What is the empty weight of the Su-30SM right now?
18.4t according to the datamine
Seems to be accurate then
Su-30MKI is also 18.4 tons empty
@ron_2303 did a bug report about the 3D inaccuracies of the su30sm, might be good idea to also include this (the wrong tail and flaperons)
Literally spend zero effort in modeling lol
It, honestly, so weird that 30SM having this modeling issues while same Su-33, for isntance, have IIRC correctly modeled area around it canards and wings
(and a screenshot by BBCRF of Su-30SM on dev for comparison)
Poor QC/QA.
added it to the bug report

damn
there were other bug reports, but they were less elaborate and others that were accepted, but I didn’t include them either because i didn’t think it was necessary, lol
How gaijin can even justify this… AIM-7P vs R-77-1. (R77-1 are bleeding speed unrealistically and need to be fixed in DEV) : r/Warthunder
Almost like 1 person actually conducted evasive maneuvers to bleed the missile of energy, while the other flew straight into it like an idiot… strange…
to be fair, the su30sm shot the r77-1 from 30km away and it was flying very low compared to the f18 at 4000m of alt… it makes sense that the r77-1 couldn’t hit this, it wasted all its energy going up + turning
Multipath just ate all of his braincells.
Yea that was a terrible shot/play by the flanker. But the missile was already losing way too much speed even before the F-18 did any maneuvers. When the F-18 crank for like 3 second and the R-77-1 lose half it speed.
