i also found this which could be used to report the ability to toggle the TVC on the Su-30

well, right now it is “somewhat toggleable”. If maneuver mode is off - TVC only engages for like half a second when you start to pull and then nozzle goes back to neutral.

Eh, basically no new information from what I can see. The scan and azimuth limits and ACM scan zones are already known from NIIPs website

the ACM zone on the Su-30SM is still wrong ingame tho

It was already reported
https://community.gaijin.net/issues/p/warthunder/i/fFdR1w0SBJmq

Also for irst you have to remember it’s installed at a -7.5 degree angle.
So everything has to be minus -7.5 degrees which is correct already

yes but the overall vertical angle still isnt there

also i completly forgot about that report bc it is 9 months old atp

It is there.
-22 to 52 degrees is correct
(Technically 52.5 and -22.5 degrees but same thing)

acm should go from -22° to 52° then

ideally they’d decompress alot and uptier the base su27 and su30 to 13.3 along with the fox 3 slingers at 13.0. su27 and su33 are just way too strong compared to 90% of 13.0s. ofc this is considering the fact that current 13.3 13.7 14.0 14.3 would go up as well

amraam lacks the capacity to even dream of pulling that

they were king for like a month before huge nerfs

and yet they still remained to be like second, maybe third best missile.

lol

lol as much as you want, but at the time only AAM-4 MICA were better and both were limited to like a single platform. AMRAAM fall from grace came from people actually learning how to notch, getting platforms that can easily do so (Rafale, Eurofighter) and 120 slingers refusing to learn that meta has shifted

its not that they refuse to learn (eurofighter would be amazing at notch fights as it has the air frame for it)
its just that amraams aint good at those kinda fights

Eurofighter is a single platform. There are still, to this very day absolutely oppressive amount of people that can only comprehend “launch every single AMRAAM from 40km at near orbit”

not like the F-15E or F-15C golden dogshit can really do anything else

I would offer my condolences, but don’t really care. US tech tree was dominant for the most amount of time than any nations combined, i won’t be crying for them being bench warmers for a year.
