July 22, 201312 yr The Kfir C.7 is perhaps the most powerful IAF a/c asset of the HDS3 and later MEDC scenarios.In HCE the Kfir is rated at 1516 kts top speed which enables it to choose the fights it wants to fightdisengage from the rest and reach any critical spot around Israel quickly.It also easily outruns the Damascus Gammon SAMs (1434kts), which would otherwise be a majorheadache for blue for the MEDC scenarios.Is this top speed for real or is this a typo?The Wikipedia article actually lists the Kfir C.7 with Maximum speed: 2,440 km/h (2 Mach, 1,317 knots, 1,516 mph) above 11,000 m (36,000 ft) In the original MEDC the Kfir had 1317 kts top speedfrom HDS3 on it has 1516kts. Typo?
July 23, 201312 yr 1,317 knots is the figure adopted by Harpoon4. 1,516 knots was probably a typo in the old battleset/database.
July 23, 201312 yr Very probably a typo, not at home and without computer neither my tables today, I will see it tomorrow, very late in the day ...
July 23, 201312 yr From my working tables about aircraft performances, not cited sources, but all the data obtained in serious aviation books or magazines: Kfir C.1: máximum speed Low 702, High 1317, climb rate 238. Kfir C.2: Low 750/756, High 1233/1258, climb rate 176. Kfir C.7/C.10/C.12: Low 750, High 1319, climb rate 233.
July 23, 201312 yr Author Thanks Enrique! Goodbye to the Foxbat Kfir! It was a fun while it lasted . Any way to have this corrected for the classic battesets? ExportDLL?
