They modeified the F-15 after the initial design.

2018-11-05 21:03:58 UTC  

No the f-16/18 are multi-role.

2018-11-05 21:04:20 UTC  

the F-15 is air superiority.

2018-11-05 21:04:23 UTC  

No, the F-16 and F-15 were both developed as the next generation Air superiority fighter, as was the F-17 for that matter.

2018-11-05 21:04:31 UTC  

Wouldn't destroying tactical satellites be an act of war?

2018-11-05 21:04:36 UTC  

F-18 was the only one originally intended as F/A.

2018-11-05 21:04:37 UTC  

So using anti-satellite missiles is rather stupid. It would be smarter to use Laser to blind the satellites.

2018-11-05 21:04:54 UTC  

You don't destroy them, you don't create Kessler Syndrome either.

2018-11-05 21:05:02 UTC  

You just blind them.

2018-11-05 21:05:04 UTC  

Like shooting down a plane

2018-11-05 21:05:10 UTC  

Who cares. You're in a major shooting war.

2018-11-05 21:05:11 UTC  

oh, another option is this: <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boeing_X-37>

2018-11-05 21:05:24 UTC  

`The combat-proven F-16 is the world’s most capable 4th generation multi-role fighter, serving as the workhorse of the fighter fleet for 28 customers around the world. The F-16V, the latest F-16 configuration, includes numerous enhancements designed to keep the F-16 at the forefront of international security.`

2018-11-05 21:05:26 UTC  

Oh I forgot about that, our rapid deployment platforms.

2018-11-05 21:05:48 UTC  

launch one of those on a Falcon 9 and have it just put limpet mines on enemy satellites, to be command detonated at will.

2018-11-05 21:06:01 UTC  

Actually it doesn't work that way.

2018-11-05 21:06:01 UTC  

We get it you identify as a 🛬

2018-11-05 21:06:14 UTC  

It skims off the surface of our atmosphere.

2018-11-05 21:06:24 UTC  

It never stops.

2018-11-05 21:06:32 UTC  

@Dennafen My point is that the F-15 is like the F-16 it was air superiority in the initial build but became multirole later.

2018-11-05 21:06:34 UTC  

It is hypersonic too.

2018-11-05 21:06:53 UTC  

No.

2018-11-05 21:07:02 UTC  

It mostly to spy on Countries and deploy bombing capabilities.

i made a hard predicition

2018-11-05 21:07:22 UTC  

republican sweep

2018-11-05 21:07:22 UTC  

The F-15 was designed from the ground up as an air superiority fighting.

2018-11-05 21:07:24 UTC  

majority maintainec

2018-11-05 21:07:26 UTC  

Wow.

2018-11-05 21:07:29 UTC  

Brave.

2018-11-05 21:07:32 UTC  

nah

2018-11-05 21:07:34 UTC  

@Timcast Wow. That's a hard prediction.

2018-11-05 21:07:36 UTC  

Timcast..... we all been predicting that.

2018-11-05 21:07:36 UTC  

people dont watch me for my predictions

2018-11-05 21:07:37 UTC  

Military planes can be scary, a couple flew over my head in the desert randomly once

2018-11-05 21:07:49 UTC  

I'm going to actually go the other way. I predict a D sweep.

2018-11-05 21:07:51 UTC  

Democrats are so out of touch and the polls are really off.

2018-11-05 21:07:51 UTC  

nate silvers job is to make predictions

2018-11-05 21:08:04 UTC  

but i think my logic is sound
