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

Conceal carry R-77. But i think it’s just for the sake of transportation and storage. It is more convenient to put it in a box with folded fins than make a special crate insert for it

Are you saying that you never seen a 77-1 folded ?

I might understood it wrong because i know that even rvv sd have that mechanism

Not on an aircraft. And looking at the mechanism it seems not having any spring or something like this to force unfolding. So it would be very unreliable to launch it from weapons bay (or any catapult launcher).

Love this new HUD + HMS combo

HMS is so 1980’s on these days.

I want a proper HMD that displays tons of information even tho I will not understand most of them Xd.

i might have something for you

This is much better than simplified HMS tbh.

The real change will be the new HMD that is developed for Su-57 I believe, if they decide to integrate to both Su-30’s and 35 it will be much better.

If I played sim I’d agree with you, a proper hmd would be very handy, especially if it’s like the Eurofighter one.

Hmd certainly looks cooler than just Hms pointer, but this one on the Sm2 is a bit different at least.


i do wonder where are the sensors for this thing located

look for pictures of egyptian Mig-35’s

as they are the ones using it

Good luck finding a photo of a cockpit from one of those. I couldn’t.
Found several news articles from around 2020 that Russian MiG-29KR/KUBR also gonna get this HMD system. No photos for now, gonna keep looking

yeah they need the indonesian rafale f4 as compensation

yeah and they also need to fix the rafale so it can just de-atomize and re-atomize behind enemy lines.
