    Folks I forgot to mention - in this video we are using an updated Flight Model that I got early access to from the developers. It's been tweaked since then again and will go live with a new update that they are preparing for the Su-30 in the near future!

    The best description I've heard for the Su-30/35 is from a pilot who fought them. He said that it is like a dog fighting a cat. The cat holds it's groundand no matter where you come in from it spins around claws ready. His best strategy to beat them is to get them slow and then extend away to reset the fight and hope you can get them to eventually make a mistake.

      Sounds similar to my tactic! What aircraft did this pilot fly?

    Imagine if SU 30,35,57 had software that automatically directs the gun at the enemy and calculates the advance. Thrust vectorization and efficient control surfaces allow you to point your nose anywhere

      Instead it just has lead indicator, the gimbaling cannon like on su24 would be too weird on a fighter

    I really like how you didn't cut away from the first player view to show outside footage until shot down on this one. I like seeing the pilot's perspective first before seeing what it looks like from the outside. Cheers!

    some times a non real life pilot kick a** a real life fighter pilot in a DCS fight
    witch is a real SIM fight
    and if this pilot went to air force or navy maybe he became an ACE because he has all the mind talent that an ACE needs

    Do you think there’s a fourth Gen aircraft that can take the SU-30 in a guns only fight? Once you introduce missiles the fight becomes something else but man that SU-30 can turn.

      @@adrian_ricky619 that's the whole point. ED earns most of its money from the West, hence it has to keep it's customers pleased. None of the Soviet jets receive any performance upgrade, for that matter most of them are grossly underpowered in DCS, and even the Wikipedia stats of these jets don't match their performance displayed by ED. But the only thing being dedicated players have found ways and devised tactics against the western fighters in DCS.
      To tell you the truth, there are many players including me who got into DCS due to GS and after a few hours in the game you realise how much of a liar he is. FYI GS can't even handle the slightly above average skilled opponents, forget the top notch. For eg he says F-16 outrated Flanker on the deck, the fact is the Flanker has got so much lift and AoA that it can comfortably sit inside the turn circle of a F-16 forever.

      @@abhassharma1468 just because you are sitting inside an opponents turn circle doesn't mean you can stay there. by definition the only way you can stay in position on an opponent is by out-rating them. there's no way that an aircraft can sit inside another aircrafts turn circle forever unless they are out-rating that other aircraft.
      either the flanker can outrate the viper in dcs or it cant sit inside the turn circle forever. pick one you cant have both.

    8:10 No Hornet should be able to outaccelerate an AL-31FP equiped Su-30 as the flanker has superior T/W .

      As I’ve mentioned in the fight title, that Hornet started with 60% fuel and no pylons at all. Flanker was heavy. Hence the difference.

    "The nose of the Flanker is quite sluggish to react. I have complained to the devs about that... they need to improve the responsiveness."
    Basing this on what, exactly?

    • @CommandT
      @CommandT  День тому +2

      Many real world airshow display videos where you can see how the aircraft moves around and points, and also from general principles of flying airplanes on the whole. Obviously I have never flown as real Su-30 but some things are obvious to me as a real world pilot and as an aeronautical engineer. No pilot would accept such sluggish and laggy response from the flight controls. I’m not saying I know how it is in real life but I know how it isn’t.

    Su-30SM vs Su-57 and Su-47. Who's the better dogfighter?

    • @RedTail1-1
      @RedTail1-1 День тому

      Well in all objective reality the 57 is just an Su-30(which is just a TV Su-27) that's been designed to mimick the F-22 as much as possible without flat out copying it. The only real difference is that the 57 has a slightly better RCS and more surface area generating lift. So the 57 'should' win every time.
      As for the 47, there is no way to know. We have next to no data on what it could do other than speculation based on it's design.

    • @CommandT
      @CommandT  День тому +5

      Su-57 has absolutely nothing to do with the Su-30, and has about as much in common with an F-22, as the MiG-25 does with an F-15. It was never designed to “mimick” an F-22. It has a broadly similar shape and that’s about it.

    • @FlavioSantos-uw1mr
      @FlavioSantos-uw1mr День тому

      Su-47 would be an interesting thing, unfortunately we don't know its capabilities, but it's not like we know about most of these modern fighters anyway.
      SU-47 does not have TV but has the advantage in low speed and high angle of attack because of its wings.
      I wonder if they would have given it TV if it had continued in development.

We then made the production version. Even Frasca uses X-Plane now for about a decade and they don't do flight test programs. If I'm watching videos a lot its only because Im in bed recovering form cancer. Next time your at Oshkosh stop by and ill show you a real sim.
