I remember posting that video(or at least seeing it around) a few months ago.
Iirc the Su-35S is acting as an AWACS while the 27P carries around ammo for it N035 to datalink in.
Yes ik it’s my post

I think top speed will be important in nuclear escalator where you’re trying to squeeze the most out of your draggy missiles by going as fast as you can and as high for some cap planes, but acceleration also matters as well.
I might be stupid but since your plane is heavier doesn’t that mean you need higher lift to overcome it and thus a slightly higher aoa at a given speed, and therefore causing slightly more drag?
Idk not sure that impacts the top speed in any way
There is actually a difference, but it seems to be extremely minor. @ron_23 i tested clean wing MiG-29SMT with min and full fuel (infinite fuell on) at around 1k of altitude (i just kept it level, but it climbed on its own due to speed) and got 1495kph for min fuel and 1492kph for full fuel

Makes sense, thank you
you can use this camera to prevent that from happening, since you actually get a working velocity vector there
well iam asuming that you used afterburner for that bc otherwise you wont reach those speeds at 1 km alt
but here is a full fuel 29SMT at 1km
and there is what i could get at 5km alt with full and min fuel
unless you are significantly heavier it dosent really matter until you are flying at way higher altitudes
at around 10km altitude your biggest issue will still be transsonic and supersonic drag

so, a miniscule diffirence, but still one present. Obviously wouldn’t matter in actual gameplay
Has anyone heard of APP-50MA?
I was reading a suggestion for the Su-37 of… questionable accuracy (much of it was just incorrecct) and they mentoined the capability of carrying 196 CMs.
Countermessures:
2x L-175W Khibiny-W ECM jammer pods
APP-50A and APP 50MA give a total 98 Flares / Chaffs, or 196 Flares or Chaffs, of caliber 50mm (historically not mounted, but technically possible)
i havent heard of it, ask ares maybe
Most of my Flanker suggestions are C&P from old Forum with some old errors, haven’t really bothered with it yet - irrelevant at this point anyway.

Fair, I’m still gonna look into it.
Having double the countermeasures would be interesting, to say the least.
Reading up on it, it seems like APP-50MA is just a modernized APP-50A (go figure) that can interface with MAWS systems (?)
I’m not sure, the only source I found that mentions APP-50MA solely mentions it on the Su-24.
Su-34 page is so wrong lmao. L-150, Mak-UL, APP-50A…

obviously not UV-5.
Su-34 would never use that…
