The F-15 is the ultimate top dog. The king of all fighter jets. Hands down.

If the f-16 has no mirrors how do they look behind them

F 16 sucks. A F 16 cant do nothing accept do few lousy manoeuvres. I think the F 15 would win all battles considering that both the pilots have same experience. As for the rate of climb and trust ratio thats big bull the F 16 doesnt have that much power. And not to mention that at high angle attacks the two engine designe always wins.

The new Block 60 F-16's have a new engine rated at 144KN. The F-15C's have 2 engine's rated at 77KN each but it is also quite a bit heavier. So the thrust/weight ratio is still nearly the same. Not to mention the new Block 60 avionics are all more advanced then whats in the F-15C. So I will still put money on the Block 60.

This is neither high-definition nor something recorded during a real operation Red Flag. It looks like it's taken from a low-budget movie.

The reason why it isnt in high definition is because its on youtube, youtube screws vedios up alot because it compresses them or something, and I bet the reason it seemed like it was a low budget movie is because they told them to act differently in front of the IMAX camera.

I was asking the same question. But my guess is that this was for the F 16 to catch up so they can be a real pray for the F 16 :D other wise so long......and have a nice day.
