Never came to fruition, AL-31F M1 was put into serial production in 2006, which is decades after Su-27M ended its existence. But yeah, it was planned
with info from this book and the second tome of the other one we can safely say that T-10M-11 and T-10M-12 had PESA N011M installed in them
Ahh damn, so we’ll be stuck with the Al-31F. Big RIP.
Unless Gaijin adds Al-41F1 for some reason.
i mean, Su-30SM after FM buffs feels itself pretty ok even with AL-31F. Su-27M only slightly heavier than it and would be placed at a lower br.
27SM, 30SM2, J-11B and J-15T have spoiled me.
I NEED better engines. I’m like a crack addict fiending for meth but instead of drugs it’s Izd. 177 on a Su-35S.
im still missing engine mod but it feels like worse than J11B.
Does it become better with that mod?
And for Su30SM2 Plox.
It feels super fast when spaded.
Then engine mod must be increasing flight performance a lot.
Thanks for the information.
you only missing engine? Or other mods as well?
changed name?
also they say it has some kind of ram coating, from what we know they tend to be heavy
I was only missing engine mod but @Dzhkグ was right.
This thing became monster after engine upgrade.
After installing engine mod, i felt so much more confident and went full rocketship mode (dont mind those two imposters).
I managed to unlock PL-12A’s in that game thanks to booster+5k.
Also this thing drinks fuel after engine mod, keep it in mind.
al-31 is a perfectly good engine in my opinion
27M is heavier than 30SM.
Indeed good sir, indeed :)
Another game where i scored 4k.
@Dzhkグ You made me love this thing after hating so much, despite limited CM’s i started like this plane a lot after so much suffering.
It’s Mach limit is also higher which I like, for some reason I’m terrible at bvr though in both sm2 and j15t and I only know how to kill ppl less than 20km away 😔
Got multiple 20+km kills with PL12A’s, GNSS helps a lot for me.
I just climb 20 degress after i reach 1250km on deck until 8k then raise my nose to sling missiles to people from 40km’s.
looking at Fomin book, Su-27M (marked as Su-35 here) is actually lighter than Su-30SM. Which is interesting because i do remember seeing it being slightly heavier.
I’ll try this out soon thanks, I assume this works for sm2 as well since they accelerate about the same?
You’re welcome, this tactic works with anything that has decent flight model, i also do the same thing on EFT’s and F15’s.
