And they also partially fixed HUD in the cockpit - now you can actually see direction to the target relative to your jet when the target itself is out of HUD
Yeah, those missiles love to lead into the ground so it’s better to launch them from at least a few hundred meters of alt with you nose pointed upwards
Eh, I’ve been running 11.3 for a month, and I get about 80% full 1.0 down tiers to 10.3. It’s the 11.3/11.7 split where the overpopulated premiums peter out
A word about a flanker's radar. It's not as bad as people tend to think of it. Its scan takes a lot of time to complete, but it covers a full 10 degrees of elevation AND some descent horizontal angles. For comparison, f15c's radar only covers 4 (as I remember, anyway, way less) degrees vertical at wide tws, and 8 degrees at narrow tws. So, it's a good search pattern. One shouldn't rely on launching missiles in tws, just search for targets in tws, lock them, fire an r77 and repeat
This is my 2nd favorite flanker, only beat by the SU-30 (pls Gaijin I hope it's in the next major update). I hope this thing does get an engine buff, or at least a tech tree version with better countermeasure load, and engines since Russia currently has an active program that is going to replace the older engines.
0:23 One question, the plane is only worth 8k eagles or do you have to pay something separately because when the f117 came out, apart from paying with eagles for the investigation, you had to pay again to acquire the vehicle?
I'd say it's better than the su27 with r77s simply because you can stop kidding yourself about getting kills with the r77 and just play normal flanker tactics. Russia won't be in the bvr/medium range debate until r27ea minimum. This plane at least gets down tiered a bit more often.
I think the playerbase is large enough that we can finally get rid of the +/- 1 BR spread in the matchmaker. It is unbelievably stupid that you can be forced to be an RP piñata for players in much better vehicles because the matchmaker says so.
6:28 That F-15C J'ing out is a bonified loser
4:04 they actually changed HUD RWR for SPO15. It now refects how it looks in the cockpit and shows elevation too.
oh thats cool

REALLY? I didn't see that. That's awesome!
Sad that the Admiral Kuznetsov didn’t get added to air RB maps :(
*Su-27SM - engines have been replaced with the AL-31F-M1 engines*
IT'S SO AWESOME
Throw the r27et up under 7km as in the video most of your r27et are hitting the ground

Couldn't really get any good clips of it LOL
1:31 damn you were flirting with the ground there
Canard Flanko AND actually good flanker buff - W update right off the bat
6:25 thats the thing. Up to 12.0 and id argue even at 11.0, EVERY. SINGLE. GAME. Is a full 1.0 up tier.

Researching it since the minute the update dropped lol
Same, see you guys in like... 3 months 🥲

What did they do

Oh and I can't forget my obligatory F-14D hopeium/copeium.
I wonder if the J-15 will also be a squadron vehicle when it eventually comes.

Yes
@@-.-.---.--...--.-.......-..... yes what?🤣 Do I have to pay twice or only once.
I do the very same things Lee does ... but I get hit by FOX1s and 3s like 10 times more often lately ...
What’s up Lee! Admiral here, ready to cheer you on!
YO! Appreciate you

general lee when we going to get aim7p with the same r27 magical seeker going to be top2 sahr missile
We need 14.3 or 14.7 now.
I wonder if 12.7 is going to get a somewhat better matchmaker after this new patch...
I'm gonna have to test, I really hope so 😭
What skin is that? (First Su-57 style camo)
It's a custom skin
You can find it on warthunder live
It's on WT live. They had no camo options for GE 💀
su33 before the f18 is sin
No fox 3 no money from me . RIP gaming
I'm playing the J-11 and I'm seeing nothing but downtiers fighting the hords of Mirage F1s
Must be nice... I wonder if the Chinese matchmaker is better?
87 days to get it for free ...
siiiiiiick
No flightmodell thunder lol
hi man

DoA?
