:58:23 PM The Focke Wulfe FW-190A was the meanest fighter of WWII. Two 7.9mm guns in upper engine cowling, two 20mm in wing root and two 20mm on mid-wing. bombs gallore. I'd be afraid if I saw this coming my way.
As far as modern jets go...dont argue with the F/A-22 Raptor. It is currently the most advanced tactical Air Dominance fighter IN THE WORLD!
