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

dosent make a difference ingame all the N001’s behave the same (besides the ammount of DL channels)

VEP has longer lock distance. And i might be coping but i found it more notch resistant.

actually id rather have the n001vep because it gives a datalink indicator on the radar screen for 27ers which is nice. the normal n001 doesnt

SMT has the radar atleast, Zhuk-M wipes the floor with the N001VEP performance wise

Ye, i know, that’s why i said that it would be very weird to put it at 13.3, because this would imply that it is somehow equal to SMT, which is not, even without upgraded engines of 27SM.

Probably. I had a lot more success with VEP than with Zhuk, but that’s just a matter of taste i’d say. On paper Zhuk is much better than Sword in pretty much everything.

Doesn’t it get two more pylons though?

no A2A missiles on them

I wish not, after that whole sh#t storm with VT4 they shouldn’t have any wester/russian vehicles if they wanted chinese vehicles so much

True. Anyway, a fulcrum would’ve made more sense as a premium but oh well

impossible. copy paste = cheaper.

The fulcrum would’ve been copypaste too… anyway, whatever they add we can already bet the model will be some poorly assembled mashup of existing planes with a ton of inaccuracies

i wont be surprised if they copy paste the physical model of su33/30 and rename it.

the Su-30MK2 isnt copy paste they have to change the 3d model for it

Nah this one doesn’t have canard it will be a copy of the 27
Also what’s fun is China is the original operator of the MK2 but they probably won’t get it

iirc they copied a lot of stuff from the su27 or su27sm for the su30sm when it was initially released. im sure it even had the spo-15 antena marking on the sides of the intakes.

Don’t use past in your sentence, it’s still the same poor mashup while we’re speaking

it still isnt a copy paste

the mig-29s would have been a 9.13 with r-77s no changes to the 3d model needed

for the 30mk2 they have to create a new 3d model and a new cockpit

yea i get what u mean but lets see what they do.

How many thousands do you wanna bet that they will? It’s gonna be fun
