I think he means AL-31F-M1 over Serie 3 in standard Su-33
I’ll probably be good for those last stand r73 shots because canards are poorly modeled
Modernization to Su-33(M)…
Sukhoi Corporation has been repairing and upgrading aircraft to Su-33(M) since 2002. A total of 19 Su-33 fighters have been upgraded (including two aircraft - twice).
As of October 5, 2010,
Sukhoi conducted ground and flight tests of upgraded Su-33 fighters.
Judging by the data available from the contacts of public procurement for modernization, it boils down to supporting the aircraft to perform the role of a bomber and a carrier of various
modern hanging containers for reconnaissance and target designation. Radar replacements and support for modern air-to-air missiles like RVV-AE are not performed in the aircraft, because
the role of the fighter is assigned to the Mig-29K, and the Su-33 must solve tasks where a large payload and range are required.
- Installation of GPS/GLONASS satellite navigation systems
- Installation of the SVP-24 high-precision bombing system
- Installation of the L-150 radiation warning station
- The SU-33 is planned to be equipped with a modern IFI-based system…

No, there was no such thing
Understood.
So, it’s essentially another strike aircraft?
(Deleted my previous reply cuz i didn’t pay attention at all before writing)
Su-33 does not have any smart munitions, why do you call it " strike"?
Supposedly it’s being upgraded for that role

The extra pylons might curse it with the old me262 “overwhelming armament” delusion.

If they plan to make it Premium, then anything is possible!

I don’t remember who said it, but someone brought up that the Su-30SM might be coming this update with the 33 as a Squadron vehicle or Premium or something.
Wouldn’t it make more sense for the Su-37 to come before the 30SM? To my understanding it’s just an earlier version with one seat. But then again I don’t know too much about the 37-
I know it was a prototype, and I can’t find any sort of weapons load for it- but apparently it carried the N011M Bars radar which can do R-77 and R-27.
We must wait and see

Hey you know alot about Russian jets,
The Su-37 would be better than the Su-27 at low speeds, obviously, but what about at medium and high speeds? Would the energy retention be worse? Maybeeeeeeee the 37 could fix our gripes with the current Flanker FM?-
It’s because ppl are expecting a navy plane to be added together with the f-18, in that sense a su-30 would make more sense
I mean that makes sense, but were the other vehicles in the leaklist naval??
I know the Rafale has some naval derivatives, but what abt the Eurofighter?-
I dunno. I’m just kinda excited for next update and pleasefortheloveofgoddon’tonlygiveusthe33.
