Only other plane in USSR TT which can get thrust vectoring is Su-27SM if I am correct.

I am pretty sure all MIG 29s can Thrust vector IRL.

But isn’t that just the FCS? Should TVC always work?. Its the same in every TVC Flanker?.

man i don’t how to feel about that.

Not really Thrust vector. But something a kind to Split throttle. Mig35(?) also have a thing like vortex control in the LERX.

There is a photo of BARS in the same message or earlier…due to the lack of space or due to the design of the rotary device, rotation is possible only at an angle of 30 degrees in each direction…
1.Also, from this information, it can be concluded that there is a radar mode (only electronic scanning to which +5 degrees were added in each direction and a radar mode with a mechanical rotation in one (necessary) sideways and/or electronically-mechanically in each direction…
2. There is also some kind of upgraded version (optional), but the data is provided only for the operation mode for ground/surface targets…Marked as ***.

@BBCRF, for the Su-30SM, does the OVT work for all speed ranges or does it only work for low / medium speeds?

There’s already a thread on how they need an aim120C5 to compete
