Su-24 The worst interdictor in game

So… we finally have this plane, and is unplayable at Air RB, you are slow like a fat bomber of the WWII era, you can’t even reach the base and bomb it, and don’t try to atack to ground targets, because you’ll be easy prey.

This plane should came when the Panavia and the first F111 came, not now, and not this way, even the first interdictors in game are better than this one.

I regret to get this plane for sure.

and those should have come when the Mig-27 was added in 2022 and the Tornado is still pretty DOA in most air modes, especially when we were trying to play them exclusively against Mig-29s and F-16s as they were all added in the same update. A little better these days since buffs and decompress but still not great (but we did finally get a half decent FM and actual chaff on them 2 years after their introduction) F-111A I think is manageable at its BR but the F-111C and F-111F are probably not going to be all that great either

My advice. Go play Air Sim. Only gamemode where interdictors like the Tornado, F-111 and now Su-24 are actually playable.

Go and check the cabin view of a 2 seater from one side… I thought the same as I like to play sim and just bought a HOTAS but, with this cabin? my god.

We need other game mode for air rb, as even the 6x6 did not work

This plane came too late to be of any real value.

Should have just added the SU34 or SAPSAN to the SU27SM and the SMT.

Limited cockpit visibility is a minor thing for an interdictor/ground attacker (trust me I know from when I playing the Harrier Gr1 a lot) . So as long as the HUD is usable, that is all that matters.

But yes, RB EC gamemode is long overdue

İt’s Russian, gaijin doesn’t care. You need to play USA if you want the good stuff

Tryed in SIM, know what? You don’t have any hud… because all the armament hud is on the other side so… if you have guided bombs you can do something, but you don’t know if you are heading correctly or not, or when yo deploy the bombs

Might get updated in the near future. The Su-24M2 modification should also change the HUD to a modern one.

I update to the M2 mod, later will try in Sim, but in fact it should change all the cockpit as I saw all the pics online are with modern displays and TVs

But the problem is all armament is managed by the co-pilot in this plane, they should add some fictional HUD to help in case.

Sounds like exact Tornado gameplay. At least the huge amount of guided ordnance might be good in GRB. Tornado is just able to carry a single GBU-24.
