Jet/fighter thread. Let's talk about fighters and related games and anime. YF-23 is best bird. Fight me.

Hangar queen pls go
Anyone seen this? Is it any good.
Not a jet, but still GOAT fighter design.
>>12393607
OVA is better.
The best fighter
>>12393533
"Why"
>>12393593
Any combat aircraft would become a hangar queen after a long period without significant refit or rebuild. Even more so for a carrier plane.
Of course maintenance would get harder after more than 20 years of carrier ops.

>>12393726
Those are fictional versions with canards.
>>12393769
Extremely stupid and pointless canards, to go with the equally pointless and stupid LERXes on the vertical tails. My question was intended more along the lines of "who thought that was a good idea?"
>>12393775

It's an arcade flight game, man. Cool your jets.

There's nothing wrong with adding fictional or conceptual aircraft to a game, but at least make them somewhat believable. And there are plenty of actual concepts they could've used instead, like FB-22 or NATF.

Stick to Blazing Angels
>>12394094
Blazing Angels 3 when?
>>12394119
Dunno, probably never.
BTW are there any good simulators outside of Il-2? I don't want to pay for overpriced Cliffs of Dover and Battle for Stalingrad.
>>12394094
Stick to your shitty arcade game where planes are balanced via "secret russian dokuments ))))) found in long-lost Soviet bunkers )))))))", I'll stick with DCS and IL-2.
Holy shit, I mean seriously, I can't believe you're trying to prove how elite you are by comparing two arcade games. Blazing Angels was mediocre, but at least it never pretended to be a "sim" with any historical credibility.
>>12394125
>game where planes are balanced via
Also, the Battle Rating system.
>Changing the BR, which affects the matchmaking of the plane, based on how well the players are doing on that particular plane
>>12394125
>secret russian documents
>implying that only soviets are OP
I'm not trying to prove that I'm somehow elite. I want to say that WT is fun to play. Not in arcade mod, it's boring for me.
And about "secret documents" - personally I think that soviets are ok. Unlike brits and (maybe) americans. Germans are overtierd.
>>12394139
Don't forget
>late-war German props fight against post-war American and Russian jets
>>12394139
>Also, the Battle Rating system.
Yes, that's stupid.
>>12394143
>N1K2 against allied jets
>>12394140
I don't think you understand. On more than one occasion, Gaijin's rationale for certain balancing changes is literally "secret documents" that they are totally legitimately not allowed to share with the public because they're classified, not because they're full of shit.
>>12394153
As I said, balancing system sucks, nobody denies it (first 3 tiers of soviets and other allies since tier 2 are quite comfy to play because of it).

So why couldn't have one of these canards? Because you don't like them? Stay mad
>>12393607
OVA is one of the few good non-Miyazaki aviation anime ever produced.
Faggots, do you even death by a thousand cuts?
>Mk IIB has 12 machine guns
>>12394207
>12 piss-shooters
I'd stick to Bf109E.
>>12393533
>>12394178
Because all those canards are doing is adding drag and increasing RCS.
Canards are fine if they're part of the aircraft's original design, but bolting a pair onto an existing aircraft is seldom the best solution. Even the Russians realized this with their newer Flanker models.
>>12394207
Thousand cuts indeed, because you'll run out of ammo before doing any significant damage, statistically.
>>12393938
Nah I'm just trolling you.

I'm getting Ace Combat 6 as my first Ace game. Did I fuck up?
>>12397163
>not playing each and every game in production order
Yes.
You seriously fucked up.
>>12397238
But I don't have a playstation
>>12397259
Then you double plus fucked up.
And don't even try to emulate the PS2 games, you fuckup.
>>12397290
I never said anything about trying to do that.
Why do people laugh at the Falcon being my planefu? She does her best at everything
>>12397597
XL best Falcon.
>>12397163
6 is alright and fun but you need to get a PS2 and play the Holy Trinity if you want to get into Ace Combat proper.
>>12397800
>using Holy trinity unironically
Do not listen to these people, they are ace combat fans in name only.
>>12397814
Alright then just play whatever.
Air Combat and AC2 are easy enough to get because they're PSX, great games. X and X2 are ok but PSP. 3 is japan only at this point (unless you want the gimped version). The AC2 remake on the 3ds is also good I heard.
Don't touch Assault Horizon.
That covers most of them.
>>12397890
Doing anything but playing everything in production order is cancerous behavior.Assault Horizon was a better dumb game than AC6.

Yeah right. At least 6 feels and plays like AC despite the annoying girl and the lack of aircraft.

I was seriously hoping the AC2 remake was an indicator AC3 might also get a remake and we'd finally get a good version of it.
But I guess they're dumping everything into the F2P game now.
>>12394092
Okay, I love the cobra, but the P-38 is sex on wings.
Has there ever even been an actual dogfight between modern fighter planes?
>>12404555
You mean current generation planes like the F-22? No.
In the Gulf War, there were several F-15 vs. MiG-29 dogfights.
>>12404649
Well, that's better than I thought. Off the top of my head I thought the last actual dogfights had been back in WW2.
>>12404657
No way. Korea and Vietnam also saw plenty of air-to-air action.
>>12393533
