AMRAAM, have been integrated in the F- 1. BVR (Beyond Visual Range) engagements, the Viper was born in response to LWF (Light Weight Fighter) program, for a small and agile fighter: the USAF needed a small, cheap, maneuverable airplane to flank the F- 1. Eagle, its air superiority fighter, to face the small Soviet fighters, such as the Mi.
G- 2. 1 in close combat. Indeed, Red and Green Flags, Tiger Meetings, and any other major western exercise feature tons of Vipers (the universal F- 1. F- 1. 6 from different air forces take part to DACT (Dissimilar Air Combat Training) sessions against the most modern fighter jets, sometimes playing the Aggressor role. Therefore, understanding which are the advantages and the disadvantages of F- 1. DACT sessions, based on pilots accounts and most widely known fighter jets characteristics (Rules of Engagement within the training scenario, pilots skills and other factores which may have a significant impact on the outcome of a dogfight will be ignored), can be interesting. According to one of the more experienced of the U.
Air Force Viper’s pilots, Lieutenant Colonel Philipe “Rico” Malebranche, the F- 1. F- 1. 5. The F- 1. Radar Cross Section and, once on the merge, it’s harder to spot. Furthermore, its turn rate is impressive: it does not lose much energy in turns (unlike, for instance, a Mirage 2.
F- 1. 5 in low altitude dogfights. However, the toughest of the fighter jet to face in aerial combat, at least if you are seated in an F- 1.

The F- 1. 6 has a higher thrust- to- weight ratio than the “Super Bug” and this is an advantage Viper drivers can exploit in close air combat: “we can climb 3,0. F- 1. 8, then bunt over to put him in the HUD (Head Up Display) for a gun shot” Malebranche, who has also been an exchange pilot in a U. S. Navy Hornet Squadron, says.
However, while it bleeds energy faster than the F- 1. Rhino” is much better than the Viper if the dogfight gets slow, because the Hornet handle high angles of attack and point the nose at the opponent easier.
And how can the Viper perform against the Eurofighter Typhoon? During more or less a decade of service with the Italian Air Force, the F- 1. Typhoon pilots in WVR engagements. According to the Italian pilots, the F- 1.
F- 2. 00. 0 under 1. But above FL1. 00 the Typhoon becomes quite difficult to beat since its superior aerodynamics give the Eurofighter can out maneuver the Viper at every engagement. Dario Leone for The.
