    FA50 unironically. It offers 80% capability of Raptor for a fraction the price. It hasn't been the hottest topic among global MIC for no reason.

        Impressive.

        With this most recent achievement, fate has, in a single stroke, marked the decline of the west and spelled a new era of wondrous prosperity and peaceful global dominance for the Korean micropenis, which promises to firmly stand in sharp contrast to the historically bloody ascent of western powers and the cruel subjugation it brought to the humbler nations of the world. The blessings of Korean plasma stealth technology, undetectable hypersonic combat vehicles, quantum direct-current electricity, neutrino submarine detectors, gamma titanium mono crystal turbines, quantum aircraft carriers, unmanned autonomous A.I. tanks, near-space ballistic air-to-air missiles, super light tanks, +2km range airburst rifles, quantum enhanced railguns, 5G Remote Surgery, magnetized plasma cannons, and quantum superalloy drones will be the instruments with which South Korea affirms its noble stewardship of 21st century world politics and offers the non-western world a different option; an humanist alternative to the depredations of Western leadership and the opportunity for a more equitable and dignified multilateralism.

        We're talking about fighter jets, not trainers.

      You will never be a real fighter. You have no range, you have no speed, you have no payload. You are a jet trainer twisted by hackneyed engineering and marketing into a crude mockery of F-16's perfection.
      All the "procurement" you get is politically driven and half-hearted. Behind your back your operators mock you. Your "fighter" wings are disgusted and ashamed of you, your "allies" laugh at your ghoulish low performance behind closed doors.
      Pilots are utterly repulsed by you. Studying 100 years of air combat tactics evolution allows pilots to sniff out turkeys with incredible efficiency. Even trainer jets that are "combat capable" look uncanny and unnatural to a fighter pilot. Your airframe is a dead giveaway. And even if you manage to take off laden with a drop tank, a targeting pod, 2 AIM-9's and 2 Mk 82's, you’ll have to turn tail and RTB before doing anything because of your puny combat radius.
      You will never get kills. Your pilots wrench out a fake smile every single morning and tell themselves they're valuable assets in a sensible, agile hi-lo mix, but deep inside they feel the depression creeping up like a weed, ready to crush them under the unbearable weight.
      Eventually the battlefield will be too much to bear - you’ll get in the air, point your nose up and try to lob an AMRAAM in the general direction of the bandits but an enemy missile will plunge you into the cold abyss before your pilot can say fox 3. The CSAR will find the pilot who will be heartbroken but relieved that they no longer have to fly such a shameful and disappointing machine. They’ll put the remaining airframes in museums with plaques reading "FA-50 advanced jet trainer," and every passerby for the rest of eternity will know a non-combat plane is preserved there. Your livery will fade and be covered with dust, and all that will remain of your legacy is a static exhibit that is unmistakably a trainer aircraft.
      This is your fate. This is what KAI chose. There is no turning back.

      This.

      The MIC marketplace speaks for itself, FA50 is usually selected over every other fighter jet when the F35 is not available for purchase. Countries active in procurement almost always picks the FA50 over the F15s and F16s let alone planes like the rafale and typhoons

    Good example of this is Royal Malaysian Air Force Sukhoi SU-30MKM which are known as South East Asia most Advanced and Heavy Flanker. SU-30MKM avionics and its weapons system were mixed between Western Block & Eastern Block. Malaysian SU-30MKM are the only Sukhoi SU-30 series that capable of using Sidewinder, Paveway and JDAM. Currently RMAF is able do do SEAD with Su-30MKM + Kh-31P. SU-30MKM "Growlerski" is also the first ECM/EW Sukhoi platform designed and build outside Russia.A multi-role platform with SAP-518 ECM pod and mix of SAP-14 jamming pod is considered similar to the United States ALQ-99 jamming system installed on the EA-6B Prowler and EA-18G Growler. Funny thing is the Russian are following Malaysian example that successfully integrated Russian-Western technology into their SU-30MKM.

    Coupled with IRST which allows it to safely detect target fr relative safety. Coupled wiv R-77/RVV-AE BVRAAM (which is now in RMAF inventory), the Malaysian Sukhoi still hav a fighting chance using the right fighting skills, tactics, weapons, sensors and airmanship against F-22/F-35. According to unofficial source , the RMAF Sukhoi SU-30MKM were be able to detect and locked into USAF Lockheed Martin F-22A Raptor in stealth mode during Cope Taufan 2014 joined USAF & RMAF exercises. RMAF Sukhoi SU-30MKM also perfect in out maneuvering incoming enemy aircraft with the help of thrust vectoring control system or TVC. the actual ability of the Su-30MKM has been kept secret so far.

      It's basically su-30mki with Saab maws and french targeting pods. Nothing impressive.

    F-15EX is a missile/bomb bus. It's not an air superiority fighter like the F-15C was.
    F-15E crews note that because of all the extra bomb racks, CFTs and additional weight it suffers significant performance drop compared to F-15C. F-15EX is even dragger than the older F-15E due to even more pylons and blisters for sensors.
    Turn rate (both instantaneous and sustained) and acceleration are considered worse than F-35A where F-15C pilots consider the Eagle superior in those regards.

    4/5 fighter "generation" pigeonholing is bullshit.

    eurofighter is a generation ahead of f-15ex in aerodynamics, and half a generation behind in avionics.
