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

Getting good rng with lobbies? I am not looking forward to facing constant 13.3 horde of premium 30s

Pretty bad one tbh, 13.3/13.7 bracket almost every match.

I guess the sheer amount of premium Su-30’s (MK2/MKK) that have been bought in the last 2 weeks is messing with the matchmaker lol.

As I was expecting. On the other hand, 27SM might be plenty fun to use in this environment

Yeah should give that one a try, only downside is the possibility to face Rafales and SM2’s.

Decompress to 14.7 already man…

I might give that a go, I’ve mostly been using the MK2 to grind the event since i can face a horde of MKKs and get SL doing so.

but the SM should be a bit better, I bet the J-11B is a ton of fun as well.

I used 27SM during six-shooter event and it was extremely fun to use because of the constant downtiers

All this mental gymnastics, not to mention a skill problem, the F-15 is still a great plane and the AIM-120s were king for a long time in the game. All the Gaijin needs to do is fix the missile, or leave it as it is until the F-15EX with Su-35s, R77Ms, and AIM-120Ds arrives. Complaining about the Su-30SM2 won’t change anything. Honestly, that’s why I’ve been somewhat absent; I’m simply fed up with reading this nonsense. Go learn how to play

For me, it’s simply no longer a surprise that almost everyone who complains about Russian equipment has terrible skill; as soon as I see someone complaining, I automatically know that WR, KD, are generally all bad.

Pov rank 6 seeing the light of balance at the end of the tunnel after years and years of madness

Would you swap your R-77-1 for 120s? No then with all due respect shut the hell up.
120Ds should be great 120C should be great but they are a side grade because Gaijin don’t believe a missile with small fins can pull high AOA…It’s the reason the Stingers are adjectively terrible. Gaijin bug report managers and devs just don’t understand lifting bodies.

Complaining about the Su-30SM2 wont make any difference, Gaijin is a very Russian company and the recent BMP-T is just another example of that extreme biased they either have subconsciously or it’s deliberate.

When Gaijin added the R-77-1 did you get a half finished missile? Oh the 77-1 can only do BVR you need the 77 for close/shorter ranges/ No you received a noticeable upgrade. 120C was deliberately held back Gaijin ignored all the sources and reports stating it should have some HOB capability.
As for KD…so what, I have about 3 meta vehicles.

That would be nice, I’ve been meaning to try some of the Vautours for quite a while now, but those br’s are pretty bad for stock grinding with such vehicles…

This reminds me of when US mains were whining and begging for AIM-120 to counter the R-27ER.

You mean the R-27ER that has proven to be overperforming in DL? I mean to think the Aim7F and M were equal to the R-27ER for months was just madness

Yeah, that one. The R-27ER which is UNDERPERFORMING in Flight Performance.

Again, you can ask @kizvy, he has the graphs.

It can be faster just limit it’s tracking add the self destruct feature like Sparrows after 3-5 seconds and stop letting Russians abuse TRACK MEM launches with it.

R-27 doesn’t have that.

it’d also nerf the DL on the AIM-7P.

Which is fine if it is not realistic

Also I find it so funny that you’re talking about Russian bias as it relates to the Flankers. Whose flight performance has been gimped since release.

I mean hell, Gaijin was using data from the T-10 prototype, and refused to buff the Flanker for nearly a year, and it’s still incorrect.
