Comrades, did they really do the unthinkable? Did they buff the flanky?
Yeah, it feels a lot better now.
Yes they buff it, now feels almost like F-16, really.
Ok now i’m reaaaaaaaaaaally excited, i’m going to download the update right here right now

I need to test more, but it feels better than F-15C now definitely
Keep in mind my testing is with J-11, which is approx 500kg heavier than Su-27S
Su-27SM even gets a better engine now.

A tech mod I know told me this
not a direct buff, more like backend improvements to TVC behavior
But it seems there are still issues with TVC

It still lacks a functional radar and actual missiles, but at least it flies now.
At least it’s good news for the future flankers, be it Su35 or Su30.
Now if they could fix the Mig29 as well. I guess we’ll have to wait for an update to the Fulcrum family with a new variant.

I wouldn’t go that far.
Flanker (and many other aircrafts) need fix for radar scan pattern and that will be enough imo
Just waiting for this @Grimtax issue to actually pass to devs

MiG-29 needs war thrust setting added to the game.
I’m curious, what do you mean by that ? Do the N001 have access to other pattern than the current fixed one ? It’s one of my main issue with the SM since the SMT get both narrow and wider pattern which are very useful.
EDIT : oh I read the report and I see what you means. The scan rate is incorrect.
Bro is posting from a future where we have the SM3

I meant that the FBW will not allow you to overload more than 9 in the high-speed mode and 7 in supersonic mode
Wasn’t this improved on Su-35 and Su-30MKK?
Or am I remembering wrong
These aircraft have improved durability and there is no dip at transonic speed
I see.
Oh, ok.
What I was talking about is very low speed bleed at supersonic speeds.
About -10 km/h each second while turning at 12 G at ~1200 km/h (sea lvl, 20 min fuel, pylons with no missiles).
Not as close as actual F-16, but I must say, it can contest F-15 now instead of failing after one circle.
Still only part of the problem. No vertical tracking in TWS is another one.
