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

[Speaking only in the perspective of Sim]

Any minute now I say. First gen Su-35 confirmed for this patch, and TVC does not change much and with fox 3s implemented players will just have to play according to their doctrine.

The first generation of the Flanker is already lethal in an extremely slow dogfight in its current state in the game even though it is underperforming severely. Now some theorize the reasoning for the hard handicap on the Flanker is that if it were to perform as it properly would, it would absolutely dominate both in current bvr state using fox 1s and even harder in dogfights which honestly sounds fair given how if you are experienced in the Flanker you can really kick some extreme ass but this is an extremely sorry excuse to not let the plane perform 100% as it should.

But what less can you expect from a community who will whine whine and whine until something gets nerfed because taking the time to learn how to counter something is just not something the common individual in this community can find themselves doing… EVER.

Now for the main question, a Flanker with TVC would only make this slow fight advantage better for the Flanker given its flight model is properly implemented, but it’s nothing game breaking as long as bluefor pilot knows what they are doing.

Does anybody know how to keep a constant G overload through different speeds? I am testing out the acceleration while pulling 3G. So far I am just trying to use the joystick, but it is imprecise. I float around 2.8 and 3.3 G. Is there a better way to do it?

It is impossible in its current flight model I believe. You will either over g or pull less than you want.

His flight model is just disgusting

What do you mean by first generation Su-35? You may be thinking about Su-27M which we are not getting in this update.


Su-35 first generation

Su-27Sm is the first gen su-35

It’s a low budget upgrade package for the aging su27s that are in service. The su 35 Is derived from another prototype based on the su27.

No. I believe you are confused.

The Su-27SM is the first generation of the Su-35 series.

Su-27SM2 is the second generation.

Su-27SM3 is the third generation.

Su-35S is the fourth and final generation of the Su-27 & Su-35 series.

Ok nvm you are trolling.

So guys, this is not really related to the flanker, but as we are getting into more modern aviation stuff, i think it would interesting for the community to start pushing for the EC mode. Ppl talk about reducing players in air rb but it seems they completely forgot about the EC idea, i’ve tried to find a suggestion about it but i wasn’t successful.

Excuse me? Haha, ur trolling.

Why are you being ignorant?

It is kinda logical like putting 1 and 1 together equaling 2. 🤔

Su-27SM is a middle life upgrade to the old Su-27. Where do you take the first generation Su-35 from??

no

There was no such aircraft

no

It is a MLU and?

That does not take away the fact that it lead up to the Su-35S…

What are the main differences between Su27 and Su27sm? Better engines? IRST looks smaller, is it worse?

Yes.

Ignorant.

Ignorant… Again.

The Su-27 in game is the Su-27S. The SM is a modernized version that on the surfaces changes the radar, IRST, and gives it the ability to fire the R-77.

Modern MFDS, new FCS with improved radar and EO along with SPO-29 and the ability to use a very wide range of new weapons.

L-150. L-150-27 to be exact. SPO-29, SPO-32, etc are some made up names.
