but it dosent have a worse radar

Su-35 technically also isn’t. N011M was tested on one of the airframes that supposed to be a template for serial production
most of them had the N011 (non M) which is a worse radar
Production version would get N011M most likely, unless USSR would want to keep Su-35 downgraded compared to domestic Su-27M
Speaking of 27M, anyone knows difference in lift between Su-27 and Su-30SM in-game? Cuz canards should increase lift for around 15% according to the book kizvy mentioned (or was it 7%? I forgor which one was for lift and which was for surface area)
man i was making a joking reply to your joke
building of the fact that you didnt specify what su35 you mean
Canards already make the flankers pull harder, unsure if it’s actually modeled to be a specific 7 or 15 percent
We certainly pushed this joke to its limits. Also I think even with N011 Su-27M would be great because it will sit at 13.7 most likely because no R-77-1.
Well, pull is one thing, I am more concerned about lift. Because you know how easily Su-30 looses its lift in-game if you pull the stick too hard (meanwhile Rafale can’t even reach AOA at which it will loose lift)

Another interesting photo, according to the magazine this is Irbis-E on Su-30MK2 airframe number 503 flight laboratory.
Last huffs of hopium until the teaser drops, then we can hibernate until March 2026.
Make it June 2026
I expect 5th gens to be on their way by then, unless they wanna pull the next funny move and release the Su35 instead of the 57
Nah, I think 5th Gen will come at the end of 2026, there is way too much balancing issues for now to just dump 5th Gen aircrafts into the mix
I agree with you, but idk if Gaijobless does, I think moneh sounds better for them.
Absolutely, but you can achieve this by selling F-15E with AESA as a pack premium or something
You have some insight don’t you?
No, I am just looking at my personal player statistics.
Everyone screams about 70 usd premiums as a scam, predatory monetisation and gaijin greed, but then you load the game and 14/16 aircrafts on your team are Su-30MK2 or F-4S
Let’s go, Su-35 only in march sad
