With option to flash/etc
But yes
The representation of it in DCS is inaccurate?
It just old and from FC2
Prob new MiG-29 will be with accurate one

Gotcha thanks so much for the info :D Good day, Kit!
no. The R-27EA was canceled in favor of the R-77. The R-27EA/ER is a very heavy 353kg missile against 175. The R-77 appeared as a response to the American AMRAAM. Potentially, the P-77 could accept more carriers and they could also be placed more, because the load on the supply point was less

Su-30SM would be 14.3
Su-27SM3, Su-30SM, Su-30SME, Su-30SM2, MiG-29K R (9-41), MiG-29SMT (9-19), Su-35S, MiG-35 and Su-57
Lack R-73M

Idk why, but the idea of that our 29SMT could get another ordinance “upgrade” is very funny for me
Isnt difference between R-73 and R-73M is literally R-73M have greater range?
Can’t the SU-30 technically mount the R-37?
Compared to Python 4 ?
I think lack R-73M and R-77-1, but after decompression to 14.0
Removed R-27R & R-27T only
Sorry. But i don’t know in what bases you can said that it will be 14.3. The plane use the same engine as other Vanilla Su-27 just with TVC, i don’t even think it can use the new engine that gaijin put on Su-33/Su-34 or Su-27sm. And if nothing its heavy; Canard, Two-seat, TVC. All of them add weight to the plane. Even with R-77-1 it will never be the first plane on the line doing BVR, that its not happening. Sure it will turn better, even better than the Su-33 or Su-27sm. And it will have a better radar too, but even that radar its not close to an AESA or the Captor-m when they finale fixed that thing. So it will be just a “rat fighter”.
Don’t even talk about other missile. Because if gaijin add a new missile for the Su-30sm other nations will cry for they stuff. Like aim9x or mica-ir. That conversation its out of the Windows. Even R-77-1 its pushing it.

Between each other (especially since we dont have Python 4 to compare with, sooo)
What I’ve found, the su-30sm uses the same engines as the 34 and the now updated su-27sm just with thrust vectoring. It doesn’t use the su-27s engines as they were never given the option of tvc. I would love to see the su-37 though as it uses different tvc engines producing more thrust than the engines on the su-35, it would be a cool aircraft to add and it would also fix the radar issue with most of the flankers in game as it uses a pesa radar
At present, no R-77-1 / RVV-SD model
MiG-29SMT (9-19), Su-27SM3, MiG-29KR, Su-30SM2, Su-35S and MiG-35
Because Su-30SM carries 10 R-77 & R-77-1 max and AL-31FP Engines with 3D Thrust-Vectoring great manoeuvrebility at low speed
Improved IRCCM and 60° off-boresight
I suppose close to R-74M
I’m well aware, I said the name “T-72” was no longer appealing especially after 1991. Take your time reading.
The fact that the thrust to weight will be worse than Su-27SM is why I think it is not going to be that strong in air RB, possibly worse then the Su-27SM itself if radar scan pattern gets fixed. Without missiles that have NO PLACE currently in game like the R-37M a better radar gives marginal returns (EFT for example still smokes everything despite the radar being currently worse than the F-16C one).

Su-30SM can.
pliz don’t talk about T-90. I’m still mad that gaijin hasn’t add the Obj187. This is why i don’t trust gaijin. Its been 4 years since T-90a has being add to the game and still no Obj-187. Or any “early” armata, like obj-195.
Anyone that has done BVR, know that the faster you go to 8k+ and near 1.5 on speed the more chance for the missile to hit someone, SPECIALY if you are the first one that start shooting missile… Even if the radar is bad… That its why even despite RAFALE using MICA. You can skill out range F-15 and Eurofighter. When MICA its suppose to be worst than aim120. Rafale right now has stupid acceleration the thing its like a Mig21bis on Steroids.
So if the Su-30sm still use the Su-27 engine its will be DOA for BVR. Being a good dogfighter won’t make it 14.0 material. @EbAR_nN3AA has said that it should use Su-27sm/su-34 engine. But i haven’t found info about that. But even if it get that engine i don’t think it will be much difference. Because Su-27SM is still lacking when you compare it with EFT/RAFALE or Some F-15 variants.
Why???.It was Yeltsin’s political decision to rename the tank (the first tank in service with the New Russia)…You’ve probably seen the video from Syria, if the Army doesn’t want to fight, no one will force it to do so.
