Su-30MK2 is not uniquely powerful

MK and j11 have the same radar

They got rid of the VEP from Mk2?

lemme check

Nope, MK has VEP, it gets slightly more lock range in HDN and additional DL channel

ah ok my bad

Difference is very minor tbf, extra lock range it beyond 80km and you aren’t firing anything that far.

That is an opportunity to learn wasted, then, as has become evident.
I sure do love having a missile turning worse than r77 and yet having same level of energy retention on maneuvering targets. Sure it is better than 120 and thus more meta, no arguments there, and even more so in TSS circles.

Oh and also dont even get me started on this crap https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CKI5w12F-X8
Yes, it does happen to this day.
Yes, I personally have confirmed encounters with this on avg. every 30-40ish shots.
It is still, somehow, a thing.
Not helping.
(theres an open report on this btw)

J11a has only 1 dl channel.

Tbh my little experience with derby is just weird, it doesn’t seem to pull very well, it’s very slow, and it always cries and it has lacking range

Sea Harrier FA2 Is all i’m going to say. Everyone and there bloody uncle gets so much crap but lil o’l UK over there get crap like that.

To begin with, expecting much from the MKK Classic Flanker series, including the MK2, is misguided since they’re essentially downgraded versions of the SM and others. Besides, plenty of players are achieving great results using this BR aircraft with its current performance. It’s definitely not weak across the board.

It’s literally the best 13.3 plane in the game

while having a CAS loadout superior to the Su-27SM (which sits at 12.7 grb) at 12.3

please
use your brain

Jeez and I thought of tailsmanning it.

Not a problem, just replace your R-77s with Napalm

No they aren’t, R-77’s are best in close range due to their high speed and high agility. To compare, the AIM-120A/B are only really useful in the same situation, with worse maneuverability.

Now there is also a Chinese Su-30MKK with even better PL-12’s at the same BR, and they should both be 13.7 or possibly 14.0.

14.0 would be too high without broader decompression since both premium Su-30 have weaker engines than, say, Su-27SM

But 13.7 would be perfectly acceptable and they should have been at that BR from the release

Yeah, 14.0 with decompression for sure.

how would gaijin be able to farm money from undertiered premiums then
