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

I guess for an update Russia had the best Radar.
Im not sure why you are critical of Gaijin giving the Rafale an AESA radar.

I never said anything that would indicate I was being critical of the Rafale receiving an AESA.

An Su-35S is pictured, and unless you mean to tell me that they were making brochures for the Su-27M in 2008, marketing it with imagery that is interestingly similar to the Su-35S and making claims that are very in-line with the N035’s capabilities.

They are? Your “sources” are magazines and tabloids…

it was Su-35 aka T-10BM. BM has nothing in common with Su-27M.

I’m having a goodtime carrying 2 of them :D, as for the ET’s I only carry those when it’s not cloudy everywhere.

It is nice to fire them on a clear day at planes that don’t have MAWS or have it turned off, but the amount of clouds… I hate the weather.

Yep, I usually keep them for high alt F-15’s, they are generally so boiling hot that the tracking is pretty nice.

Even better if they are notching. Huge IR target.

Then pls tell me what version of the Su27sm is in the game currently bc AFAIK it isn’t a sm1, sm2 or sm3.
It has the upgraded engines and double pylons from the sm3 and the radar from the sm1

Fictional

SM3 doesnt have double pylon. It have additional pylon under wing, like Su-33.

SM and SM(3) have same radar.

SM2 and SM3 received the IRBIS-E Radar.

sm3 definitely didn’t, while sm2 is not a production variant

No. Irbis was on Su-27SM2 but with reduced power. But not SM(3).

Putting Irbis on planes that are at least 15 years old is not very sensible.

Yeah right. Was a translation error on my side. SM2 got the IRBIS-E and the Su-27SM3 retains the original N-001V radar.

If su27sm2 use IRBIS-E so which version of su27 use N001VEP-PERO?

If su27sm3 dont have 12 pylons I love to see its will be add like an upgrade pack for su27sm become su27sm3
