It should be removed from Su-30SM/SM2 and Su-25SM3, only Su-34 should have them imo.
And for the T/220 bit. It’s designed for Su-27/MiG-29 related platforms, Su-25 is not one of those intended carriers due to it’s pre-existing internal designator.
T/220 does exist irl and is in use by a foreign airforce, it was put on Su-30SM/SM2 for the sake of “Balance” with Su-30MKM and eventually MKI, according to the developers.
Su-25SM3 is slow and historically capable of carrying them, Su-30SM/SM2 is fast and unhistorically capable of carrying them.
doesn’t the Su-25T have the Mercury targeting pod paired with it’s own internal designator? i remember it had the same designator as the Su-25 (which SUCKS) but it can carry the Mercury targeting pod.
Su-25SM3 is slow and historically capable of carrying them
It’s slow and incapable of carrying them, just like Su-30SM/SM2. I’d like to see the evidence to that claim.
doesn’t the Su-25T have the Mercury targeting pod paired with it’s own internal designator?
As far as I understand, yes they did.
However the Su-25T/TM program predates T/220’s inception by around a decade or so so I don’t really know what that has to do with anything. Also Su-25T’s internal designator is Shkval, same as Ka-50’s, Not Kylon-PS like the standard Su-25/25SM uses.
Probably why i feel the abrams as being a pretty strong tank as it has a very nice combination of firepower and mobility.
Russian mbts have no where near comparable firepower, well the 6 second reload buff helped but still not the same.
I’ve literally no dog in the KH38MT fight i haven’t died to one in a long time nor have i used them either.
On the case of realism i do believe it’s nonsense if a plane has armerment it didn’t use.
Btw the EF2000 for Germany realistically shouldn’t have brimstones either as an FYI.
As they only ordered them recently.
The SU27s missile loadout against ARH carriers is definitely more useful than the F15 even if it has a slightly worse radar. 6 is it 27ERs works better VS the likes of F4 ICE and company than the sparrows.
Yeah it’s pretty A symetrical now adays for them.
Tbh id go out on a limb and say SU27 can cope better in the current higher BR meta of ARH slingers.
I mean F15A has always done me well.
Im currenrly 3 off of tbe su27 as i went the SMT line so need to recoperate that.
i know, i was saying that if Su-25T can use the Mercury targeting pod, why not the Su-25SM3 the T220 targeting pod.
nvm i couldn’t find footage of it.
it looks like it can only carry Kh-25, 29 and 59 (also Kh-28, but that one is anti-radiation).
however i still see it quite fair for a slow plane with bad maneuverability to carry Kh-38, especially when it’s limited to 4 ingame (compared to 6 in the Flankers). but i’m not going to complain, my bad by saying it can.
Idk man, It took me over 50 rounds to detonate the BMPT’s internal ammo rack with the puma’s 30mm apfsds. There seems to be something wrong with the damage model. And no i wasn’t missing. more than 50 rounds straight into the ammo. had to watch it slowly go from white to yellow to orange to red.
Didnt have russians claiming they need tank buffs on my 2026 cards… How are you guys even able to get out your kh38s when your this bad, im sorry but truly it is a mystery to me. Especially some of the claims about the su 27 being worse than the f15 and so on. I think they guy put it pretty clearly with the trunnion changes and so on showing how they are ALREADY buffed to a pretty high degree and anymore would be 1, obvious and 2, funny.
yeah i meant i have been facing things like F-15E and J-10A, which are very good Fox-3 carriers.
the biggest advantage of the Su-27 is that it’s R-27ERs have insane max speed (they almost literally reach Mach 6, idfk how it doesn’t desintegrate at that speeds), which helps insanely a lot when locking targets above u (which is the best way of getting kills due to how 13.0/14.0 RWRs work).
i know, i was saying that if Su-25T can use the Mercury targeting pod, why not the Su-25SM3 the T220 targeting pod.
I guess, that’s pretty roundabout… Su-25T was planned to get Mercury/Khod due to lacking night time capabilities… however Su-25SM3 doesn’t suffer from said issues.
nvm i couldn’t find footage of it.
it looks like it can only carry Kh-25, 29 and 59 (also Kh-28, but that one is anti-radiation).
Almost like such footage doesn’t exist…
and yeah, it’s Kh-25/29 for it’s primary guided air to ground stores, no Kh-28/59 though.
