Iran can buy good airplanes but in the end they'll be flown by dumb Arabs.

Am I the only one who detects irony in that statement?

There is one major thing we are over looking. in the US arsenal are two Ground to Air missiles. The Stinger ( and not the Pu$$y version in BF2 ) and the Exorcet II.  properly deployed. J-10 have NO chance against these missiles..

Rofl you guys dont have 500 of them set up though. In the Us you might have shit loads but in Iraq. Nope.

And please no cocky US assholes saying America rules all.

Euro fighter was made to cope with the j-10, to match speed and maneuverability. I THINK !

The Typhoon is way more manuverable than the J-10. Designed specifically to be less aerodynamic so there is less resistance when turning. The problems caused by the lack of aerodynamics are balanced out by computer control systems.

The F-35/JSF is rubbish from a high tech air to air combat perspective. Can't even supercruise (although the F-22 and the Typhoon are the only fighters that can).

The Typhoon and the F-22 are the top fighters in the world and will be for some time. The F-22s big advantage over the Typhoon is that it has a much smaller radar profile, but no one knows exactly how much smaller because the exact figures for both planes are classified. Because of this extra stealth capability the Raptor is much more expensive than the Typhoon, the UK purchased 232 Typhoons for $51 million per unit, the US purchased 183 F-22s at a cost of $361 million per unit. Since there is little to separate the two fighters in terms of performance (the F-22 just has the edge) I know which one I'd pick.

I don't think the US need to worry too much about 500 J-10s. It's the upcoming J-XXs they need to watch out for. They won't be as good either. But you've got to remember the US only have 183 F-22s and no plans to buy more because they're so damn expensive.

Idk...I think that we can beat the J-10 irl. The F22 is the ultimate in air superiority.

i have to agree with you there it don't matter how good the jet is, or the pilot, if you can't see your enemy you can't shoot him

Ah how wrong you are.  The F-16 is still the best fighter plane out there... Until the JSF is commissioned into duty... by the way the JSF is the f-35 in BF 2.

Also you dont need to see your enemy to kill them ever heard of  JDAM?  Yeah you get a lock from 10 miles away and their dead.  Game over.
