I absolutely agree with you. Anyone who didn’t use the Su-27SM back in 2024 when the AIM-120 dominated our poor humble Flankers with 10km of HMD, without the improved AL-31, having to fly 1 centimeter above the ground with a terrible FM, isn’t even worthy of touching them now at their peak, nor is he worthy of commenting on this topic. This is our sacred topic for the Flankers Guys, we suffer so much that we can see our birds dominate the skies.
We never forget these times Snail… NEVER!

Don’t forget the absence of the 2 extra R-77’s

Never forget and never forgive these darkness days to Flankers…
At the time even the N001 radar was also much worse than it is now

No TWS+, and I also think the double scan was still an issue at the time, must have been a terrible experience.
Poor 29M tries his best to keep up with his brothers all alone…

yep, also gaijin broke it at one point so it picked up EVERYTHING - missiles, chaff clouds, but not enemy planes. Thankfully it was fixed in a few days, but i still have memories of trying to lock someone with HMD just to lock everything around him instead.

Of course he’s doesn’t like any Russian/Soviet equipment… So when are we getting F22 to counter the might MiG-15Bis🥀

He didn’t say compete with, he said counter… ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Idk what you mean bro, he’s totally right in saying that the Eurofighter’s Mechanical radar is on par with Modern AESAs.

Dude I remember back in 2024 I was jealous as hell of the ussr flankers because they at least had good rwr, more missiles and the better engines compared to Chinese top tier which was abysmal garbage with the J-11a
That’s what you get for “skipping the line” and going for a smaller tech tree. But in reality, difference between J-11A and SM at the start was just RWR and that’s it. Radar improvements never really played a big role in Su-27 combat strategy, so VEP upgrades at the time were pretty much useless.

Does it have an L-150 at least as well?
