Dont know why people keep bringing the kh29 when they all have pretty much the same seeker as the agm 65B
Can I get a photo of the X-38MT on the plane?
Because it will be the new boogeyman assuming hammer gets nerfed
bro you are basically saying Russia should keep its overpowered AGM that may not even exist in the first place just because Russian plane is bad at top tier? horrible take.
Also, thrust vectoring is not useless, Su30 are very lethal in a dogfight when they have R73. Su30 can keep its nose pointed at the enemy aircraft for as long as it wants with the thrust vectoring (as long as it has enough altitude ofc.) so the enemy plane needs to dump flares the entire time or it will die.

I feel like it could make sense to target static positions using IIR to correct for IOG drift in areas with heavy GPS jamming where you cant get close enough/an angle to laser designate but doesnt really make sense in its implementation in game
what is the other fox 3 good for close engagements? Oh right the r77 and now r77-1 is even better

because it has much better kinematics and a bigger warhead than mavs
and assuming the Rafale is running 2x Magic II and 6x AASM, they will only have 4x MICA
Su-30SM can have 2x R-73, 6x R-77-1 and 6x KH-38MT So they also have the heavier AAM fit as well
You complain about how the Kh-38mt cant be removed because its what makes the Ru TT good (imo even more reason to remove it, a fake weapon shouldnt be the main frae of a TT.) Then complain about the F-16AJ, q mediocre plane in about the least appealing TT in game
Still outclassed by mica in close range.
Okay, you have 2 missiles more, while the rafale still outclasses the SU30 in every possible way.

more missiles, longer range fox3, better CAS, better HOBS fox 2, works in cover from much better AA platform
Sure…
I just corrected you where you were wrong,
There is literally no reason to be passive aggressive
Horrible take and horrible strawman.
Can’t even comprehend how did you reached such conclusions.
you still have the 6km track range of the agm 65 B…
Doesn’t really matter, you are not fighting 16 enemies at the same time like in ARB.
In the short engagement distance of GRB doesn’t matter either.
Rafale does the same thing SU30 does to the enemy
Magic to are as good if not better as R73, depending on situation.
Ah yea the old song again…
But got it. Rafale bad, Su30 OP.

It is also weird, why SU-30SM is able to load 12 of R-77-1. I researched open sources, found no evidence of installing 12 AAM on this plane, there is only 6 AAM stated officially. So, it is possible, we have not only fake advertisment missiles, also fake loadouts.

max missile amounts for russian aircrafts are often misleading, one has to rely on images of missiles on different pylons to add these missile
su30sm can carry atleast carry10 r77-1. the dual rack r77-1 between the intakes is found on su35, theoretically it can be also done on su30sm easily but we dont have any pictures for
If you want to go down the road of “fake” loadouts.
I also read somewhere the A10 had issues with damaged tires when they used the 3xMaverick pylons and therefore stopped doing that.
And there are probably plenty more cases like that.
To be honest, KH38 is the only thing that makes ussr plane tree worth grinding.
Removing it is not an option.
Your words, not mine. Kh38 should never been added in the first place, simply way too powerful and no AA can fight it except the pantsir, which is in the same nation the Kh38’s are so it wont face each other, ever. Very fair.

Yet the only option for other countries, that would be able to reliably destroy pantsirs with same level of ez as kh38 does - was mutilated into oblivion, made into a complete fake weaponry.
There’s two ways of resolving this topic.
1)They keep being silent - hence creating a precedent for every other country to demand ANY weaponry that at least had 1 mockup.
2)They come forward and prove that 38MT exists and then we can start talking about how wrong it’s targeting works.
I don’t see a third option, really.
