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

Got 2 secondary sources for this now, time to report. Maybe second top tier plane in the game with radar maws

MiG-29 was not around in the 70s.

While I would enjoy historical match ups even when I was at a bit of a disadvantage the teams are to big for that to be enjiyable and unless you want to focus on conflicts that took place balancing might be a bit of an issue still.

Which F-15 variant are you refering to?
Esoecially since the European deltas were held back a bit because of funfing cuts and the like in the 2000s.
Disregarding the flight performance here of course.

This is crazy. Sm2 before Su-35s. This Sm2 also should be lighter than the SM. Because the weight of the radar. 210kg difference.

And FTR the Radome of Su-35s its smaller than SM. BARS its a 960mm plate while IRBIS its only 900mm. Ron has being posting a weird pic. that show a wrong Su-35s model.

Maws will probably be ±125 azimuth from her front and ±30 in elevation.
Time to hit of 6 seconds will probably be modeled as 5-10 km range radar type maws

The crash out from this guy will be legendary when he sees the dev update

I don’t think he cares all that much

His amount of posts on the subject and the way he expressed himself suggests otherwise

Amazing things are happening in the bug forums





Skip to about 9:50 in the video and you can see the insane backshots the SM2 is capable of.

Relatable

Nah. Gaijin its the wrong here. But that also applied with AESA Eurofighters. That shouldn’t be in game. Su-35s should have be a better option. With 0 controversy whatsoever. Its so rare that they add AESA for Eurofighter that are not ready for the next maybe 5 years. And Su-35s that its like from 2008 is still not in the game. IDK what gaijin its smoking.

Sadly i don’t have time to grind this thing. And for matt video the FM hasnt change that much. The engine its also wrong model. Its also should have the same buff that SM got the last patch.

Isn’t it using emergency mode already in game? Thrust would be much less if they based off the 14000 kgf normal thrust instead of how it is game with the 14500 kgf emergency thrust

I have not seen any evidence supporting either side, for both the engines and radar. An Su-30 was tested with the AL-41 and Irbis, but I do not know about the Su-30SM2s in active service.

Them adding the irbis to it with no supporting evidence of it having irbis is funny. Didn’t all the evidence point towards it being an updated more modern bars radar set? The tech mods using the excuse of “there is no evidence it didn’t have it” when there is no evidence that it did is what really puts me off. It’s not as bad as the marketing lie fiasco or the stinger shenanigans but they really need to sort out some consistency when it comes to stuff being implemented.

Quite frankly this should apply to everything in game for all nations if there is no supporting evidence that something did or did not equip something it should not be added to the vehicle otherwise you end up with franken vehicles which should not exist. It’s not the first time or last time this is going to happen tbh I think it needs to be heavily called out or gaijin need to be a lot more transparent with sources and how/why they make these decisions. But after that BVVD video a little while back answering questions I think like it would be talking to a brick wall.

But they are consistent.
They are consistently inconsistent =]

What its called spool time? the buff that the SM engine got?.. That change was realistic but its not something only affect the AL-31FP engine. Also all Russian engine should have the Emergency Thrust add. This is a game and we don’t care if that dmg the engine. But whatever.

Yea true but for me its rare that they would put AL-41 engine. When 177 engines are much better in all aspect.

The wha…?
