Squadron Vehicles: Su-33

Ok, I don’t understand his perspective either, but no need to be harsh.

MiG-29K still exists. Much better than the Su-33 as next in line after the Yak-141 imo. It carries R-77.

It’s a prototype, and although there’s the MiG-29KR, the Sukhois are still the main representatives of the Russian Naval Aviation branch.

A prototype being in service with the Russian Navy right now? Uhhhh

You don’t get it…

The MiG-29K is a 1980s prototype based on the MiG-29M, while the one in service right now is courtesy of India reviving the project and modernizing it. It’s called the MiG-29KR and Russia decided to adopt it as well, but the Sukhois are still the face of the Russia’s naval air power.

The MiG-29K is not the same as the KR.

The Mig-29K is the one what India uses.
Heres the poll Mikoyan MiG-29K (9-41) - "Living on the Edge"

Does this mean we’re going to start seeing naval vessels in air RB maps? At the moment the only air maps you see carriers on are SIM EC maps and theres only 4 at that.

Seems kinda pointless that we make a deal out of it when you’ll never see it in air RB and AB.

Here’s an older thread.

I didn’t mean to say the MiG-29KR is used by the Indians, only that reviving and modernizing it (the project) was their idea.

Kuznetsov should produce a lot of smoke to be realistic…
And lets not forget about spontaneous combusts…
And rust…
And on tow…

Think Napalm bombs are going to be extra effective against it?

music to my ears
they got new planes every update
yet still not enough and thought that they are got left out.

Not gonna lie
So funny just an update ago people were complaining about “RuSsIaN bIaS”
Now people are like “why russia no get fox 3”
At this point the community cannot get anything new without some sort of stupid whining

As for it’s use as a squadron vehicle, I think this isn’t that radical and even slightly logical
It won’t fit in any line that well(won’t fit in either the sukhoi or yakolev line) and if it is a premium, people will whine even more
Am i mad we never got a seperate Yak-38M-Yak141-Su-33 naval line? slightly
but is this some sort of demonic act the community makes it look like? No
Just stop complaining at this point, just makes us look dumb

Aircraft carriers with ramps belong at the bottom of the ocean, but its very cool still.

So you are telling me im going to have to wait 3 months to play my favourite aircraft ever :(((
Because there is no way im spending an upsurd amount of GE for a vehicle without a talisman.
I was planning to buy the SU-27ML to get to it quicker but ig the snail doesn’t want my money, it just wants my sanity T-T

Well I was going to research the Hunter F.58 but here we are

This is the best possible way to add her. Thank you for giving “Short Bus” a soft landing. 13.0 is about to feel the Flanker baby!
