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

RVV-AE also has a laser fuse…
Fuses:

  • remote active laser with adaptation to the size of the target being hit;
  • duplicate contact fuse-self-destruct;
  • fuses are cocked at a distance of 150-300 m from the carrier aircraft and ensure maximum damage to the target by elements of the warhead;
    The option is a classic remote radar fuse.

As far as i know R-77-1 comes by defacto with laser fuse , only R-77 was initially proposed with radar fuse ( frontal section is completely smooth ) so the absence of laser fuse from those under central pylons of the 30SM indicates they are R-77.

As ZVO mentioned R-77 did also come with laser fuse so if all missiles had laser fuse the only reliable differentiating factor would be to look at the fairing around the grid fins.

RVV-AE /R-77


RVV-SD / R-77-1

The R-77-1 is available in two versions with a different fuse

The Irbis-E radar exists on the Su-30SM2

have imgs?

I don’t have photos, but I definitely saw information about it

In this case if both planes got almost equal characteristics what is the point of producing Su-30SM2 and Su-35S simultaneously?

I think there are reasons for this that I don’t know about.

They got improved Bars

Navy loves two-seaters

Why just don’t unificate them in engines, radar and etc? And produce only one plane in single and twin seat version.

You would have to unificate factories at first. Su-35 is KnAAZ, Su-30 is Irkut. If just drop Su-30 production, Su-35 production won’t increase.

Is it correct that SU-33 never got R-77?
