SU30SM wrong engine thrust(solved)

SU30SM thrust doesnt correspond the the real thrust of its AL-31FP engines in the Dev server. Both engines have a max afterburner thrust of 11.660kgf, although if u check a couple of sources, you can find out that its real thrust is actually 122.6 kN (12.500kgf). Looking at the fact that the SU30 is a heavier 2 seater aircraft, i dont see a reason to set the thrust to a lower value given the heavier weight that its got. To prove the my point, ive attached a couple of sources about the specs of its engines and honestly if Gajin wants their game to be realistic, then they should think about adjusting the thrust again before releasing it because honestly russia needs some tweaks to be top tier competetive again, it hasnt been doing too good lately.

P.S: Trust me, sooner or later someone will release unwanted files.

Very XD and also very real

The engine thrust is correct.
Su-30SM produces more than 12500kgf per engine in-flight.

Your claim doesn’t cite speed, installed or not, or otherwise; so without context any speed in-game that produces that or more thrust is proof of correct unless otherwise specified by your claims.

Wikipedia isn’t a source.

Over 12600kgf per engine at speed.

Su-30SM is already going to be a competitive if not meta 14.0 despite its slower acceleration compared to other jets.

In that case im terribly sorry for spreading misinformation, i guess the picture of the engines thrust is outdated.

Try to avoid wiki for sources.
