Sukhoi Su-27/30/33/35/37 Flanker series & Su-34 Fullback - History, Design, Performance & Dissection (Part 1)

Rafale can do that too if the Radar was modelled correctly.
as will Typhoon with Captor E

ofc we can, and i will be absolutely sure that someone will still complain that a certain triangle is “underperforming”

true russia is not able to build manouverable jets, they only build missile busses

and on airshows?
they are clearly removing all avionics from it

To be fair, on airshows aircrafts do tend to be loaded with least weight possible, it’s an airshow after all. But Gaijin just refuses to properly, or at least consistently model aircrafts in the game so we have what we have.

the thing is you cant really remove avionics and stuff from the aircraft as it would shift the center of mass
the only way you can controll weight on an aircraft (even for airshows) is the fuel load

Absolute cringe discussion (like 90% of wt forum discussions)

Proved that it is and the nerfs to the fm but sure bro gaslight me

Yes, that is true. From my understanding airshow models just have loaded weight in such places, for security reasons. But they tend to have just enough fuel for a program (or at least the least amount you can load without messing up the center mass.

You brought this upon yourself.

Why is eft cancer being discussed here

Started with R-77-1 being able to hit 180 shots and then devloved into this.

Look guys we know the controversy around EFT performance but shouting at other tree mains won’t help correcting the aircraft, let’s avoid repeating that Rafale fanboy that i forgot the name fiasco here…

HM, so high speed performance does feel accurate, but low speed is completely off. If i pull 8G at 800 in a flanker with this load if will fall from the air

yeah iirc low speed performance isnt correct

could be a lack of lift or something idk

Judging by this chart Su-27 should be absolutely goated at speeds close to mach 1

iirc it is IAS tho so you need to make the conversion

and that chart is for the 27SK so you would need to compare it to the J-11 ingame

It’s because once the community discovered they were using t10 documents to model the su-27, the devs got absolutely trashed on, but instead of doing a proper job they just decreased drag and called it a day. Su-27 overperforms at high speeds and this was already reported but it appear they just don’t care at all.

yeah it is still behaving exactly the same, but 1 to 2 degrees per second better

Yeah, but you still have altitude curves, so you don’t necessarily need to know your TAS (i use both HUD elements personally)
