Su-27 is unplayable

Multipath is just SO RNG, at leats notching you have reliable results.

Pun intended?

There is pretty bad compression at the moment, but the Su-27s are largely fine and certainly shouldnt be moved down.

I cant think of a single vehicle where the stock grind isnt a pain.

Its literally designed to be a pain so you spend money on GE to skip some/all of it

also any tips like when t use the missiles what range yk type stuff

The game gives you all the information you need regarding ranging.

R-73 though is always your short range SRAAM. I think typically you want to use them within 1.5-2km to get the most out of the IRCCM. Use with the HMD to win a lot of dogfights that the FM alone wouldnt normally allow you to win

R-27ETs are your long ranged IR weapons, very potent in rear-aspect due to their speed or firing at something distracted, but will often go for flares, so not a guranteed kill.

R-27ERs are extremely powerful SARH weapons, easily the best SARH in-game, and on par with early Fox-3s. Id say generally dont fire much past 15-20km though. Once you get more confident with them you can fire them at a target, then switch off your radar and then when the missile is closer, switch it back on and resume guiding it, which reduces the warning the target gets

but read the guide above, and pay attention to things like the rMax and LSZ and you’ll be fine

Giving information based upon spaded performance, because stock performance is always bad and its like judging a book by its cover, but the R-27R/Ts are just shorter ranged versions

Okay? Doesn’t change to flank around the map, fire at unsuspecting players. Oh, ground pound gives you plenty of RP, taking out MiG 15s/A-4s gives you RP and pads your stats.

Russian flankers are meta at every tier

Trust me, the Su-27S is very good

Stock is hard in any jet…BUT are you telling us that if we watch your Server Replays…you are playing Very Very well keeping your energy up and not positioning in bad spots on the map??? 95% to top tier jets is putting your jet in the right place and watching what your team is doing on the map!

I’m looking forward to the SU33, the r27er seems so fun and you carry like, 12 of em? the dream…

I watched a replay, Respectfully I would say…work on notching ( XD I could as well) (lots of Good YouTube videos) and pay very close attention to your RWR and the direction of threat!!!..everyone gets got by missiles even the Pros!..practice, practice practice! The big thing is to NOT give up!..Iron Within, Iron Without!!!

Thing is you cant really always rely on notching, especially if servers are having their bi-hourly hiccups, or when its Mr. Worldwide with 3 trillion ping going against you lol

the % amount of times lag will kill you in a Notch…thats got to crazy low…we are assuming X/Y player is playing on usable internet for a PvP game :/ trying to pawn off Notching not working cuz the server lags…you get the PL every so often…but not every game!

Im playing with gigabit up/down fiber, the amount of times lag/these servers being absolute trash has killed me is atleast 20% of the time in notching

How? It’s the best way to grind?

recommending multipath is bad advice

relying on gambling is not a good idea, ever

Eh, you’re right. Server lag.

Su-27 and su-33 is those type of vehicle that if you get an uptier you’re probably going to have a very bad time but will absolutely slaughter everyone in a downtier

Nah, flankers are incredibly uptier-proof

R-27ERs are just that strong
