It's the Typhoon. Damn it !!!! it stays on my tail no matter what. . .
I don't know how a Typhoon would fare in RL though but in Open Falcon it's one tough plane to defeat, guns only speaking.

But I must say that a Flanker at half fuel is another dogfighter than the same Flanker at full fuel.......well at least in LOMAC pfffttt.
Fighting Allies are we? Kick their butt back in shape!

Actually there is only really one plane that you will never get a kill on, or rarely get a kill - The F-22. He can turn inside you at any speed. You can shoot him from range. Your only chance is a lucky sidewinder shot so you magically have to appear near him and you magically have to spot him with the MK1 eyeball sensor and you magically have to be in a spot where you can take the shot.

Of course before all this happens perfectly, he will have shot you down 4 or 5 times. And then when you miss, he will do it again!

Its the most unfair plane to fight in all of Falcon. RL is the same I suspect.
