The gun should be used on more platform. Even IFV, not even joking.

i think the Su-39 got done dirty by not having these

it can also carry the r-77

i know, just i haven’t seen a pic of it flying with the 77’s and the 27’s would limit the br change from it recieving them

Does anyone here know if the Upgraded SU-33 actually exists? The one with the R-27EM and Su-30SM2-like avionics? I can’t find anything on it but that and the SU-35 are my motivation to start grinding USSR again.

What do you guys think of this?

the only upgrade the Su-33 got was the SVP-24 modernization (better ccip and nav equipment along with L-150 RWR

it got rwr… thats already updated version

i think that if people think the Kh-38MT should be removed because it’s not real enough they’re gonna have a stroke cuz of this
