Which branch has better aircraft Navy or Airforce?

Question

Which one has better A/C

Answer 1

Air Force of course........

Answer 2

the F-15C is the world's premier air to air fighter. the F-15CJ model is slightly less effective at air to air, but it also employs Air to Ground munitions as well. Both of these are AF aircraft.

The next generation FA-22 is going to be highly manueverable AND employ stealth technology, so it's basically going to be as good or better than the F-15 for both AA and AG roles.

F-18's for all the hype, are actually not that much more affective than F-16's. the new JSF, the FA-35, however, is going to both the navy and the air force, so that'll shore up this technological gap.

One of the navy's premier assets is the EA-6 which is capable of electronic warfare and able to jam signals while broadcasting it's own. very handy aircraft and always in demand.

as far as command air craft, the AF has the AWACs and JSTARs which pretty much blow other command aircraft right out of the water.

in short, both have assets that are highly needed and tailored to their missions. as far as edge in air superiority and strategic bombing goes, AF hands down... but navy has it's own role to play

Answer 3

Air Force: F-22, F-16, F-15, F-117, A-10, AC-130, B1B Lancer, B2 Spirit, just to name a few.

Navy: F-14, F-18 (mostly marines piloting these), EA-6B, F-5, E-2C Hawkeye, etc...

Both getting the F-35.

AF has more fixed wing aircraft and the Navy has more rotary wing aircraft.

I think as far as the fighters go, I think the AF has more sophisticated and technologically advanced aircraft.

Answer 4

Of course the airforce has better airfract, but pilot while navy has better pilot because is so much harder to land in aircraft in carrier especially during nightime than any other landing. however chance u swich aircraft in the airforce is much easier than navy, navy u usually had to stay u same model plane for the entire carrer unless is discomission. airforce plane so way more than navy one, eventhouhg navy has actual more active plane than airforce, but navy lack serious bomber, airforce bomber is what make so impressive. after all airforce shall be supreme in aircraft right?

Answer 5

You can't compare the two. The navy has special requirements for corrosion control and ability to sustain thousands of flight deck landings, catapult launches and wire traps.

By the way, the last of the navy F-14's were decommissioned last month. Various versions/configurations of the F-18 Hornet are filling both the attack and fighter roles.

Answer 6

I'd have to answer the airforce only because they're the ones in charge of experimental aircraft and the stealth fighters

Answer 7

depends on what you want to do with the aircraft. if you want to land on a ship, id say navy. if you want to carry a whole lot of bombs a long way then drop them on somebody, go air force. The air force has better air conditioning.

Answer 8

the two... women can truthfully fly combatants, yet they gained't be placed on the severe risk missions over enemy airspace for the justifications women can't be infantry (in case they get shot down)... besides, the possibilities for a woman starting to be a fighter pilot are detrimental, using fact the possibilities for a guy to alter right into a fighter pilot are detrimental and that they are even worse for women... You fairly want a three.5 GPA in college (technical degree) and get commissioned, then get into flight college, then be form one million on your type in flight college... As you will discover, regardless of gender, low possibility

Answer 9

Air Force.

Answer 10

How can you compair,,, you can't land a B-1B on the deck of a carrier, and you can't fly a F-118 half way around the world and drop 4 mushroom clowds.

Answer 11

Fighter aircraft - the navy.....everything else - air force
