-For BVR combat, the Indians got simulated R-77 missiles with the full range of capability, while the USAF's simulated AMRAAMs were artifically limited to a range of 30km
-The F-15s were not allowed to engage multiple targets at once at BVR.

Then theres the exercise where the US Navy took on the Israeli Air Force and got it's ass handed to it 200 to 40. Of course that score becomes less amazing when the rampant cheating on the part of the Israelis was revealed .
