Mech?
Sukhoi Su-27/30/33/35/37 Flanker series & Su-34 Fullback - History, Design, Performance & Dissection
Mech aka N001.
That said what does that translate to? Any one know?
Radar I think
I just saw it, it means sword.
Oh, okay. Sorry for the confusion. Was not trying to be a jerk.
I literally just took a glance at wikipedia, and it says it there :P Not a sharp sword by any means.
Well with the eventual addition of the su-30sm that won’t be a problem anymore
I hope so, and SU27M aka Su35 early. I really don’t think R77 is even that bad, but couple that with the radar, it is the worst. I would hope R-77-1/RVV-SD if not R-77-M comes with AMRAAM Cs. I have given up RN with J11A cause it is even worse than Su27SM, I am going to buy it when J11B comes up, which should be next update, which will be a brand new flanker.

The most important one is range:

(2 km vs 14 km is a “suggestion”, for some reason)
Also, all IRSTs are missing a parameter for afterburner detection (IR missiles got these added, but IRSTs were left out). The only IRST that has it is Pirate. Wonder why it was not added when they went over my older IRST bug report.
The scan zone is very narrow compared to the limits. This makes it very difficult to spot targets on the IRST interface:

Then there is this display bug:

I don’t really think it’s that bad. People over-exaggerate.

I think it should just be changed to the SM3

It’s not bad meta-wise but that’s not the point
The R77 and the FM does make it slightly less effective, especially cause 13.3 practically is 13.7.
I think after ef and rafale single fulcrum what come, it’s mig-35
Skip MiG-29M and MiG-29K?
We have to push on gaijin on fixing radar scan pattern. All “nation mains” because issue that makes russian radars utter trash, plagues every single radar set in the game. Well every exept few exeptions and thats literally FEW.
Everyone will benefit greatly from it.

At this point to maintain a parity with an actual 4++ jets? Yes.
Still, would love to have 29K (9-41R) and KUB (purely because of it name/abbreviation)

I wish they add some old variants… Personally the 90s are my limit, I don’t have much interest beyond that era
MiG-29 should have the real life 0.86 oswald coefficient. The FM should be consistent, so like F-15, the same oswald.

Can we finally say the Flanker is out of beta after a year? 😂
