Su-39 isn’t historically accurate, other wise it would have:
2x R-27R, T, or ER
2x R-77
2x An Hypersonic cruise missile. (I think it’s called. X-58)
It also doesn’t have its thermal pod
then give it the stuff except for cruise missile since those are a no go for any aircraft

Probably gaijin just want to keep it on current br ans not 13.0
Or, they could give it 2x more R-73s in place of the R-77.
And R-27s take the place of the Vikhir location. So it would be which one do you want.
I’d like to see it become 12.0 (would be nice with the better rewards)
But get the option of getting 2x more R-73s and 2x R-27s, as the F4S is 12.0 and can totally annihilate the competition.
fair enough i guess

Oh, checked picture - naming is wrong a bit
Place where MPS410(ECM pod) are able to mount R-60M only
So, R-77 are mounted on same pylons as R-73
F16C ? It has 120 normal CM and drop them by 2. I carry 80-40 on it and it empties fast.
It’s fine at 13.7 IMO. It could go up with decompression but it’s really not that impressive at the moment. Gripens with Aim120 are about as effective with a lot more CMs, and F15 are much better.
The radar is good, I grant you that, but it’s a solidly average plane at its BR.
Edit : In Sim it has the advantage of the F16 cockpit being really good as well I guess. Very clear HUD and huge field of vision.
Ah you are correct.
So it could actually carry:
2x R-60M / chaff or flare pod
2x R-73 or R-77
2x R-27T, R, or ER/ET
16x Vihkir
MPS410 cant act as flare/chaff pod
It also has smokeless Aim-9m which are impossible to know if they’re coming at you in sim
Where did you pull that, being on that pylon?
You can predict by using your own missile seeker
MPS410 is ecm pod, it just doesnt have space and else to have chaff/flare inside
So by chance.
Which I pre flare anyways because it’s 50/50 whether or not there is a aim-9m flying at you. Vs an R-73 has a massive smoke trail
That’s not what I was asking.
Where did you get the info on the pod?
Mainly - DCS
But probably theres sources like magazines
DCS isn’t a primary source
Well
You still can visually see MPS410, it doesnt have any places to put flares/chaffs
What does MPS do?
Jammer pod.
