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

Does grey/metallic paint R-37 indicate it’s a non armed missile?

Mock-up most likely, it is a photo of Su-35S form MAKS-2019. Actual combat versions are painted (or rather not painted) similarly to R-33s

anyone from Saturn btw? Fresh SM2 photos have a very clean serial number on one of the SM2 engines

After running back trough UAC news about fresh batches of Su-35S, last time they were delivered with AKU-170s was march 2025


After that, all the photos with good enough resolution to check have AKU-ASP installed on Su-35S

Yup,in manual the cursor keeps jumping over the contact…i reduced the speed of it but no luck…

R-37/77M for SM2 you’d say ))))))

77M unlikely, as i said, it looks more like AKU-170 than AKU-ASP, but second one is AKU-620 i am 95% sure

Pixy livery that i use on every single F-15 be like
Honestly would love high rez Mihaly livery for Su-30 with weathering and such, but alas, we only have freshly painted ones

For some reason a lot of the Su-30SM/SM2 camos kinda suck. Usually I like using historic camos but most of those are poor quality.

I might try and make a Su-30 camo eventually, but i have no idea what I would base it on .

A clean, non rusty/scrappy/bleached dark navy camo, that also has the slat receivers modelled would be nice
