These analyses seem to overlook the impact of MADL and multi-aircraft sensor fusion. The fire on remote capability, meaning you have a fix on a target that you haven't even detected yourself, plays out huge in stuff I've seen, and it seems believable.
- jasonwatkinspdx 13y agoUnfortunately that's not an advantage unique to Blue side in this analysis. The Su's have a networked co-operative radar as well. There are a few public lectures you can watch from the designers if you like. Su in general favors continuous upgrades of existing inventory so customers don't have to wait for production of a new jet to field it either. They're quite confident in their electronics gear, even to the point of claiming purely passive detection of the F-22 at 50km. Comparing feature bullet points is a pointless exercise. Neither of us being an actual expert on this stuff (I assume), it's most reasonable to take the pros at their word. Doubly so when they're being critical rather than cheer-leading.
