Yeah. Would be nice if all nations got good stuff instead of Giving US the best plane and then giving the US another best plane that bests their old best plane.
Imagine people were scared about Su-34…
Su-33 (Su-27K) may well just be the kind of plane that should’ve been added in June, thanks to having actual engines.
Typhoon for GB may well be totally insane in Air RB.
yeah i looked into it a bit and it looks to me that since 1998 the first time the PzH received major changes were the Hungarian and Qatar orders. Both have night and day driver support system optics, and new air conditioning. I know that the Hungarian version has a new automatic loader and fire control system, but I am still searching for a printed source.
RBE2 PESA instead of RBE2 AA (AESA), no meteors, but equipped with MICA IRs, EMs and a fair few Strike options, like SCALP (Storm Shadow), AASM (Hammer), Exocet or ASMP-A (funni nuke).
To sum it up, it goes :
F2
F3
F3.2
F3.3
F3.4+
F3-O4T
F3R
F4
F4.1
F4.2
F stands for France, and the number on the right clearly was made up by some people at Dassault, and you can tell they were having a bad day lmao
Then there’s C for “Chasse” M for “Marine”, and B for “Biplace”, but those designation are independant of the version, since all the versions above apply to each category. All in all : quite a happy mess
Well, given how Su-27 bleeds all speed on mild maneuvers, Su-34 is heavier and pulls harder, without thermals and 2 more missiles, difficult to see where the fear could come from.
If it was some kind of multirole strike fighter with reall good power to weight and a decent thermal targeting pod, there would have been good reason for fear.
As it stands, the writing was on the wall and look at what we’ve got ingame. Another Pinata for SPAA.
If you now compare 6x KH-38 on an aircraft that can run fox-3s and does have a good radar and are supsonic with adequate handling…To something like the tornado or harriers that make up the core of A2G for multiple nations and you can see where the fear comes from. Especially when the only nation that could really threaten the Su-25SM3 with SPAA was the soviets. Su-34 only makes that worse
