IAF Su-30MKI - Missile bus with lot's of different weapons

It should have just been a sub-tree of Israel. It would have fit much better there than in Britain.

Nah, India would be bigger than Israel, they shouldn’t be their sub lol

Man Indian stuff is already in Britain, it’s not gonna change

Low k I agree with you
Just unfortunate gaijin decided India is in Britain instead of Israel, especially considering that Israel is much more in need of Indian/russian stuff instead of Britain

what would india give to israel that greece or singapor wont ?

But then it is going to use an Indian
ASRAAM - British
Meteor - French/British
Astra - Indian
R-37M - Russian

So while Israel have assisted you cannot pick and choose which sub tree you don’t want to have something. Britain has had pure poop from the Indian tree nothing is notable the T-90 is trash the SAMs are fine and the event Jaguar was ok.

We are now getting to the top of the Sub-tree the Su-30MKII and you don’t think it should go to the nation that has the sub tree?

these are not spice

There is literally nothing stopping it from using it; they just haven’t had a reason to drop them yet.

It appears that a new AESA radar for the Su-30, featuring a swashplate design called the Hawk I 2700, has been unveiled. At the same time, a model for the MiG-29 called the Hawk I 900 was also announced.

seems to me a worse missile than even r-77 which is hilarious
kinda impressive replacing r-77 with a missile just simply matches it in performance

Which specs are inferior compared to R-77?

Main thing is that astra has horrendous off-bore ability, r-77 has 360 degree targeting ability while astra mk 1 is limited to only 90 degrees.

Another major thing is the seekerhead where r-77 has a better seekerhead with longer lock range.

Other than those 2 things, astra mk1 is mostly on par with r-77 with the same battery life, range, etc.

Also I would bet r-77 is more maneuverable than astra mk1 but who knows exactly how maneuverable astra is

Astra uses the same seeker as R-77, and another indigenous seeker

40g but thats by secondary sources
