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?
AFAIK Yes.
The R-27EM does have the same seeker as R-77 doesn’t it? Should it be possible to use the R-27EM against air targets?
Doesnt it just a enchanced seeker 27ER?
A lot of resources states that enchanced seeker, for better intercept of sea skimming targets?
It should be quite a bit different from ER.
Yes it is.
It should be for Air target but not much info about the primary target it will be used again.
Production number also unknown.
IIRC there was an image of Su-35UB with R-27EA and R-27ER

R-27EA is not quite the same as EM either.
I thought there was no SU-35 variant with canards. I see no tailhook so it likely is not SU-33.
Perhaps SU-30?
No it doesn’t
That’s all R-27ER mockups

Can it be used against air targets?
If it existed in something more than prototypes of seeker, yes
It should be a service missile on SU-33…
That’s internet myth
Do you have any sources to read up on the developement of that missile?

May I make a request?
Could you in your spare time check the radar on Su-27SM in game datamines?
İs it improved in terms of notch etc?
Or is it just copy paste su-27 radar with more range, just like how su-27 radar was copy paste mig-29 radar with more range.
No difference between the N001 and N001VEP when it comes to notch speeds.
