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

Even if it did it would look differently most likely. 1.44 was a tech demonstrator, god knows what changes and tweaks it would get during the development phase.

True.

i am more afraid of PL-12A to be honest.

Me personally, not so much…China is mostly in the same team as the USSR for the simulator which I play when I play.

Another thing is, if we are getting 120D and 12A, R-77M is not too far behind them most likely. Although gaijin also can keep it for Su-57 release as its main armament and give us R-37M instead

you can add the AIM-260 or Meteor but they will still be mid unless gaijin updates the chaff resistance on the copy and paste seeker they use on all Fox 3s. it wont change to alot much tbh

Chaffs? Its long when was the last time I used them…multipathing is usually enough for me to get rid of them.

Sim is truly a different world. I love bitchslapping people trying to multipath in ARB with R-77

Is there any information available for the R-77M? In terms of performance.

@kizvy can probably give you better info than me, he had some sources on it.

Yep. In sim everybody fly 15 meters above the ground literally.

2 - 3.5 times better range than standard rvv-ae depending on speed and altitude

Same.

If they added with WS-10 engine at the same time J-10C could become a menace at top tier.

Still gonna get clapped by 77-1’s guided by IRBIS in my opinion.

J-10C with W(a)S(a)-10B(i) engine and PL-12A sounds more like a menace tbf. (Should definitely be moved to 14.7 with said changes)

I hope gaijin will do a funny and add R-77M with 9B-1103M-200PA seeker

I’m betting that the dev opens and the R-77M will be magically there.
