I forgot to test F-2 and Mig-35 goddamnit
Don’t forget missiles. Still remember 7Ps crashing your game if you just try to launch them

i remember leviathans where missiles just didnt hit at all
that was fun in sim, especially since the average sim player isnt able to dogfight at all

Secret bullet hell testing actually
Scratch sim. I was able to bully Eurofighters in a MiG-29SMT of all things
you can bully F-18s with the 9.12 in sim
because the “people” flying the premium hornets only know how to monkey pull

Its quite interesting because, in real life Eurofighter is limited to 23° AOA, a stricter limit than the one we have on the F-16
damn J-16s acceleration seems really good, did you like its fm?
I think the FM is nice overall, it’s still a bit slower than the SM2 in most regimes.
The J-16 looks to have engines with a newer nozzle though, so maybe it will get a bit more thrust, and match the SM2.
I sincerely hope so, do you think we’ll notice any difference in acceleration between the SM2 and the Su-35?
it might be because it is still uses J-15T stats. We’ll see next week if there will be changes. Overal this dev server looks the most… complete out of the ones we had this year, so we might actually get an update after just one week of testing

Possibly, that depends on how much they lower the drag profile of the Su-35.
Since it has no canards.
I wouldn’t expect anything grounbreaking though.
Cockpit probably contributes much more to the drag profile than canards. And RAM coating should technially remove rivets and panel edges from the drag profile as well
Now that you mention it, does RAM on the Su-35 or Su-57 require the pilot to keep the jet under certain speeds?
To preserve the coating.
Interesting question, but i haven’t seen anything specific mentioned about that. We don’t even know what RAM coating Russia uses and how resistant to heat it is

man these things can haul ass, i lauched them from around 80km and around 3km of altitude and they haven’t even slowed down from cruise speed util they’ve hit the target

i think gaijin changed TVC logic AGAIN. Nozzles aren’t turning as agressively as they did before, especially at speeds closer to transsonic
It’s basically Thrust-vectorless SM1, and as the radar still 140 degrees, I don’t think it will be meta tbh.
Bit faster and less sluggish than the regular Su30sm I’d say.
Though it is true the kit it gets isn’t gonna shine for its br.
Assuming both AIM-7 and R-27 gets its fix for current update, I’m on hopium that there will be decompression. I’ve seen how AIM-7 now even outpaced AIM-120. I wouldn’t be truly surprised when R-27 gets fixed it actually got its Mach 5.6 power lmao.
If so, then J-15/16 and Rafale would shine at its BR as they are still pretty much the only 14.7 aircraft that don’t have more than 180 degree radar.
