because its russian, if was a US fighter should be overperforming like 30% in some conditions, like the f16

Alright, ty
tysm!
Are leaks allowed to be discussed here? If they are, what do you guys think about the Su-34 coming this update apparently? It’ll have a worse flight model than the SM but a much better radar, so it might be better in the ARH meta. No thermals but carries KH38 so it’ll be okay CAS.

Knowing how Gaijin balance Russian CAS planes it will have FAB 3000 glide bombs and an air spawn. I tease it’s a cool edition
I like the su34 but i’m not hyped with its possible addition because of gaijin’s recent failures, it’ll probably come out super buggy and weird.
Buggy or not buggy it will be a missile bus. It weights a lot more than the Su-27.
Until Su-27SM3 or MiG-29M is added flight performance will always be on the lower end

Yep but i’m not talking exclusively about flight performance, it might perform innacuratel in other areas, being it over or underperformance. With their current refusal of looking into fix the issues regarding top tier ufos and broken modes i kinda almost completely lost my trust on their product.
When talking about War Thunder i’m now that annoying doomer that will always have pessimistic expectations regarding future updates lol. Unfortunately there’s no other game that offers the same as this one so i’m stuck with it.

Will Su-27SM3 even fix the flanker flight performance by much? Doesn’t it just have stronger engines.
A Kh-38ML I think,
Is there any photos or information about Kh-38MT in services?
Well Flanker main problem is with energy retention right now, although it is also underperforming slightly in outright turn. Better engine will help with energy retention.

It about IRST, no?
It might be possible to use the Kh-38MT seeker as a makeshift thermal sight.
