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

The export name of the Su-35 is not the export version of the Su-35S

Nerfing all Flanker FMs is actually insane lmfao

Do you know if there are any public sources stating the detection range for 36Ш-01?

I found these brochures for Su-35 and MiG-35:

ОЛС


13СМ-1


But the one for 36Ш does not have ranges listed, for some reason:

36Ш


Do you know if 36Ш-01 have better detection range compared to OLS-27? Or is it just a reliability and ground attack capability upgrade?

Oh, do Su-30MKI and Su-30MKK use 36Ш-01 too?

i think so,
it says for Su-30 and its modifications

It has improved capabilities compared to the OLS-27

Making an 1100 kph max speed aircraft go 1450 kph is peak Gaijin

I love when my already pretty bad top tier flight model gets even more nerfed while everything else gets buffed!

Su-34E != Su-34. I think answer will be like this.

Yeah, probably!

Spoiler

And before someone calls it Russian bias, it’s up there with AIM-54A which should have 27.63 kg TNT equivalent, instead of the current 60.54 kg …

But getting the speed wrong by such a drastic amount (1100 kph vs 1450 kph) does not cease to amaze me …

Su-30SM’s top speed is also probably too high, but will have to wait for it to come to the live server.

Su-30SM barely touches Mach 1.7 on clean config btw, and only after using the whole map at 10km alt

It’s really dogshit

Su-30SM already have its right Vne nor Su-34 data on websites is actually correct

My dude

One website is the official export agency of the Russian government (Mach 1.45 / 1100 kph)

The other is the company that manufactures the aircraft (1500 kph / 1100 kph)

And for the sake of completeness, here’s the FSVTS (Federal Service for Military-Technical Cooperation) listing for Su-32:

https://www.fsvts.gov.ru/catalog/689.en.html (Which lists Mach 1.5 / 1100 kph)

What is your source that Su-34 should be able to go Mach 1.98 at altitude and 1450 kph on the deck?

I’m sorry, but this is a new height of absurdity …

Doesn’t game has multiplier for Vne? 1.05 or around this.

This is not Vne

We are talking about maximum speed (at level flight)

And 1450 kph / 1100 kph = 1.318

That’s quite a chunky multiplier!

I was replying to Su-30SM message.

Even for Su-30SM, I’m not claiming it’s the Vne (though it very well might be).
I was talking about maximum speed in level flight, but I was checking the speed for that one from statshark, since it’s not on live yet …

Also Su-30SM and Su-30SME are entirely different aircrafts, so sources for SME are not applicable to SM.
