I collected a few photos of the Su-30SM HUD, but I’m too lazy to make a bug report)

Su-30SM HUD still doesnt properly show targets when locked on.
Su-30SM HUD doesnt show map GPS marker either.
These will make sim mode unplayable.
In general it seems like the HUD is still very much early WIP with many missing features that work in other aircraft.
and dont show the pylons in the hud bottom etc…
this plane literally useless in sim mode because the fm its a joke and the agility very important in sim
I have not been able to test against many aircraft yet but it gets destroyed by the Rafale in sim, no contest. It can’t compete. But yes HUD, and also the pylons MFD if one exists would be awesome.
this is a bug right?
Yeah, it’s pretty pathetic. The Su-27SM remains the only Russian top tier for which merging with the enemy is even an option, and even that can’t fight the Rafale or EF in any context.
I wonder if the Su-27SM will be getting the ability to disable its stability like the Su-30SM. All Flankers are supposed to have excellent nose authority at stall and post stall speeds, but I don’t really feel it in game.

it also gets the limiter off key, but ofc is not same as the su30 with tvc but all sukhois got that, the chinese ones too and the f18
Oh yeah, of course it’s not the same without TVC and canards, but even the base Flankers should be at the top of the list in terms of supermaneuverability. Finally having access to that is a big boon to the Su-27s and J-11s.
canard?
Thrust Vector ON?
The main problem is that the Flanker lacks its high-alpha capability in WT, especially at slower speeds. You have funny situations such as F-15 beating the Su-27 in a one-circle.

The horizontal tailplane is not seamlessly connected to the fuselage.
That’s kinda what I’m getting at, and hoping the new switch will finally get us past this.
Although I can’t speak to this experience, I’ve never had an Eagle beat my Flanker in a 1C, and can only recall one instance I won that 1C fight with the Eagle against a much weaker pilot. According to statshark, the Su-27 does outperform the F-15 at medium to low speeds, but the Eagle has a much snappier turn at high speeds, which is closer to what I experience in game.
It’s mainly the F-15A that is very wack, I’m 99% sure it is overperforming, it doesn’t even feel like the same airframe when you compare it to how the F-15C flies.

KH-59s where found hopefully they will replace the kh-38s
Whoever made the 3D model really spent like zero effort researching lol

The Kh59s in the files are radar anti-ship missiles, so not replacing anything
F16s also seem to pull too much aoa, even the C
