Mind that is circa 2020 pack premium. It was 9.7 on release and 3BM42 had only 2mm less pen than Leopard 2A5 at that time. It certainly wasnt fun going against LRF+2nd (or 3rd gen? dunno) thermals+3BM42 combo with things like A1A1 (was 8.7 back then). It was absolute diddler in downtier back then.
hm, interesting question, but it will be highly subjective and people will downplay the effectivness of their favorite vehicle from their favorite nation no matter what, and overestimate the effectivness of vehicles I hate. I know for sure that I wouldnt be able to separate such opinion from my bias.
That being said, no matter the people claiming Su-30MK2 being good or bad, it has some objective qualities over its BR contemporaries, and some of these qualities matter more than its downsides.
That was more or less my point someone will always have a differing opinion.
Imo the Su-27 and 33 have no right at 13.0 with the Mig 29G but the BR’s are so compressed its pretty rough in a full uptier without a good map for using multipath with only 45x CM on the 33
Mavs cant be launched outside of the range of BR appropriate SPAAs, unlike Kh38MT which up until very recently outranged effective range of every SPAA bar Pantsir (inb4 Pantsir missile loses energy at longer distances, as if same issue doesnt apply to every other SPAA)
the agm65 out range my osa and 2s6, and yes the a10 can stay outside of the 10km spaa and launch agm, and i destroy them, then i am out of ammo, i use the box, i am ready, he launch again, and i got no more missile
How are you dying to Mavericks that are being launched 10 km away? On an A-10 of all things? That’s impossible, it can’t fly high or fast enough for the Mavs to make it that far. 10 km launched Mavericks are one of the slowest missiles in the game, you have ample time to intercept and get out of the way of the missile.
AGM-65A/B effective range is 6km.
AGM-65D/G range from an A-10 is 11km, otherwise it’s 17km from a mach 0.9 mach jet, or 19+km from a 1.3 mach jet.
Su-30MK2 has no such missiles, it’s garbage in ground battles compared to other weapon systems.
Why would I spawn Su-30MK2 when I can bring Su-24M and a lower BR ground lineup?
For comparison, Kh-38MT released from carrier going at mach 1 at 4800m alt, launched from 13km (ie. 1km behind VT-1 ABSOLUTE range) will reach target in 26 secs with impact speed of mach 1.40.
well we inherently cant get rid of it, so it kinda blows. But find yourself a person on this forum who can admit his bias too and youd be surprised about the quality of conversations one can have on this god forsaken site.
Yeah I gotta agree ehre, the 29G should either move down or get some breathing room.
It sucks it’s stuck at a BR where there are objectively better planes.
I never really struggled with pantsir, always teh damn ITO’s that got me, somehow.
the mirage F1 200 / C is not a poor platform FM wise.
issue is the radar which for some odd reason they decided the MTI can only be used in specific vectors and heights.
Which BTW was only on the M model, the MLD and MLA should both have access to it flat out and be 12.0
