You are very right to say that BVR is not that dependable. When the BVR radar locks on an enemy plane to fire a missile, the latter's radar warns the pilot. A duly trained pilot will make only a small side sway or vertical maneuvering of his plane, it will fail the incoming missile to hit the target. More than 30 seconds are available for the enemy pilot, which is quite a long time for a speedy jet plane.

Back when it was to be tested first, it failed highly. BVR planes such as phantom were thought to be immune from dogfights, hence they did not have front cannons or machine guns but they faced heavy losses which changed the doctrine of BVR plane behavior. Introduced cannons and Improved maneuverability because even BVR in battle get drawn out to dogfights.

Hello Think Tanks,

I have some question - Why YAK-130 is subsonic? Shouldn't we go for supersonic multirole trainer jet?

because speed is not only matter, features are matter for training.

No, it is not F-15 Eagle, because it is a Boeing plane. McDonnell Douglus produces F-15s.

Look at the top of picture. It is written 'Boeing" in very large letters. So, it is a Boeing plane. If it is so, then it cannot be an Eagle F-15, because Eagle is a McDonnell Plane. Hope, it is clear to you now.

Boeing bought McDonall Douglas a long time ago .... 1997 to be exact

On a real mission some of these hardpoints will be taken by drop tanks

Indeed, the F-15 Strike Eagle is a fine beast

Have all or any of Japan, Israel and SA already bought this plane? Unit cost is about 120 million USD. I have checked the specifications. Its ferry rang is 3,450 miles (3,000 nautical miles) with conformal fuel tanks and three external fuel tanks. The ferry range is a staggering 5,500 km!!!!
