I have absolutely zero clue what Gaijin was cooking, this has a combination of the worst things all in one. This disgusting piece of rubbish still has the SPO-15, it keeps its horrific N001 from the previous J-11 and it has the mediocre R-77s to put the poo (not cherry) on top of the cake.
The Chinese player base in general isn’t the largest and isn’t as vocal as some others as well, most of the neglection which has been piling up has come unnoticed and without a large backing nothing will change.
The SU-27SM has come under backlash for being inferior to almost all other 13.0 vehicles and the J-11A does this but worse. Gaijin even had the balls to copy the pylons from the SU-27SM to the J-11A without reskinning it so now you’ve just got some random blue pylons on a grey aircraft.
Nearly all bug reports to get the J-11A adjusted have been declined due to them being “dubious” yet nearly all Russian reports on the SU-27SM usually get acknowledged with the weakest of sources.
Something needs to change, either the J-11A receives the upgrades it actually had or give us a modification which would allow us to upgrade the J-11A to the J-11B.
To believe this shares the same BR as the F-15C is a actual sick joke, what are your thoughts on this?
I think that J-11A should be upgraded/improved to its historical standards, but NOT changed to J-11B. That would also include upgrading the J-11A to the J-11A MLU. They are both different aircraft and would fit much better whenever something like the Su-27SM2 is added, in my opinion.
The flight model is useable but not competitive, the FM isn’t the main issue but Gaijin clicking CTRL + C then pressing CTRL + V whenever it comes to Chinese vehicles which are similar to their Soviet/Russian counterpart.
Its a odd take i have all the big top tier jets but the j11/su27 fm is both bad and great to fly, not competitively but just casual flying i like how it feels.
why the hell didnt we get j11a in the first place, now we have 2 identical flankers that aren’t foddered. At least su27sm can carry precision ground ordinance. We literally have an r77 mod to the functionally identical radar. Also I didnt realize china domestically produced the j11a’s cockpit with russian language.
