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

also why is it limited to like 90km in tws mode (similar to N010) ?. V004 radar on the su34 has better range/scan zones compared to the N035

8n the first picture you posted it has the new H&D

and for the second picture, it might be a Su30SM simulator and not for the Su30SM2

second one is Su-30SM2 during radar tuning. Simulator one actually has similar HUD to the one on the first photo.

Yeah it’s bit strange, considering the N035 is supposed to be a massive improvement over the N011M but it can still only detect up to 90km in normal TWS mode

in that picture you can see that it isnt the thales hud

but rather the same one as in the su35
seen by the seperate uv filter infront of it


those images dont show the same hud

This new su-30sm2 is utterly ridiculous lmao, firing 771s from beyond the notch and r27ers are so nasty

Whoever decided thrust vectoring should go on flankers should be commemorated in history.
Also average r-73 spinning off to nowhere moment

Yes, that’s what I was saying in the first place. The first photo of Su-30SM2 (Blue 79) shows the same HUD as on the test bench. While the SM2 on radar tuning has a different one

I just forgot which one is THALES

Well, Vladimir Sergeevich Konohov was chief designer of Su-37. But Mikhail Petrovich Simonov also took part in it.

i forgot how to play this game, can’t get more than 3 kills.

Same… spend too much time playing ground

I still kinda play it like the SM, one or two missiles at the beginning of the match and then I try get good launches from TWS HDN.

The thing is that the SM2 gets to 1800/1900kmh so easily that the R-77’s begin to teleport to the enemy location haha, they are so fast.

Well, i forgor how to play SM, or notch and position in general. Didn’t had a reason to play top tier for quite a while, mostly played 11.0-12.0 bracket

Fair enough, in 2 weeks at least there will be the MiG-25 to test out in that bracket.

It seems that Sukhoi also tried to make Gripen at one point
