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

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.

On an unrelated note who wants to buy some Soviet Style flares.

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…

war thunder breaks everything all the time.

They might considering the su30sm2 imolementation

J20 is peak because it has no gun

Most of what we know about chinese jets is from less than reputable sources, its a given considering how the ccp operates. The ws15 should be pretty beefy from known estimates

Bro what the hell J20 looks like a Catfish
