thats so lame tho the yak 130 gets cm and these missiles before the M it should either be completed or shouldn’t have been added i dont want to play half completed aircraft just because “muh BR”
Not the Russian Yak-130, it can’t use flares
yes it can
Its not wired for them, and doesn’t even have the cockpit switches/buttons for it
it is the only one that wasn’t was yak130d and that’s the pre service prototype

Its not. They only wanted a flight trainer with light weapons training, so no countermeasures and no RWR
The ones with countermeasures are the Yak-130 (improved) and Yak-130M
not true they made light ground attackers in the 00s that use uv-26
Yak-130 (improved) and Yak-130M
bko 130 and uv26s are both compatible with base model russian yak130
yak130m use a different suite

Compatible with modifications to wiring and cockpit controls
ie, not the Russian Yak-130, but the Belarus one had those modifications made
all are compatible stop making things up
even the first batch of 12 where compatible because they saw it as a potential stop gap to replace su25
Only with modifications, modifications NOT made to the Ru Yak-130
modifications that where available from the manufacturer and sold by Irkut corporation (yakolev)
Sold to Belarus, maybe some of the other clients like Algeria
ok so more digging and we are both right 10 of the initial irkut order had the modifications
for RU forces and these where intended to be tested as a stop gap for a su25 replacement but failed to live up to expectations leading to yak133 and eventually they decided to peruse a dedicated su25 replacement
Ill look into it more later, but if there was an initial batch, the ingame model is the batch without them
sorry not initial batch thats my bad. first 12 where made by sokol plant and then the irkutsk plant took over making a additional 65 planes and 10 of those had the CM options
Ok. well whichever batch it was
Gaijin did say they were going to add other models in the future

I’m sitting here eating my popcorn and enjoying the shit storm I created…Lol. Really though, it was just a simple question. Sorry peeps…
why not just, like add 2 versions like with the thaiphajet, one at 9.0 without fancy stuff and one at like 10.7 with the flares and r60s
