so 100km radar detection at 13.7, +220m/s rate of ascension and 10 Fox-3s means its a “bad radar”?
dude, i got no issue locking enemies at +70km with the Su-27, so the Su-27SM should be better in almost everything, and the RWR is a lot better than the one in the older Flanker, so i can detect planes and missiles at the same time, making my life a lot more ez when trying to find enemies at my surroundings
Compared to PESA radars like the SU-34 and SU-30 or full AESA like in the Rafale or even Kfir C10. yes
Its also much weaker than Foxhunter (F3), Blue Vixen (FA2 and Gripen) and should be a LOT weaker than CAPTOR-M (Typhoon) but unfortunately isnt due to the buggy nature of CAPTOR-M
Su-27SM is considered the second weakest radar, just ahead of the J-11As which has a single DL channel but is largely the same otherwise.

PD: in ur opinion, i should carry 4 R-77, 2 R-27ER, 2 R-27ET and 4 R-73? or 6 R-77, 2 R-27ET and 4 R-73?
Increasing the seeker range would be a nerf imo
Because the target has more time to react to the active missile
I have no idea. You’ll have to decide which missile you would use the most. Id probably run quite a few R-27ETs though because unless the target has MAWS, they rarely see them coming
not really, i got a few kills with R-27ER at +40km, so if u keep the lock at least when the Fox-3 locks by its own, u could get an easy kill
Some situations it could be more helpful. As it means you can start defending sooner without the need to support the shot for as long. So its not really a buff or a nerf. But still a report that should have been actioned a while ago
plus, its wrong if i have fun in toptier while getting gangbanged by SPAMRAAM?
they don’t know how far the Er is away by looking on the RWR, you can’t judge how much energy it has by looking how fast it is approaching
Meanwhile fox-3s are getting shown on the RWR separately and you can judge how much energy it has by looking at, how fast it approaches you
But what do you want them to do?
Artificially limit every single ARH Missile to have the exact same speed, max range, max G pull and seeker?
Gen 4.5s will dominate
That would be boring af
It is like giving every nation a leopard 2
Yup, but that is what it sounds like OP wants.
if everyone has the same weapons, its more a skill issue battle than a fire and forget battle/point and click battle
and i like skill issue battle
Then War Thunder is not the right game for you. Have you considered WoWP?
stfu, dude, i came here to play with the Su-27, not to get gangbanged by unfair vehicles and uptiers
Homogenous games are boring games
You can achieve balance even tho, everyone has something else
If you don’t want uptiers play top tier
Simple as
