There are several powerful 3rd generation fighters in the world, such as J11, SU33, SU30, Rafale, Mi

In fact, each has its own advantages. There is no such thing as the strongest. For example, the maneuverability F15 is definitely inferior to the Su27, and the over-the-horizon attack F15 is definitely stronger than the Su27.

A typhoon taking off on land is definitely better than a gust of wind, and a typhoon taking off from the sea can only stare dryly. And the single-engine aircraft is not necessarily bad, the single-engine aircraft is only bomb-carrying and the range is generally inferior to the double-engine aircraft, and the thrust ratio of the whole aircraft may not be lower (such as the JAS39 with F414), in short, each has its own use.

At present, the more advanced third-generation aircraft:

Europe: Typhoon, Rafale, JAS39

Russia: Su35 33 30 27, MiG-35 29 China: J10 J11 J11B

USA: f15 16 18

If you want to compare those single-engine and single-seat third-generation aircraft, don't show off, it is originally a product of highland tower configuration, and the performance of carrier-based aircraft is not comparable to the main aircraft of the Air Force. The air combat capability of the F18 is also a slag in front of some single-engine and single-seat fighters, Su-33, there are many models in the imagination, but unfortunately the performance of the Su-33 in reality is much worse than that of the Su-30.

In terms of comprehensive performance, the strongest combat effectiveness is the F15, with a large number of various modifications, advanced avionics, large bomb load, and strong maneuverability.

Compared with the theoretical air combat capability, the Su-35BM is the strongest, and the legendary Snow Leopard E plus the legendary medium-range kinetic energy enhancement projectile allows the Su-35BM to carry out effective strikes outside the range of other third-generation aircraft medium-range catapults, but the number of Su-35BM is really not worth mentioning. In addition, the high maneuverability that Sukhoi fighters have always advocated has always been doubtful in dogfights, taking the J10 with PL9C as an example, the maximum launch off-axis of 30 degrees plus the helmet sight, those so-called maneuvering maneuvers have a very small chance of escaping.

The remaining J11, Su-30, and those third-generation heavy aircraft of the European system are not much different in performance, and they are half a pound or two against each other.

From the 70s of the last century to the beginning of this century, the world's major air force powers have officially equipped and entered service with third-generation fighters. The American F-15, F-16 and F-18 are outstanding representatives of the third generation of fighters. Russian third-generation fighters have Su-27 and MiG-29.

The French Mirage 2000 is also an excellent third-generation fighter.

In the predicament of the blockade and embargo of Western military science and technology, relying on the tenacious struggle, arduous research and absorption and innovation of China's aviation science and technology industrial front, China also continuously developed and equipped China's third-generation fighters J-10 and J-11 at the beginning of this century.

American F-15, F-16, F-18, Soviet MiG-29, Su-27 and French"Mirage 2000"Wait. The main features are the use of turbofan engines with a thrust-to-weight ratio of 8, an all-weather fire control system in all directions and heights, a fly-by-wire control system and an advanced aerodynamic layout, etc., mainly air-to-air missiles, supplemented by aviation guns, the maximum flight speed and altitude are similar to those of the second generation, and the subsonic and transonic maneuverability at medium and low altitudes is prominent, and it has the ability to shoot down at over-the-horizon combat and downward.

After the Vietnam War, the United States, the Soviet Union and other countries began to develop third-generation jet fighters. Its focus is on emphasizing combat air combat capabilities and all-weather combat capabilities; Great attention is paid to the maneuverability of aircraft in the sub-transonic range; There has been a breakthrough in the level of performance of the on-board electronics and the most advanced systems. Judging by the results of actual combat, the development of the third-generation fighter was relatively successful.

The main reason for this is due to the fact that the designers correctly summed up the lessons of several local wars since the 60s; Secondly, due to the rapid development in aerodynamics, power plant, electronics, airborne **, materials, etc., in the late 60s and early 70s, it also created good conditions for the development of fighters.

Third-generation fighter. The F-15, F-16 and F-18 are outstanding representatives of the third generation fighter of the United States, while the Su 27 and MiG-29 are representatives of the third generation fighter of Russia. The J-10 is a third-generation fighter made in China.

Israel's F-21, Japan's F-1, France's Mirage F-1 fighter and super-military flagship attack aircraft, Italy's F104S star fighter

All of the above has been said.

These are strong. But the strongest are the American F15 and F18

Actual combat out.

The Rafale Navy is a third-and-a-half-generation fighter deployed in recent years, and the maximum payload on the aircraft carrier can reach more than 8 tons.

Rafale is also the world's first fire control computer to use 1 billion computing power, but because the diameter of the nose is too small, the diameter of the radar is limited, and the radar search range is average. The overall degree of informatization and electronic warfare capabilities are higher than those of the Su-33, but not as good as the EF18F fighters of the US Navy.

The time of service of the Su-33 was at the end of the 90s of the last century, the aircraft took off on the aircraft carrier because it was not equipped with a catapult, so it could not take off with full fuel and full load, and the other two aircraft suffered from the loss compared to the other two aircraft in the combat radius, and the weakest point was that the Su-33 ground attack capability was very general, and there was no precision strike on the ground compared with the various types of ground strikes, and the function was relatively single, and the degree of informatization was worse than that of Rafale and F18. The combat effectiveness of the brigade is relatively weak.

The F18 is a series, there are A, B, C and E, F and other models, the latest F18 is based on the original 25% enlarged size and weight of the aircraft, the overall performance except for maneuverability is better than similar aircraft in Europe, including Russia. Moreover, it is possible to mount 8 of the latest AIM-120C7 medium-range active radar-guided air-to-air missiles on one aircraft, and the air combat capabilities are quite excellent.

If you compare the Su-33, F18 improved, and Rafale fighters in a one-to-one heads-up or without external information technology support, the comprehensive combat strength should be 1, F18 improved, 2, Rafale, 3, Su-33
