So where can I find out how F-15/F-16/F-18 do against MiG-29, Su-31,
Mirage, Eurofighter, Griffon?


The USAF has a base out west someplace where they compete against them.
Might be the "Top Gun" school.


Top Gun is Navy and the base is in the desert now, no longer at Miramar.


USAF used to be Red Flag at Nellis.


AFAIK, it still is...

There is usually a Red Flag cycle underway when we are up at the Las Vegsas
Motor Speedway in March for NASCAR.

Can't hardly stay in the TV truck for the impromptu airshow going on
overhead not to mention our cameras on the pressbox roof get a great veiw of
the Nellis ramp and runways.

The Thunderbirds usually will do some flybys as well.

This past spring, we were treated to the sight of not one, not two but three
B2s coming and going along with a seemingly endless string of F15s, F16s,
B1s, A10s, KC135s/10s and even a British Nimrod, some F117s and a Navy EA6B.
