What aircraft is used in the US Homeland Defense? F15 or F16?

F-15 is a heavy air supremacy two-seat fighter, developed by the United States McDonnell Douglas company, using a twin-engine and double-tail layout, with the pursuit of excellent maneuverability and powerful firepower as the main characteristics, entered service in November 1974, the main models are: A, B (two-seat), C, D (two-seater), E (two-seat fighter-bomber), by 2001, F-15 produced a total of more than 1,560 units, the United States Air Force equipped 1,113 units, in 1997 the unit price of the C type was 45.87 million US dollars.

The F-16 is a light single-seat fighter equipped for the F-15 in accordance with the American idea of high and low matching. Developed by General Dynamics of the United States, it began to enter service in August 1978, in addition to equipping the United States Air Force, it has also been exported to 17 countries or regions, and has produced more than 4,000 aircraft, which is the third-generation fighter with the largest output, the most widely used, excellent air combat performance and multi-purpose. It adopts a cantilever mid-wing and single-tail layout.

The F15 is a twin-engine heavy fighter, and the F16 is a single-engine light fighter. The cost of a take-off and landing of the F16 is much lower than that of the F15, and it is used in conjunction with the flight mission of the F15. In the implementation of homeland air defense, the aircraft will be selected according to the threat level of the incoming enemy aircraft.

Air defense uses radar and anti-aircraft missiles. As long as necessary, whether it is F15, F16 or F22, it will be used in air combat.

Generally speaking, the F-16, F-18 and F-14 are all fighters and have air and ground attack capabilities, while the F-15 is an air supremacy fighter with stronger air combat capabilities. The F-16, F-14, F-18 are a little better, and this is the main fighter of the US Navy.

This should be said in many ways, because their uses are different, F-14 and F-18 are mainly carrier-based aircraft, used to take off from aircraft carriers, with a smaller bomb load, but they can last for a long time in the air, and the landing distance is short, while F-15 is mainly used for air combat and ground attack, F-16 has a variety of models, including combat interception type, ground attack type, reconnaissance interception type, etc., with strong mobility.

In terms of overall strength, the F-16 is similar to the F-18, but the F-16 is still stronger.

F15 is the most powerful - heavy annihilation (**expensive), so F16 was made so F15 > F16

The F-14 and F-18 are mainly carrier-based aircraft, and the F14 is a heavy J-RO (**expensive) - hence the F18 that was created

So f14> f18

So f15> f14> f18> f16

The United States itself said that their low-end aircraft F16, so it was ranked last, mainly relatively cheap, exported the main model, and exported F18 and even F22 to the allies of the United States

Why F15 strong? The F22 is a heavy J-RO (** expensive), and the F35 is cheap, so the small fighter is not necessarily weak.

Comprehensive strength F16, F18 strong; Air combat F15 strong.

If there is PK between them, it is F15 strong.

These fighters are difficult to compare.

And you don't have a specific model of the individual fighter.

If you talk about it from the base type.

F14a is the most powerful.

The F15A is the queen of the hangar.

The F16A is a budget aircraft.

F18a is just a little bee.

The F15 fighter and the F16 fighter A B are the early single-two-seat type, which is mainly for air supremacy, and the CD is an improved single-two-seater, which has improved the ground attack capability and can be used for close support. The F15E F is a single-two-seater fighter-bomber with a focus on ground attack. These are equipped by the U.S. military, in addition to some special export models, such as the Japanese F15J (similar to the F15A B), the South Korean F15K (similar to the F15AE F), the Singapore F15SG (with the addition of a conformal fuel tank, the stealth performance is improved), as well as the Israeli F15i, the Saudi F-15E single-seat solution, the F-15F, etc.

F16 also has a lot of export models, such as Israel F16i, South Korea F16K, UAE F16 E F, etc., and there are also divided by batches, such as UAE F16 E F, also called F16 Block60, which is very troublesome and I can't tell the difference.

A, B, C, D, E, F, this is the model code, on this basis there are derivative models, will be added block50, block51, etc., but the Korean aircraft letter is K, such as F15K...

The world's more famous high-low combination is the F-15 and F-16, the Russian Su-27 and MiG-29, and even the Chinese Su-27 30 and J-10. The combination of high and low does not refer to the combat altitude, but to the comprehensive performance and cost performance of the aircraft. Generally, it is a heavy multi-role fighter with a light fighter.

The F-15 currently in service in the US military is mainly the F-15C D (air supremacy heavy fighter) and F-15E (ground attack fighter), while the F-16 mostly performs escort, air defense, air supremacy, and cooperates with F-15 fighters in combat. In Russia, the Su-27 mostly performs ground-to-sea attack missions, or long-range air combat, and the MiG-29 generally performs front-line support air defense and homeland air defense missions. China's Su-27 30 is also multi-purpose, the J-10 bomb load and take-off weight are a notch smaller, although it is also multi-purpose, but it is still the best when used with heavy fighters.

The combination of high and low can be understood as the combination of high-end and low-end, which is the difference between the performance and ** mentioned by the friend upstairs.

In fact, the reason why the combat targets of the two are almost matched is that the United States has discovered a law through a large number of practical verifications -- the combat efficiency of one low-grade aircraft is not as good as that of one high-end aircraft, but the combat effectiveness of 10 low-grade aircraft can be about the same as that of 10 high-end aircraft.

In other words, more is not always better.

Coupled with factors such as cost, the United States has adopted a small number of high-end machines and a large number of low-end machines, and many countries have followed suit.

The F15 is a heavy fighter-bomber. The F16 is a light multifunctional fighter. itself except for the volume. There are gaps in cruise, range, fire control, and payload.

The cost and combat effectiveness are much worse. Some missions don't use an aircraft like the F15, just use the F16.

China is currently also J7, J11BJ8, J82, J10, high and low. This is easy to understand.

The F15 was aimed at the Mi 25, but later it was found that the MiG-25 was very rough, and now it is aimed at heavy fighters such as the Su 27 Su30.

The F16 is primarily aimed at light fighters such as the MiG-29, MiG-23, J8 Mirage 2000.

The F-15 has better performance, but it is also more expensive. If you are equipped with a large number of F-15s, you can't afford it, so you can use a lower-grade F-16 to fill the number.

The F-15 is mainly used against high-performance targets that threaten high and is the vanguard of air supremacy. The F-16 is a substitute and focuses on ground attacks.

Just like now, in addition to the police, the public security bureau also has a lot of assistant managers to help.

It turns out that the US Air Force means ** on the F15 is high, F16 is cheap, the so-called high and low match. Due to the technological superiority of the Americans, even the so-called low F16 also adopts N new technologies, which is an absolute high-performance workhorse in any country other than the United States. Both the F15 and F16 were originally designed for pure air supremacy, and both were later improved into all-round warriors.

The two types of aircraft have different functions, the F16 is a close-range combat aircraft, and the F15 is a long-range support aircraft, these two aircraft are high and low together, but if you want to be stronger than anyone, it is F16 at close range, and F15 at long distance

F15, the so-called high and low collocation is F15 is high F16 is low, F15 is a heavy fighter, only air-to-ground are relatively strong, generally F15 obtains absolute or relative air supremacy after F16 on the field to clear some targets of the opponent, as for why not use F15 all, mainly for cost reasons, F15 is much more expensive than F16.

F15, the so-called high and low collocation is F15 is high F16 is low, F15 is a heavy fighter, only air-to-ground are relatively strong, generally F15 obtains absolute or relative air supremacy after F16 on the field to clear some targets of the other side, as for why not use F15 all, mainly for cost reasons, F15 is much more expensive than F16.

How do heavy machines compare with medium machines?

The F-15 and the Thunder are stronger than the F-15, the F-15 is a heavy aircraft and is a third-generation aircraft, and the Thunder is a light aircraft and a quasi-third-generation aircraft, and you can tell who is stronger from the algebra.

F-16 and J-10 are stronger than J-10, because J-10 takes F-16 as an imaginary enemy from design to manufacturing and finally improvement, so J-16 is stronger than F-16, but F-16 radar performance is slightly stronger than J-10, and J-10 is stronger than F-16 on the whole!

A discerning person will know if he takes a look at **... The more expensive the stronger, the more affordable it is!!
