Su-30SM2: The Ultimate Su-30 gets even better

lets not pretend that gaijin doesnt have a habit of releasing any flanker as underperforming and then just fixing it months later when they all of a sudden realize they have “accidentally” been using the wrong sources (their original source was “i made it tf up”)

also id like to point out theyre still happily giving the premiums their kh59s but for the russian tech tree one theyre still nowhere to be found despite the report having been accepted since previous major

pretty much every time anyone questions gaijin for their questionable source selection
like at least live up to it and say its for balance instead of lying about it lol

SU-30SM2 with AL-41F1S bug report has been accepted in russian.
https://community.gaijin.net/issues/p/warthunder/i/NtSaZ2Tyep54

althought no SU-30SM2 are/were ever pictured wth al-41fs, there is evidence that the testbed su-30sm could mount them (althought its not the same engine as su-35 uses iirc.)
anyways, wether or not su-30sm2 will be added with new engines s really up to guessing. it COULD theorically fit them and use them, but no su-30sm variants other than the testbed (with ONE al-41fs and one al-31f) were really documented/tested

Su-24M got them. Not like there is a use for them then you get only 2 and Kh-29T outclasses them (including by ability to carry 3 of them)

still funny to skill check some irist player with them. 60% of the time it works all the time. something just being fun should be enough of a reason to add something to a game

Eh, you still need to get closer to actually use them somewhat accurately, otherwise just toss GNSS bombs their way. Shame they are this small, would love to have Chinese 1000kg chonkers in Soviet TT

Let them cry in the forum until they can’t take it anymore; after all, they’re doing the same thing now over a simple Abrams for china, they did the same thing over the turret basket, they did the same thing over the F-15E engine. Just let them have their endless complaints.
