F16 or SU37? which do u think is better?

Question

Please give your reasons too. Thank you.

Answer 1

I think F16 is more agile than SU37, but SU37 is more reliable.

Answer 2

they are not the same class.

It also depends on what are the features to talk about... if you are talking about fuel consumption, then the F 16 is better, since it has only one engine and is overall smaller, which by principle means less fuel to be burned to fly that craft.

since the F 16 is about two decades earlier design than the Sukhoi 27 family, it is without any doubt the one being beaten here. Let alone the fact that the original F 16 was a MiG 21 counterpart - to outperform the lightweight frontline fighter. Even though the F 16 grew a lot from its childhood years, the Sukhoi 27 Flanker family still are dedicated air superiority planes, which provides them with more powerfull radar and loong range missiles.

Answer 3

F-22 Raptor. It makes about as much since as your comparison.

Answer 4

i don't have reasons but i vote su37

Answer 5

the sukhoi is sure prettier

Answer 6

...you've miss-matched the planes...  the SU37 is the superior aircraft... but put it up against the Raptor (and then the "pilots" will be the "better" decider)...my money is on the U.S. trained fighter pilot, hot out of TOP GUN school...

Answer 7

My opinion is that the SU-37 is better than the F-16. The SU-37 is a much more advanced aircraft than the F-16; it was made years after the F-16, making the SU-37 more technologically advanced~

Answer 8

The SU-37 is more powerful, more advanced, and more maneuverable.  However it is only a prototype and unproven.

The F-16 has been wrung through and through and is a proven weapon.  With a skilled pilot there isn't too much it can't do.  I saw a video of one taking out an F-15 in mock combat.

Answer 9

The Su-37 is undoubtably better. The F-16 is more than thirty years old. While it has been upgraded substantially, it doesn't compare at all favorably with the Su-37, which is only about ten years old. The Su-37 is based on the Su-27, but is almost a completely new aircraft from the ground up. It has more thrust, uses composite materials, it is more agile thanks to thrust vectoring systems, it has longer range, it carries a larger payload, it has more advanced avionics and longer range multi-mode radar. The F-16 is not even in the  same general class as the Su-37 and is much less advanced. The only thing the F-16 has over it is cost. The Su-37 is much more expensive.

However, the Su-37 doesn't technically exist. Two were built as technology demonstrators and test vehicles, but have since been converted to other uses. The equivalent would be the Su-35BM, which incorporates much of the Su-37's developments. Basically, the F-16 is an amazing aircraft, but against the new generation of aircraft enetering servce in this decade, it is obsolete.

Answer 10

SU-37 hands down
