@kizvy @GitGood do either of you have the denied bug report for changing the Su-30SM2 radar from N035 to a N011 variant?
I remember hearing that a report existed, but that it never went anywhere.
There were several of them and all closed due to “not enough info”
you really start to wonder why would gaijin choose such a new aircraft were we dont even know for sure the radar it uses instead of something like su35s.

Because Su-35S requires brand new 3D model, while Su-30SM2 requires only changes in config files methinks.
And judging by the fact that they had Irbis X-ray available - they did some work on Su-35S but most likely didn’t had a 3D model done in time. Which was also most likely due to the fact that it wasn’t supposed to be added at the time, but gaijin did it anyways. Real question is what was the reason to rush SM2, not like Su-30SM was struggling hard, or Su-30MKM offers an immense upgrade over it.

I’ve seen too many people say that the SM2 was added “Because Russian mains couldn’t bare to have better versions of their planes in other tech trees like we American players have to deal with, So Gaijin added the SM2!!!”

To be fair, the same guy explained that the Su-30SM was heavier than the MKI and MKM “Because Russian avionics are worse, and therefore heavier to make up for it, compared to lighter western equipment.”
… And he uses the term “ztardish” as opposed to “Russian” when talking about VWS.
I have a hunch he may or may not just hold some Anti-Russian Bias.
Naaah, sounds like perfectly reasonable bloke to me.
But serious talk - people constantly get outrage by one thing or another. Giving aircraft a certain capability or weapon is one thing (doesn’t take as much effort, ensures that people see gaijin as willing to listen to the community. Prime examples are MiG-29 9.13 and F-15E) and the other thing to bring a completely new (even if with 3D model of already existing aircraft) vehicle to the game because someone got mad. I think it was someone inside Gaijin who lobbied the addition, not the community

What happened what did he do
He’s extremely good at ragebait, or what I hope is ragebait.
I tried explaining that the Su-57 patent was outdated, and that it had its RCS improved via things like the intake gates.
but “I’d rather take my info from Sukhoi” was his response.
When I sent a radar simulation showing that the Su-57 WAS stealthy, he responded with a Quora post from a USAF Pilot on the Su-57’s stealth saying “Well I can also pull random sources from online, and they hold as much weight as your sources”
Some people just aren’t worth the time tbh.

It’s the gaijin rule. If you haven’t played the game for several days - you can’t post on forums. You need to play 3 games in several days to keep “active” status

Yeah, there is a decent amount of respectful and knowledgeable people to talk to, rather than debating ragebaiters (but i am guilty of being one from time to time)

The issue was that he was a mod of a semi-popular youtubers server, so if people joined they might just take his statements for granted, despite his abhorrent biases.
oof, pushing your own bias trough authority is such a low move
