Sure, everyone wants it nerfed anyways
The sustained rates on the EF-2000/Rafale are science fiction. Took them longer than a year to bring the Gripen down to from the best rate fighter to where it is now, and immediately after doing that they add the EF and the Rafale rating 1-2 dgs better than the F-16. Wild shit. And yeah the F-16 is definitely still pulling too much AoA.
But this is the Flanker thread. All we can do is be honest about the Su-30SM’s woeful BFM profile.

They can nerf arh numbers, tvc is more disadvantages than advantages, it climbs worse than a 27SM cause it’s heavier and has worse engine
In fact let’s just nerf it to hell and give it N001, that would make you happy no?

funny thing is that the su-30 should have a twr over 1
funny thing is that the su-30 should be one of the best if not the best BFM fighter in the game
the su-35 should be alot better because of the AL-41
yeah its still sad that the flanker fm is still completly wrong even after the buff
because they didnt change it to the real life flanker fm but just decreased the drag and called it a day

IK but ppl are complaining exactly because of 1v1s, for me these are not relevant for the current meta but i understand that some want to have fun in custom matches, for that it would be interesting to fix the western overperforming aircraft.
That said i believe the su-30sm performance is more than enough to compete in current air rb meta…
Cant take this approach seriously.
Btw anyone noticed it’s harder to do a kulbit now with 30% fuel with empty racks?
I didn’t have that much difficulty in .31 iirc
the problem the sim comunity has rn is, that the su30 isnt contolable in full real anymore at slow speeds, it isnt really the flight performance itself but the handling
And that’s the issue, let me revive this old thread made by our good old comrade Giovanex Many top tier aircraft are overperforming in energy retention
We can complain all we want about russian jets performing worse, it’s not the russian jets that are underperforming but the western ones that are overperforming…

Nor can I say the same to you. It’s mid, always be mid, EFT and F-15E will still be dominant.
well where tf is my TWR of 1 in the su-30 then
below min fuel and with no ordnance, i’m afraid
yeah they probably fly with 15% fuel on those airshows and with all their avionics removed, right?
right?
he is perhaps the only one who could fix/improve the su30sm fm D:

Are you high
go post a manual to prove him wrong
… i know you want to do it
I mean, I’d assume they keep the avionics on, but no demo flight is done with a combat load of either fuel or weapons lol
That thing is super new to the game and it brought a new mechanic with it (TVC), knowing how lazy this company is it’ll take them a long time to make it reasonably close to reality, that’s why i said weeks before the update how messy this plane would be.
But talking about the other russian jets, they are much closer to reality than the western ones, specially the mig29 on which ppl swear to this day that it’s underperforming even though it matches all of the charts… Guess what happens when you put a correctly made vehicle against a fantasy ufo?
