I personally trust BBCRF’s take, since they made the 30SM mod for DCS and likely has more reliable information.

the problem is that people focused on the weight of the su30 that he showed…
but he also commented on improvements that the su30sm could receive…
the problem is that he himself is not willing to make bug reports, it’s complicated to want to nerf the plane nonstop and not be willing to improve it in other parts as well
when someone asked for the sources to improve the su30sm he just laughed and showed the su30 dcs mod…
like D: at least provide the sources to make the plane better and the sources to correct the weight (or make a bug report for everything…)

If 30sm performs badly on the live server, we’ll have to use su27sm for one more update D:
I don’t think it will be bad in normal air rb, as long as you still have missiles to defend against planes that are trying to dogfight you, now for duels with guns only? i have no idea, since it’s a worse su33 (with the limiter on) and base on that, it will be pretty bad.
On Dev Server 1v1 Guns only it was mostly wins so far, against F18C, F16C, EF2000
with the limiter on?
F18C on 1 circle i did manage to get the advantage, now i’m not sure about the others, the kills were mostly when i was using TVC, gotta note that it’s not always using it to have the nose at the target immediately it’s also about positioning yourself in the Dogfight which helps alot.
27sm can do everything except it lacks a decent radar, and 30sm without the new engine will be pretty easy to take down if it can’t take down the enemy in 1c
I’m not talking about bvr because i really don’t trust gaijin’s r77 and 77-1 models
so with the limiter off, yeah i was talking about the pure performance of the fm (STR and ITR) with the limiter on
my only problem in the normal air rb (on the dev) was when i had to notch more than 3 missiles with the su30sm, the plane really doesn’t like to maintain any speed D:

Yeah the 1 circle against the F18C that i mentioned was without using TVC, but after 1 circle u gotta use TVC to help you.
J11b is looking like meta flanker this update. I for one am glad I am a China player.
Well, at least it will go into 3-9/Notch very fast… unlike even the current Su-27
China has been eating good since the j7e, the little energy monster
china bias?
Only then it gets a somewhat strong CAS (since every “[X-nation] bias” is mostly GRB and CAS by extension)
