  1. Fun fact, in air combat you have to shoot "spoiler" missiles to make your enemy go defensive. You shoot knowing you will miss to force the enemy to turn and then you use your aggressive position to fire the actual killshot. This means BVR with aware enemies always involves low Pk shots. With the F-35, you can just fire killshots because you don't need to waste missiles to force the enemy to defend.

  4. ​ @major__kong  Devolving into a close range fight is like a soldier attaching a bayonet to his rifle and rushing towards the enemy. Sure, technically it can happen. It's just suicidal.

  5. ​ @casematecardinal  Modernizing 4th gen doesn't work because there's airframe life limits, and a new 4th gen costs as much as a F-35.

  6.  @major__kong  If you run out of missiles, you turn back and let your wingmen take the shot. You don't run like a headless chicken towards enemy missiles.

  7.  @REgamesplayer  It was a control laws test. This was announced before the actual test took place. The report also goes into detail on how the control laws need to be fixed.
