Sukhoi Su-27/30/33/35/37 Flanker series & Su-34 Fullback - History, Design, Performance & Dissection (Part 1)

Oh I know Gunjob is the master at getting things done and hes all over it!

It was always higher, and the thrust increase is not that big. They also changed the take off weight value, don’t know what it changes, though. It might not directly dictate the actual mass of the aircraft

They are, but you also have R-73 that was buffed on the dev server
I have used the R-Darter for the last few months and that missile is pure pain

Another fix that is never a waste of time.

Will have to see if they still randomly spin out of control though.

I am a little dumb, was this sarcasm or an actual compliment?

Gunjobs record speaks for himself. He is the absolute driving force to getting fixes made!
Nothing but respect for what he does

oh ok… still feels weird, before the update both 27s felt kinda the same to me (guess they were both so shit difference in energy retention were not noticeable lol), but now the normal 27 feels pretty good, 27sm feels like it has more thrust but also more clunky. Still they rate the same and given the rarity of dogfights extra thrust will matter more once you load the aircraft with missiles

Anyone created bug report for that?
If not, I can

Please do, i don’t have any info i could give you

Because as I see in most reliable source “internet” Su-34 doesn’t use rudder
Only 35 and 57 do

I have it unlocked and I am having the opposite experience.

Do you have the German one, or one with Pirate?

If you have one with Pirate, can you please do the following test for me:

Huh, weird. The empty mass is 16300 kg for S and 16700 for SM. I though the difference IRL was much bigger (don’t know where I read it, but some sources would give only a small difference, select few of others would give a much bigger figure).

@BBCRF, can you comment on this?

Oh boy, one FAB-3000 UMPK is enough to destroy one base and it glides very good. Su-34 can destroy 3 bases at once with six Grom-2s and FAB-3000 UMPK+two R-77s+two R-73s loadout.

And the Su-35 also flips its flaperons up as spoilers once it touches down.

Hopefully the snail models this, unlike the spoilers on the Tomcat, which were still missing last time I checked.

Just under the max 8 tonnes too.

Or rather, when you have the R-27ET’s instead of the R-77’s.

how far can they glide ?

Am I a schizo or Su-27 drops all TWS contacts if you are changing radar vertical skew and Su-27SM not?

Stop spreading fake information

People were saying on the dev server it was improved and was hitting shots it wouldnt normally.
