They will never admit that, which is such a childish behavior.

Frankly moving the rest of the mig’s down a step is entirely warranted when comparing them to the rest of the stuff at their BR. Granted smt would have a suspiciously good kit for 13.0, but also its fm is like 11.3 tier. As always we need more decompression for actual balance

We do, but i talked about this way to many times already. At least i am getting an alternative for Su-27SM, i am slightly fatigued from playing only Flankers in Russian TT, even if they are my favourite 4th gen airframe out of all.

Tbh I’m still pissed that 9.15 will be squadron vehicle.

They could add 9.13S, that is basically 9.13 with R-77 as squadron :/

Can’t help it at this point. But there is a chance for 9.41R in the tech tree. It might be heavier, but it also has moar wing and moar thrust, so probably will be usable (32 flares still gonna blow tho)

You can get pretty much this in Japan TT. Could’ve been a lazy addition, maybe they’ve tried to make something unique for once

fr, i know where my GE is going now - sad but it is what it is

man i hope su37 does come, that thing will be so great

It will most likely come as premium which will make me purchase it.

Meanwhile my wallet after 30+ premium vehicles and countless GE packs:

Heavier Su-27SM with better radar but worse engines (and TVC for shits and giggles). I’m not sure that it will be as great as people think. But still will be not unplayable

as i understand it it should be similar or less weight to the premium su30’s in game rn, but with better engines and a vastly better radar and TVC which unironically can be useful sometimes (just gives u another tool to use if u need it). So long as it’s 13.3-13.7 it will be plenty good - will it be same level as 27sm and j11B, idk but still good

It’s around 300 kilos lighter than Su-30SM and has the same AL-31FPs but with only 2D TVC.

2d is fine by me, i actually dont like the yaw of the TVC on the '2.5’D TVC from su30sm/sm2 - I think regular aerodynamic control from the rudders is waaaay more controllable even post stall. It’s one of the reasons why i love they added that tvc toggle keybind this update cause it always feels the current tvc modeling basically gives full yaw priority to the engines and next to nothing from the rudder.
