Closest anologue is probably something of Bismarck, Richelieu, Late Nagato, South Dakota (1939) and Littorio level.

Yeah IRL she along with many other ships pretty much kicked Scharnhorst’s teeth in, even when Scharnhorst did score hits they either didn’t penetrate or caused surface level damage (which was the whole idea behind KGV’s armour scheme). In-game that’s not going to be reflected but I look forward to replicating shots that penned scharnhorst irl and watching them non-pen in-game.

Yeah when I worked it out her belt has pretty ridiculous levels of protection which takes it up to somewhere around 20 inches between the belt and the magazines/machinery. Protection was so good that despite knowing about Yamato and Bismarck they thought it was okay to reduce the thickness on Vanguard and keep it the same on even late Lions.

from what i saw propably not, was never equipped i think the, suggestion thread about it doesnt mention it anywhere either

exactly why im asking

and yea it did have it

What does the E have that the C doesnt? Imo the current f15 is on par for air against the su 27. I have both and prefer the f15 for the current furball meta. The su 27 isnt great at dogfighting unless you catch someone who doesnt spam flares in a dogfight. I know people say the f15 has a wing rip issue but i rarely rip my wings.

Yeah in terms of the actually layout it was the tradeoff for an external belt but even so angle off fall at distance worse vs slab sided which is why they have square turret faces.

Gaijin doesn’t model effective thickness of naval composites in-game although they absolutely should because its no different than composite armour. Imagine if Chobham or C-Technologie composite was modelled the same as the T-64’s fiberglass composite.

not this model, apparently that was the SM3 one

04 Red Su-27SM was equipped with Sapsan-E TGP. One of the skins we saw in announcement is 04 Red.

yep, exactly this

I changed my mind the D variant would be more viable in game for Air to Air combat.

Special pylon for TGP, more hardpoints for bombs, more fuel, maneuverablility of Tornado.

skins dont mean anything.

Omg part 4

Balls :(

It is a very funny vehicle, only tank is struggle with is the KV-1.

The name in french currently is regarding to it’s abilities to destroy the world,… SNLE Class in France Carries Atomic Weapons. ^^"

Wouldn’t the C be better than the D for air to air combat though?

I cant imagine it would lose that much agility and fly like a tornado but i guess we will see.

again wrong model, Skins dont mean anything

Way more pylons and i would have to assume a much higher thrust to weight to carry the extra ordinance.
