Pretty sure AL-41FS puts out more thrust than PW-229
whats that copy paste you say?
You all compare Su-35S and F-15E but i want to remind you what F-15E is a 14.0 jet with 8 missiles and without AESA radar. Su-35S will be overall much better cause of R-77-1 wich is way more versatile cause of 50g, AESA radar, great acceleration with thrust vectoring. I don’t think what F-15E will beat Su-35S in game if the skill level of players is equal.

that is per engine
Ah that would make more sense. Was thinking, how the hell does the Su-35 have less thrust than a Typhoon
Ok buddy, but we were talking about airframe performance there, not the missile and radar kit.
14500kgs x2 against 10900kgs x2?
How
CV9040 but it has a special skin, take it or leave it
Swedish girlfriends for every wt player I hope
what would be great would be like the CV90 MK4 50MM
Im drooling over the idea of having it (why did we get the mediocre mk4 variant)
Support on bug report and opinions on polls would be very appreciated!

Thank You

Static thrust is only used on the runway. This is the only slightly weaker Su-27SM engines.
As for the numbers:
Su-27SM: 184 seconds to mach 1.5. 5 minutes to mach 2 [video broke after that].
F-15E: 145 seconds to mach 1.5. 4 minutes to mach 2.
F-15JM: 176 seconds to mach 1.5. 5 minutes to match 2.
Su-30SM: 222 seconds to mach 1.5. 6 minutes to mach 2.
The Su-27SM is the fastest Flanker ever produced, having a high thrust engine coupled with the lower weight 16,700kg empty, and shorter wingspan over Su-35, and no canards compared to Su-30SM series.
Even if you want to say the 3.6% more thrust of the 41F-1S is enough… the Su-35 weighs 15.7% more than Su-27SM, while having 2 more feet of wingspan.
And seeing how Su-27SM barely keeps up with F-15JM, Su-35 won’t.
Su-35 will have a good radar, and will be better than Su-30SM. It however won’t be objectively better than the other 14.3s.
Interesting info, good job, really. :)
It wont be meta, nothing can beat Rafale yet, but it will be still way better than new F-15C GE on 14.3, i prefer versatile 50g missiles rather than high speed, high altitude “missile bus” with only 8 missiles against 14, its my personal opinion but anyway. I really hope what atleast in the next update in december they will give F-15C GE 16 missile to balance it.

F-15C GE was never cleared for missile count upgrades.
It can get BOL pods tho, which against 12* R-77s is more than enough.
He have both but not at the same time, you can either take BOL pod and 2 missiles or 4 missiles without BOL. I prefer 4 missiles.
Do you have a single source stating those quad wing pylons are actually functional?
All ive heard so far is that those are just a mockup and it hasnt actually been fitted.
As for the double belly racks. Those will probably come with the F-15EX

That is currently a National Guard aircraft, and was used in testing.
Its results are not universal across all F-15Cs.
So far I’ve only seen F-15EX with potential integration.
