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

its not a marketing lie but in context of brochure it lies

25x4

no
normal mode is :
bars 140km
bars r with reduced noise factor : 200-220km
irbis e - 4 times more power so 210/0.69 = 300km

n035 for su35s are probably have slighty lower noise factor so range is probably 320-340km

Old magazines put it at a 10x10 zone, where did 25x4 come from?

Did you use flankerchan/stealthflanker’s aesa range calculator?

Is this for detection or tracking?
I assume tracking uses PD90 so that’s 110 km for 3m^2 target

I think the radars peak power might have something to do with it under specific conditions, which is why I said I doubt it, but then again I also don’t doubt a defense company’s ability to lie just to sell their fish, thats something the entire global military industry does

they mean it have 100sq degree zone
25*4 = 100

10*10 zone is not typical for search radars

no i just √√ the 5 and 20

detection
120km is for zhuk with very small diam

btw the n035 antenna was based on osa antenna

the issue is that a certain someone dosent understand that just becasue 2 things arent the same just look similar

and still hasnt sent me his full source for the claim that the AL-31 is just a scaled up RD-33

Was wondering if anyone who plays or knows stuff about su30mkm could answer this question. I’ve noticed my MAWS shoots out flares when I’m fired at from BVR range at the beginning of the match. Is this a bug or not because it’s annoying to lose all my flares in the first 5 minutes of the match

early flankers, along with the fulcrums have received a new HMS, no longer green but now we are orange red

(these are basically simplified versions of the better HMD of the 30SM2, not sure if the chinese flankers have these)

in the mkm i just turn off automatic maws dispensing. It’s really only viable on planes with BOL cms.

You mean by disabling it in the modifications? Wouldn’t that turn off the missile direction on the rwr? Or is there a way to turn off the dispensing by itself?

no, of course not.

indeed

yes, click disable this option right here in menu, under air battle settings
(enable automatic counter measures release at mission start, ddisable it)

“Slave countermeasures to MAWS”
Either available as a keybind, or in the multifonction menu, gotta do it each game.

wait so do both? what does each one do?

only do one.
the second one just toggles in game, like turning it back on and off.
the options ones just disables automatic release at mission start.
your maws will still work
it just wont automatically dispense cms for you, you have to do it manually. you will still get warning

ok so yours is a one time fix while salt’s is a fix for each game depending on if i fly the typhoon or su30mkm. got it thanks
