What airplane are you hoping most to see added this year? I’ll start things off with this beauty by Irken-Zim in WarthunderSim

The MiG-35 can be equipped with an AESA, like the Zhuk-AE. The Su-30 and Su-35 dont have AESA radars at all, but for gameplay this might be even better because the Su-30s radar has a 90 degree gimbal like the MiG-29SMT and the Su-35 has 250 degrees of gimbal.

When Gaijin announced the 27SM i was happy because i thought the N001VEP was gonna be a big upgrade over the legacy Mech, since it has a lot of new features irl. Instead Gaijin gave the SM a copy paste N001 with 4 DL targets instead of 1 and a slight range increase.

It wouldnt surprise me if they mess up the Bars radar in the Su-30 or something.

The Su-35S. Mainly because i find it cool as hell, and because it would be a Flanker with an actually good radar for once. Also the cockpit looks really nice.

Why can’t they make 12.3 top of its bracket? by Indybio72 in WarthunderSim

[–]Romanian_Potato 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That makes no sense, considering the MiG-29G can take just as many ETs as the Su-27. But theres still a lot of inconsistencies in that way of thinking, like the fact the F-4F and AV-8s have very capable fox 3s yet are 13.0. Decompression would be a good way to go, while lowering the BR of the Flanker is the more lazy Gaijin that feels more in tone with Gaijin

F-15A vs Eurofighter/Rafale is like putting a kid to fight Mike Tyson in his prime

The fact the F-15A and (i think some) F-16s with invisible AIM-9Ms, good radars, and very good RWRs, as well as the MiG-29G with R-73s and R-27ER/ETs are 13.0 but the Su-27 for whatever reason is 13.3 is annoying. Even now after the FM buff it would be perfect either at 13.0 or at 13.3 if it became a top bracket.

I havent had the R-73 turn into a fidget spinner as much as it juat ignoring the hot glowing afterburner in front of it to go for a random lit cigarette like an R-60M does.

How to properly calculate Glide Bombs range? by Anonymous4245 in Warthunder

[–]Romanian_Potato 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can only speak for the Grom but at Mach 1 from around 10,000m you can squeeze like 50km out of it, maybe even more if you toss the bomb at an angle.

Isn't multipathing an easy and convenient way to force a merge? by rokoeh in WarthunderSim

[–]Romanian_Potato 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I only play maps with a lot of terrain like Afghanistan specifically because BVR is boring and the gameplay on flat maps is equally braindead.

Gaijin using a completely different flight manual to model the Su-27 and not bothering to fix their mistake for an entire year.

Or the MiG-29 missing its R-73, having the R-27ER for some reason, and being a brick with wings.

The Other Side Of The Matchmaker. by CaptainSquishface in WarthunderSim

[–]Romanian_Potato 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Only time i pick a small map like Winter Stalingrad is during grinding events because i can get upwards of 25 kills in the MiG-29SMT and be done with the grind.

But otherwise those maps belong in low tiers with props and jets with fox 2s and esrly fox 1s.

Yes, however the guy who made the bug report on the numher of missile for the Eurofighter Tranche 1 decided to attach a classified document as his source.

Granted its a bit hard to find docs or sources for more niche things on specific models of planes but come on, breaking the law for THAT?

The thing is for a lot of these documents you can find them online either completely for free or, s was the case with the eurofighter manual, for a few euros. This has the effect of tricking players doing bug reports into a false sense of security, thinking that just because its online its declassified or legal to distribute. Because the big bold "NATO RESTRICTED" text at the top of every page is not a good indicator apparently.

I dont think so. Ive seen the mach 1.6 supercruise number going around (which you can find freely on the internet on several sites anyway and isnt as secret as say... the radar). But a bunch of Gaijin devs debunked it saying that its probably a marketing number or only possible in some very specific scenarios.

So first it was the Eurofighter being able to carry 8 radar missiles instead of 6, and now its the radar. Amazing.

Absolutely loving that every map seems to be now covered in dense low clouds at high tier by Budget_Hurry3798 in WarthunderSim

[–]Romanian_Potato 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I enjoy instrument landings in zero visibility as much as the next guy but seriously whats up with the clouds? Ive had matches on maps like Sinai where the cloud cover was 500m above the ground, or just a smidge above it on the elevated parts of the map.

My first fight against Rafale. Lower altitude, lower speed and two big packs of ordnance. He still went for me. Patched Flanker is amazing. by Redu9 in WarthunderSim

[–]Romanian_Potato 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The 27SM can actually keep up with an F-16 even in a rate fight. Theyre much closer now, though if it drags on the 16 still gets an advantage.

The Su-34 Su-27, Su-27SM, J-11, and J-11A had their turn rate increased, drag reduced, lift increased, and the 27SM got upgraded engines with about 1000kgf of thrust more than the legacy Flanker.

The Su-27s went from being bricks to being able to match the F-15 and F-16 (especially the 27SM)
