Thats fair its a cloee battle between those 2!
Didn’t say that, I said the Typhoon has its own advantages over the Su-30, the incredible flight performance.

Which is primarliy its TWR. Does the 27SM have AL-41s ingame?
No, it has Al-31F somethings. So again, nothing to do with the Su-30 and Typhoon
30 never flew with none TVC engines?
What?
That’s not how it works. You have to consider a lot of stuff before calling something unbalanced or so. Back when they added Apex Predators f-14s had 6 radar missiles while MiG-29 had 2, would that mean that the game was unbalanced? Not really (in fact it was unbalanced towards american jets cuz that 2 missiles the 29 have are monsters).
In the case of the su-30sm although it gets a absurd amount of pretty good missiles, the platform isn’t that good (it’s a much heavier su-27 with the same engines), and that accounts a lot for the performance of the missile you’ll launch.

It does the problem is team size and late to mid game a Su-30 just dumping loads of missiles at a single target.
F-15s do it too. I struggle to see how when we come to F-15EX and Su-35 how we are going to balance the game for Typhoons, Gripens etc
My fear is we increase missile quality.
R-77M, Aim120C5
And maybe new IIR missiles
Meteor missiles, Typhoons will do perfectly fine at minimum
30MKK has no TVC afaik, but that’s the KnAAPO Su-30 not the Irkut one

They couldnt make Meteors work on the map sizes we have game needs to change a lot
Unfortunately it is what it is and nothing can be done about it, it’ll only get worse in that sense (missile spam). That’s why i prefer to not go beyond 90s tech, i find early 4th gen aicraft combat more interesting.

I do enjoy the Tornado least the Radar works ha ha
Unfortunately it also has to do with Airframe sizes. Do understand the likes of the F-15E and Su-27 family are heavy multiroles in the sense and this ofc mean they’re also massive, and being massive means more hard points and therefore pylons
sure just give the su35 6xr37m
It’s better to fly out the su35s with 4 r37ms and 4 r77s, 2 of the r37ms would take away the double r77 pylon
the su35 can carry 4xr37m + 8 xr77-1 + 2xr73 or 6xr37m+4xr77-1+2xr73
