Sukhoi Su-27/30/33/35/37 Flanker series & Su-34 Fullback - History, Design, Performance & Dissection (Part 2)

yeah considering most of them are launched at 200km.

Seems they have found the wreckage of the Indian Su-30MKI that was lost yesterday during training, both pilots confirmed to be lost sadly

idk how true is but they already started blaming the chinese EW for the crash

Only complaints i saw was that they used a lot their jets and they have problem with the maintenance of that jet with a lack of spare parts.

how would they have problem with spare part if the jets itself is made in india ?

Because they still have to rely on Russia ?
They do not control everything, pretty sure that is the plane that they receive kit from Russia to manufacture it.

they dont ? most mki is more india part than russian.

plus they have all the will of the airframe, they can creat part without russia.

only i can see is the problem is either the engine or control surface system.

i think the problem is more on the Indian air force itself rather than the aircraft, in a span of 10 years around 106 aircraft has been lost.

At it’s core it still very much is a russian plane with critical parts that are still russian at the end of the day.

That too, like i said they use them intensively so it does not help.

Critical parts that India can make almost entirely themselves.

At it’s core it’s a Russian plane made by another nation.

Yeah no, things like engine very most likely not.

HAL actually does produce AL-31FP on their own.

(picture from a HAL production line.)

Then blame is entirely on India lol.

More like entirely on HAL.

Bro it’s only my 3rd match, who thought PL-12 + R-77 was a good idea for 13.3…

The Su-30MKM seems to have somehow lost ±5 degrees of its vertical scan range, but I don’t understand why it hasn’t similarly lost ±5 degrees of its horizontal scan range and remains as it is.

Huh welcome to the club.

You got chineesed buddy.

Also I recommend to run 3-4 R-77’s for short range + 2 Pl-12 for medium to long and 4 R-73’s for close range and dogfights.

Works like magic.
