Forgot to reply to this one, the laser mavs where flat out not launchable until 32808 feet on dev, as in you can depress the trigger but they wont come off the rail until this distance.
On the subject of laser intensity, I am not aware of gaijin actually modeling that in game at all, the GBU series of laser guided bombs are frankly a terrible measure of that due to their abysmal seeker performance across the board in game sadly, its in part why the AGM-123 is nearly unusable in game at any range beyond point blank.
That’s a later PESA radar project, the Sokol series which were essentially renamed as part of the Zhuk family (bit more complicated than that, but anyway).
The Zhuk’s on later Su-30MKK’s were regular planar array ones, like on the Yak-141 or MiG-29SMT.
Imagine something like “Coalitions”, ability to freely create said combination, be it historical alliances (NATO, Warsaw Pact) or freely. It would be such a mess to balance tho (imagine Germany/Swedesh tank lineup with Soviet AA and US CAS)
And in all honestly they could and should have added the SU-27M with or instead of the SU-27SM so we could have access to a better radar system (N011).
