As the subject says, I'd like to know which is the best modern jet

fighter
in your opinion??? Personaly, my bet is on Su 27 family-in

particular
the
Su
37 fighter...



F-15C. Unchallenged combat record.

How much combat has the SU-27/37 seen?

Call me when they get some actual experience.


Well as far as i remember, there has been air-to-air combat between
Ethiopian and Eriterian (spelling?) Su-27's and MiG-29, in which the

Su-27
shot down a couple of MiG-29's, so the Su-27 does have combat experience
against the same aircraft as the F-15.


OK, is it 120-0?


No, I just wanted to point out that the Flanker has shotdown aircrafts of
the same type as the F-15 has.


As far as I know the F-15 has "only" fought against Iraqi and Serbian

MiG's,
so they do have similar combat experience, although the F-15 most likely
have flown more combat hours.


Umm, you forget Israeli experience.


Yeah I know I forgot that, as you can see from my post above.

Regards
Søren Augustesen
