It’s a bit of a blunder to announce a new vehicle in the dev notes and for it not to be there
It’s not the first time it’s happened though
It’s a shame because I’d like to know what the MKK brings

Yup same as 30mk2 other than having 1 less datalink channel
chinese su-30mkk cant carry PL-12s ?
they can but i doubt gaijin will give them pl-12 for balancing reasons (they probably want to put it at 13.3)
30MKK with pl-12 and pl-8

Can it mount AAMs on the underwing pylons closest to the intakes and landing gear?

Is there an official reason to why it can’t do that when compared to planes like the Su-33 or Su-30SM
i mean on brochures for su30mk it just doesn’t show missiles mounted on there. IDK why

I certainly hope they won’t, MK2 already kinda under BRd and they already have the J-11A in that BR with the same load out only difference would be RWR and FM
I’d prefer seeing it at 13.7 with the option to mix Chinese AAMs with Russian (4x R-73s + 6x PL-12s sounds like an interesting load out)
Also idk if they use the RVV-SD on this but if it could get that it could fill a 14.0 role as a flanker which there are none right now
nah, radar needs to be upgraded for that. Which is why I don’t understand why they don’t add su30mk2 for china, they were first user of that model, as well as that radar being compatible with rvv-sd, and it uses pl-12/pl-8 as well. So with that they could’ve gotten a very diverse 13.7
Who knows at this point man, reasonable and logical decisions is a lost concept at gaijin entertainment

If it’s premium it’s completely nuts. The jh-7 proto is less than a month old. That’s like a slap in the face to everyone who bought it for 80 freaking dollars.

They realized how well a premium flankers sells and couldn’t resist it
I hope that too, it would be unfair to add it just after people have brought the JH-7A and there has been no preorder announcement or anything datamined like decals etc to indicate a preorder so far.
Hopefully it’s only temporarily marked as a premium because they copied the Venezuelan su-30 or something, and they now need to recategorise it etc.
Unfortunately, I think that it will be a premium though, that’s definitely wishful thinking ^
Lets believe

Any one have any info if the J-11BS loadout is simillar to SU-30MKK ?
why will it be 13.7 with PL12? it’s actually considered at equal level with R77 (or aim120a/b, derby, but not mica/r77-1).
maybe it differs since different players has different playstyle, but from gaijin’s view they’re same at br.
