Per Gordon and Davison, the first batches of the Su-27 were designated for the Air Defenses (PVO) before the VVS (tactical aviation would get them).
This came from the 1982 batch, and the Su-27P, which is slightly different than the S (P had Air Defense datalink like MiG-23ML, was not built with A2G capability), was produced and entered service first. If you don’t understand that, that’s fine, I could care less. Su-27S came after.
If this is how they’ll be implemented, I’m hoping Germany’s fighter is the Su-27.
Bit worried about how easily the F-15 wings are breaking…
its cool and silly japan will have the best f-15 out of the box with better missiles/better radar.
not even america can be shining star with updates its like “its an american plane with an export, so ofc it will be better than america’s for updates to come” 💀
god damn thing looks like F-8 Crusader
my bets are on F4F ICE
although I’d welcome a Su-27 more in the Pre-f3 times
subject to change my guy
Mike said only 2 flankers this update, J-11 and Su-27S USSR
That wouldn’t come before AMRAAMs.
F-4 all over again XD and F-86 too! XD
alright then either Tornado ASSTA 2 or F4 at 12.3 with only 9L
okay nvm 5s reload won’t complain about the chally 3 anymore
They also said that only America, China, and Israel would get F-16s in Apex Predators.
Germans never touched Su-27
East Germany bought them.
f104s aswell…
shocker…
they officaly ordered it, only reunation stopped it
if sth is coming then that
unless, I mean yk they tested the F-15…
I’m thinking it’ll be an F-15, yeah.
F-15 had propably strongest build ever out of american planes, but yeah. It does breaks )))))))
