  1. Thrust vectoring is required for any modern fighter.

  2.  @izanagisburden9465  Even if TVC is used in F22 and NGAD for supermanuverability?

  3.  @izanagisburden9465  F22 has SUPERIOR manuverability to YF23. Thats why it won the competition, despite the YF23 lower RCS.

  4.  @izanagisburden9465  BVR have poor kill probability against manuverable fighters. Stealth is irrelevant in a dogfight.

  5.  @izanagisburden9465  US has only fought 3rd world air forces in air combat. In the Gulf war, a MiG 25PD was able to evade 10 missiles fired by an F15. The Serbs were able to shoot down a F117 and damage another, forcing withdrawal from service.

  6.  @izanagisburden9465  Exactly, but it still proved that BVR missiles a can be defeated, even under ideal conditions. Supermanuverability and vectored thrust will be needed against peer opponents.

  7. F15EX doesn't fly in areas defended by modern SAMs. F15 has only bombed poor failed states and militants.

  8.  @harapatrick8406  Not against S400 SAMs.
