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

That looks like major skill issue…
From the missile itself
It did fly way to high and in circles

Bug report:

Russian guided bombs incorrect max release speed:

https://community.gaijin.net/issues/p/warthunder/i/GXDSC2gueyO0

Given that the minimum release speed is also given, I assume the 1100 kph figure is IAS/EAS.

This would translate to decreased Mach number on the deck but increased Mach number at higher altitudes.

It feels like it also doesn’t load in full resolution. Look how blurry and “square” the roundels and “МА ВМФ РОССИИ” on official one are

Gaijin, please give it the upgraded engines, make it SM2 if you want to, because this thing has anaemic acceleration.

İt’s like a sick old man

Currently SM2 has same engines too.

Just make it the version with upgraded engines,

Why must Russia always get buffs after the plane is already garbage and outdated and 3 patches have passed?

Why are western fighters always added as broken UFO’s or flying bullets, but Russian jets must suffer with poor performance and acceleration?

Gaijin gives Russia a good radar finally the jet is a boat, the jet has performance but no radar, etc. Etc.

snail pls gib blu afterburnr angines for faster nyoom

Also I can’t believe that it still has the Fullback central pylon AND an incorrect slat…

Multiengine control is still broken
Model still needs fixing
Radar still displays wrong search zone values (only a text problem)
3D texture is rough

Su-33 looks cleaner than it for christ sake

This report was closed with note “This information is outdated”.

Spoiler

The source is a snapshot of Sukhoi’s website from 2022-03-07.
And given that it’s from the manufacturer, it’s a primary source.

Can you please mention what is the more up-to-date primary source that you are using?

Is there perhaps a picture of the aircraft showing eight R-77 missiles?

Or is this infographic by “Sputnik” by any chance the source?

Spoiler

If that’s the case this is not a proper source, since:

1- It’s a secondary source, and even worse, if you look at the bottom, the information is sourced from websites such as “newsweek.com”.

2- It’s from 2015.

3- It has obvious errors (Look at which pylons the R-77 missiles occupy in the chart).

4- It provides the old fake number for maximum speed.

5- It shows the fictional rear-facing radar.

Do you have another primary source, more up-to-date and credible than the 2022 snapshot of the Sukhoi website? Perhaps a picture?

They have their own source, i hope they dont use websites of the manifactor , as the Infos given in those are generic, not specific enough, like in the regards of the performance data, but using logic,
I can see the 8 R-77 being, of the pylons are already present if not, then no, It isn’t a posssible config.

Watch them remove the 2 extra R-77 on underwing pylons of Su-34 and then slap them between engines

Interesting that they marked that one report specifically as outdated while ignoring the other reports. Seems there may actually be newer sources/information proving the report wrong while they didn’t have any evidence for your other reports to be wrong.

Unfortunately they changed the website so it doesn’t even show who closed the report …

I really hope that they do in fact have an actual source.
If they say their source is the Sputnik infographic it will be hilarious …

What is the source of this image?
