i found it

It works on a different principle than Western systems…
N-(the topography is true North -6 degrees east declination for the territory of Russia)…
The SPO system is linked to the Air Defense coordinate system (which was developed a long time ago)!.

The canards aren’t done right
The tilt angle should be 4.3 degrees, not 0.

The whole model looks off, it appears like it was put together from a hand sketch of an Su-30, not a real one.

jesus christ did they try and make the Su-30 model by slightly rescaling bits of Su-33, slapping on a new cockpit, and calling it a day

Yeah the Su-30SM model still seems quite rough… and by rough I mean it looks malnourishmed, poorly maintained. Absolutely needs work. Doesnt have to look like it just came off the production line but it definitely needs some polishing.

Looks like third world export MiG-23S build quality

Has anyone or will anyone bug report the double racks that shouldnt be on this jet then? The argument for them on the 27SM from my understanding was that the R-77 was subpar, but the R-77-1 is (in a vaccuum) the best missile in-game starting this patch forwards, and even considering launch aircrafts offers a bit more than parity over all missiles in-game.

There would no longer be any balance related reasons to have them on the Su-30SM, and once on live, gaijin wont remove them.

His calculation are wrong. Yea there is a difference between Su-35s and other flanker but its not by that much. Its barely even noticeable Its more like the engine are tilted outwards. Su-35s has same dimension as other flankers its just tiny thing like the sting on the tail. The engine tilt because AL-41 has bigger diameter. And some diff on the radar cone

Clearly in pic. There its not diff. on Su-30sm and Su-35s.

Edit; I guess in gaijin mind if there its not Clipping on the model its should work just fine.

The Su-30Sm has serveral inaccuracies in its 3D model as you might have noticed,

@BBCRF feel free to ping me or to sent me a PM if there are further issues with the model so I can add them to the bug report.

@Gunjob could you please forward the bug report.

Flanker enthusiasts, I would like to ask a question: is there real-world evidence that the Su-30SM can carry the KH-38MT?


found this on the RU wt forum (it says the su30mk can use it and this variant of the su30 -MK- is from 1993, the su30sm is newer than the su30mk so should be able to use it without any problems, i think)

I dont know about any but there is Kh-59M evidence.

I saw people saying that it would have the same engine as the Su27SM, is that true? Nonetheless, i am loving this aircraft.

No Su-30SM only use AL-31FP
