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

Again in the manual it states that the RPLK 27/29 can recibe angular positions from both the OEPS and the hmd , keep in mind that these are not isolated systems.

Again these are search patterns, it doesn’t not represent the physical limits of the radar, the only difference is that the soviets decided to have a single pattern using those parameters, a clear example in the same platform is the ACM mode which is 6ºx60º,if the search patters are the radar physical limits that would be impossible as it.

Ummm where do you get 60 degrees? The IRST is at 60 degrees…

Do you understand that the radar has a maximum scan zone of 50 degrees. Do you understand this is true in DCS too? Do you know what a scan zone is? If you cannot exceed that in a scan, what makes you think you can exceed it in a track?

Can you explain where do you get 25 degrees?

Can you also explain why you are so emotionally triggered? You are seething with rage over this. Why? I can see how bad this is affecting you. You think you actually own any of these models or something?

You don’t. You never owned them. Your only licensed to play them. Relax, killer.

The fictional radar HMD mode exceeds both the radars’ ability to move & the IRST’s ability to see (shown in the video. You need to move the secondary reflector too. The Su-27 & Mig-29 are incapable of moving their secondary reflector.

So explain, how is the radar, the ENTIRE radar able to move??? Yes, the primary reflector moves to scan & track but cannot exceed its maximum ability to scan because its secondary reflector is static at the tip of the radar.

Are you going to attempt bring up the F-4J? Or F-4B as an example?? These radars were far more powerful, advanced & did not need secondary reflectors… They were so technologically powerful it required a literal Radar Intercept Officer to manage in the back… The F-4B’s AN/APQ-72 had a scan zone of 120 degrees and its elevation angle can be adjusted to a maximum deviation of ± 60 degrees from course…

Do you understand the massive technological differences at play verses this?
You do realize the horn that feeds the signal is not moveable either right?

50ºx10º is equal to say ±25º x ±5º

Draw a line down the display. Say you feel its 25 degrees?

Look at the strobe that crosses the screen. I have track IR it’s a solid 50 degrees zone 50 -50. IRST is 60 -60 degrees.

Its 50 degrees off the nose at range, not third person. It appears smaller in third person. Do I need to explain why?

It does not have a 25-degree scan zone.


You withdraw further to the correct distance in 3rd person in WT and its perfect. The scan zone is 50 degrees. It literally says so & actually matches with WT compatible 3rd party computer software. You guys are on some conspiracy theory.

let me use the regular view for the radar as you clearly cant understand the rectangular version,

Here 50º and ±25º describes the same arc you’re just using a different reference

Look at the strobe that crosses your screen that represents the actual beam scanning at the airspace. It is matching 50 -50. You switch to IRST it increases by 10 degrees.

This is literally the case as is consistent with track IR.

on the radar view the perspective is already taken into account, and it is far more accurate than eyeballing it using the strobes.

This is literally the case as is consistent with track IR. You are hyper focused on a miniature radar screen that is universally used for every vehicle with a radar in the entire game. Therefore, GJ has blessed you with the ability to see the beam travel accross the screen so you can see for yourself.

±30º


±60º

as you can see eyeballing it is far more complicated than it looks, as the camera is too far form the radar so there is a lot of distortion, it is far easier and accurate to use the radar display itself

Everything shows fine, even at large angles

Yes, I know this. I am glad you do too. However 3rd party compatible software is showing a 50-degree scan for the radar & 60-degree for the IRST as declared in third person. Everything is consistent. I have it hooked to the game as we speak (dev server).

@Nowel I would disassociate myself from such emotional arguments ^. Lest you look silly as this individual who makes absurd claims about the game out of anger but are the only one left when they are proven undeniably false.

He’s the one who made the claim, you just explained his position. However, you are the one left answering for it. While he’s nowhere to be seen.

You do not like my technical or historical presentation on Soviet radars. That’s cool. But you are going to have a hard time overturning history & technical ability to convince me. These radars are nothing compared to Post-Soviet RuF modernization & US aircraft.
Their Cassegrain radar set ups do not actually move. the Primary Reflector Plate does & that is the only piece. The Horn & secondary sub reflector do not, they are static. They are severely limited in mobility & must rely on reflection from secondary & primary plates to direct beams in limited angles.

It is the exact equivalent of using two mirrors & a light bulb to attempt to focus direct light at moving objects. Only one can pivot. They are nothing like the F-4J.


Su-27 high AoA flight curve

It has little to do with high AoA capabilities.
The standard Su-27 has a baffle in the air intake to block foreign objects. When the aircraft taxis, the baffle rises. The auxiliary air intakes on both sides and the bottom of the air intake are opened. The Su-27SM either cancels the baffle or only takes in air through the auxiliary air intakes on the side.
It is worth mentioning that the auxiliary air intake design was retained in the early PAK FA prototype.

Вероятно, новые Су-27СМ изготовлены на основе остававшегося на КнААПО производственного задела по планерам самолетов Су-27СК от приостановленного лицензионного контракта с КНР. При этом машины оснащены новыми двигателями АЛ-31Ф-М1 (АЛ-31Ф серии 42) производства ММПП «Салют», отличающимися повышенной до 13 500 кгс тягой и увеличенным ресурсом, и новыми комплексами оборудования и вооружения – даже более совершенными, чем применяемые на поставлявшихся до сих пор модернизированных Су-27СМ.
Как рассказал в интервью нашему журналу минувшей осенью генеральный директор ОАО «НИИП им. В.В. Тихомирова» Юрий Белый, «в конце сентября состоялся первый успешный пуск с поражением цели модернизированной ракетой с борта опытного самолета Су-27СМ3. Для применения этой ракеты на повышенных дальностях модернизированы антенна, передатчик и канал передачи данных радиокоррекции штатной РЛС самолета. Модернизированный Су-27СМ3 передан на государственные испытания». По всей видимости, новые истребители выпущены как раз в таком варианте. Одновременно с доработками радиолокационного прицельного комплекса и введения в состав вооружения модернизированных ракет средней дальности усовершенствовано информационно-управляющее поле кабины летчика – она стала полностью «стеклянной».

According to this 2011 report, the first Su-27SM with the AL-31FM1 engine was delivered in 2011. Meanwhile, the Su-27SM3 entered the state acceptance phase. I worry that the gaijin will try to split the Su-27SM into two fighters - just like they did with the MiG-29G 9.12; or skip the Su-27SM with the AL-31FM1 and release the Su-27SM3 directly.

That is a vortex generator. 100%. It has everything to do with alpha flight. I am not talking about the baffle.

It has no bearing on the intake as you can see on the inside walls of the intake.

В ходе испытаний в состав ОЭПС-27 была введена нашлемная система целеуказания (НСЦ) “Щель-ЗУМ”. Эта аппаратура, разработанная на киевском заводе “Арсенал” (главный конструктор А.К.Михайлик), включала нашлемное визирное устройство и блок оптической локации со сканерным устройством определения угла поворота головы летчика. НСЦ позволяла измерять координаты линии визирования при визуальном слежении за целью летчиком в зоне +60" по азимуту и от -15╟ до +60╟ по углу места при скорости линии визирования до 20╟/с, а также осуществлять наведение на цель зоны автоматического захвата ОЛС с одновременной передачей координат линии визирования цели в БРЛС и головки самонаведения ракет. Совместное использование НСЦ и ОЛС позволяло в ближнем маневренном бою сократить время прицеливания, осуществлять быстрый захват цели, обеспечивать целеуказание головкам самонаведения ракет до захода цели в конус возможных углов захвата цели головкой и тем самым осуществлять пуск ракет при максимально допустимых углах.

The HMD system directly controls the IRST, which in turn controls the radar… The OEPS-27 is integrated. This has nothing to do with whether the antenna can rotate.

I see what you mean.
But it is also not a tool for increasing lift at high angles of attack. This is the azimuth antenna of the SPO-15 Берёза system.

BECAUSE its referring to IRs missiles.

if the IRST is providing designation to the homing heads directly. It is referring to the IR seekers which do not need reliance on any radar.

Yes, it is 100% even the Yak-141 has them.

They destabilize airflow for the elevators in high angles of attack.

It does not “increase lift”. That is not what destabilizers do. They delay the aircrafts point of stall.

These are SPO-15 RWR antennas
