do you guys think they will smite the su30sm2 once the su30sm drops? at this point its pretty clear the aircraft is not correct, maybe we’ll get the extra cm’s then lol

You mean Su-35?
I think the radar at least might get nuked, and the improved range BARS to take its place.
Engines I think it’s a bit harder, since gaijin’s stance is “it tested them so it gets them”, they’d probably shoot down all bug reports.
watch them keep the fake sm2 and then add the so called future AESA su35
If they would both downgrade the radar and engines then it’s not even worth being 14.7 anymore
For wt purposes (Pesa and Aesa not differing much) I’d still rather have the IRBIS, compared to a fixed plate Aesa.

What I mean is that the engines are likely to stay, since for gaijin testing them on non-production testbeds was enough.
For the radar though gaijin said that it was given to it following what the SM2 upgrade should have been (Smin words), so they likely don’t have concrete sources that could back the IRBIS up.
Imo, with BARS and AL-41’s it’d still be 14.7 material.

Yes
As soon as i saw 11.0 as a top br i knew that MiG-25 would be there, chasing poor phantoms
Flareless F-4C’s are doomed with the R-40TD around.
Though with everyone playing mostly low it’s hard to make the radar work to score R-40RD kills, still had a pretty good time playing it today.
I got also few kills with R-40RD.

Sometimes even when pointing at terrain it still manages to track some stuff.
I scored more R-40RD kills on clueless Jaguars flying high trying to joust their nukes :)

I’m kinda scared to play this low sometimes, even R-60’s (despite having poor energy) turn into aim-9X’s against the foxbat xD, the thing is just boiling hot.

It was quite risky, but given that the enemy has significantly outdated equipment (except F-5E), it wasn’t that big of a problem.
