Sukhoi Su-27/30/33/35/37 Flanker series & Su-34 Fullback - History, Design, Performance & Dissection (Part 3)

More footage of Spiderman in a Duck.

Also a glimpse of the HUD of the Duck.

I dunno if I should clip out the last bit with the Groms falling.

So, does that mean his second gesture is quite acceptable?)

it was just a harmless gesture of playing a drum with his palm, nothing else :)

Lately, we’ve been combining loads; there were times when we allowed ourselves to carry 2 aerial bombs with UMPK.

Also, @GitGood you said something earlier about 27SM3 being made out of older 27SK airframes?

So would SM3 have a slightly worse FM than 27SM?

the new TOS is absolute Crazy

It would regardless of the batch, SM3 has reinforced wings and landing gear.

do you guys think we’ll ever get a su27 with r-77-1?

In current conditions i doubt it. If gaijin didn’t stick dual pylons on every Russian Flanker because release version was absolutely horrendous and they tried to fix it with random bullshit we could have a smooth progression from Su-27SM (2004) with 6 R-77s and AL-31Fs at 13.7 into Su-27SM3 with 8 R-77-1s and AL-31F M1s at 14.0, but right now i don’t see any reason in adding Su-27SM3. With double pylons it will get 10 R-77-1s which is way too powerful for 14.0 and at 14.3 we already have a much better pick

From the quick speculation - R-77-1 integration, upgrades to N011M radars (either to the SM standard with more DL channels and probably some reliability upgrades or even to SM2 standards with more range, improved detection of hypersonic and low speed targets), potential RVV-BD integration, replacement of western avionics with Russian ones, integration of modern A2G munitions like Grom or FABs with UMPK

And on Su-30. Ofc it was Su-30

Afaik it was for the proposed Su-30MK3.

I didn’t know the dish had been built, let along put on an airframe.
