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

I think India should just get it’s own tech tree instead of only getting a few vehicles in the British TT whenever gaijin wants to give it a new premium or another 10.3 AA

India should have it’s own tech tree. I think if the Indian market showed the interest that Chinese player base had they would.

But if that doesnt happen the Su-30MKI should go to Britain as they represent India in game.
Currently Indian vehicles Britain have are some Soviet era SAMs, a Squadron T-90S, MiG 21 (missing the R-77 it should have) and an event Jaguar.

If India is a British sub tree (which it is) then they need to start receiving vehicles that fill gaps and increase capabilities

The su30 wouldn’t fill any gaps tho,
It would just be another top-tier like the EF and Gripen which are already present in the British TT.

On top of that, why would you need to grind any other TT when you can get everything in Britain, right?
That would be a stupid desicion on gaijin’s side, because atleast for top tier vehicles ppl don’t have to grind as many TTs anymore because everything is going to be in the British TT.

And if India isn’t getting its own TT we probably will not see alot of its vehicles like some of its Mig21 variants, or its Mig29k’s or even the mig35,
just because the British TT doesn’t need them.

The Yak141 should also have the r73 and r77.
It is nothing new that some aircraft are missing their historical loadouts (looking at you Mig29)

Fire and forget ground attack missiles would be nice and if and when we get modern Naval Brahmos
Typhoon does everything that any other British jet should do. It’s the perfect multirole aircraft.
But they are not a huge ammount of versions they can add, next upgrade would be be Meteor/Brimstone 3 and AESA Radar. After that it’s F-35

Well it’s better to have them ingame than not added, Russia will almost certainly recieve the MiG 35/MiG 29K/KR. The 21 variants as they have modernised the 21s should also get them.

Su-30MKI uses Western/Indian Avionics and (in some cases weapon systems we dont have the Astra in game yet) that makes it unique enough not to go to the Russian tree.

British players will of course benefit from these additions. Indian players or players interested in Indian hardware will not want to be treated like the Canadian/Autrailian player base who have to play multiple nations and cannot put together an OZ/Canadian lineup as the systems are spread between various trees.

Not against that, now we have passed the (it’s experimental argument) would be cool to see it recieve it’s correct ordinance and one day to operate off the Minsk

But they got to add something

Like maybe not a Rafale but something is going to come because you don’t add a sub tree just to add a Mig-21

Would also be nice if we would get the ‘modern’ carriers outside of the test drive and actually in game.

For Example, if you are a sim player there are a few maps with carriers but most of the time it’s an older one which makes it really hard to land on them with bigger aircraft (I.e. F14 Su33).

yeah I agree with you, just hold it for at least 1 update, it won’t do any harm since the British tt already has the EF as a top tier jet, russia still lacks a 14.0 jet

Anyone knows if the inner texture of the engine on the Su-34 is supposed to be covered by the yellow flame texture? Because in the dev server it looked more like the engines of the Su-27 (where the yellow flame is behind the inner engine texture)

This is how it is supposed to look like:

It looks damn nice, I hope they’ll eventually model them like that someday.

The Yak-141 shouldn’t have been added to the game

So the F15e, but they are in the game now and we have to live with it.

how paper-made plane related to plane that existed IRL?

Is the F-15E a paper plane?

we have f20/m4k

They also shouldn’t be in the game.

Yak-141 is not that a problem as fictional aircraft compare to F-16AJ. I wouldn’t have any problem with Yak-141 if gaijin added it properly without IRST, R-60M etc
