  1. As these aircraft have top speeds at different altitudes then this exercise has no value as you are comparing chalk and cheese.

  2.  @watcherzero5256  but those maximum speeds cannot be compared to each other because they are all dependent on the specific airframe and engine combinations. The Tornado F.3 was faster then the F-15. But only at low level. Does this mean the Tornado was the better aircraft, ir just the better aircraft in that flight regime?

  3.  @watcherzero5256  exactly, why this kind of analysis is pointless..

  4. You can blame the Cold War for the lack of awareness of the WW2 era Soviet aircraft.
