Well, with that source not an option, all remaining sources state 11’000kg. therefore it should be set to 11’000kg.
Not the current 11’250 kg? that they either used classified sources for or made up.
Da7 isn’t a production aircraft

And there is that as well
Low key it makes sense that the prototypes would be heavier than the production variant as the prototypes would have to test a lot of various subsystems and weapons and such that wouldn’t be on the final product

Plus additional sensors + not streamlined design for some parts

All I will say is that the empty weight listed in certain documents includes things that the empty weight in game does not include. And I strongly suspect that if you properly account for those factors, you will find out that the empty mass in the your document actually shows the aircraft to be too heavy in game.

What does that prove?
flame seems to have the neccessary context that cant be posted here
also that the EFs true ingame empty weight is 11340kg
and Flame has multiple sources for it too be 340kg lighter
and there are at least 2 sources which cant be posted here, that say the current weight is correct
i wonder which of the sources might be more correct
and flame has already commented on that
and i awnsered the comment
the weight ingame in fact lines up with the documents in the same conditions
so please leave it be,
the current weight is correct
It’s hard to trust someone purely by them saying “Trust me bro”
Apparently there are 2 people with the document and both have a different opinion and interpretation about it. How are we supposed to judge?

its not like the document is hard to find
it is just that it cant be posted here
You can just ask for it in dms. Just not here
I know, I just read it. I see the value and I can also see and read the additional mounted hardware that’s not actually taken into account in War Thunder in empty weight…
In addition I find it extremely hard to believe that the plane weighs exactly round 100’s of KG.
So there is likely also some difference there, granted we don’t know if up or down, but as a guess I would argue they would usually go over to make sure that it’s not too heavy for lifting equipment etc.
