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

Oh, forgot about that change, you are right.

And worse radar.

well, damn, I don’t know shit

yup, only 1 datalink on that radar… man, i cannot wait for the j-11b to save chinese flankers

They could do all of like 10 iterations of the J-11B though as it got so many modifications over the years lmao. Gaijin’s got so many options for China going forward, will be interesting to see if they keep holding them back or not.

Can’t wait for J-11B with “Type 1474 radar” with two datalink channels, firing PL-5EII instead of PL-8B, be 700 kilograms heavier than Su-27SK instead of lighter, and Gaijin will model it with AL-31F instead of WS-10.

In all seriousness though, J-11B might be the first decent Flanker in terms of flight performance (even though the current FM has issues) solely because of its weight loss and more thrust per engine (~135 KN of thrust with full AB).

I mean they could add the j11b with the al31 as they did exist. I wouldn’t be mad about it, all I care about is the radar upgrade

The RWR is realistic and far too accurate for all nations.

Yeah… But that was only first production batch. I want the extra thrust.

Be happy that your radar and RWR work at the same time

Ah, those secret documents…

Bringing this to a more relevant thread but whats your source on the Su-34 not having an RWR?

Seems the internet is all ocer the place on the subject;

  • Some sites claim L150 Pastel
  • Others claim RWR is provided by L175 Khibiny EW complex
  • Some claim both provide RWR
  • Some declare it has MAWS, but just call it “generic MAWS”

Etc…

In general, Id be very surprised if it didnt have an RWR, but I havent found any actual reliable source on the subject at all.
