Sov13t

IIRC N001M was 27 radar upgrade to enable use of 77, could be wrong - read the books a long time ago. Or was it N011 to N011M?

In 1985 first active squadrons started receiving serial production models of the 27. This does not mean that test pilots stop their work, they continued pushing the airframe to it's limits. From 1985 through 1990 the Sukhoi bureau was already working on projects such as SU-33, SU-35, SU-34 that you see flying today. Things like vectored thrust, RVV-AE (R-77), use of side stick vs. center mounted stick, MFIs (Glass Cockpit) etc. were all tested and documented. As for the reason why officially it took so long? Well, let's just say the bureaucracy was quite inefficient and still is in many areas. My guess would also be that there was a certain level of distrust to the Sukhovites after they completely redesigned the aircraft (difference between T10 and T10S). Also, the air force kept throwing more and more requirements back at the engineers, look how much time has passed what was new in the beginning of 80s already needed upgrades things like memory units, processing units etc. Overall though, it was adding new features, new weapons and new capability. For example if it wasn't for the break up of USSR we would've seen SU-27M (now known as 35) enter service in 92-94 with (at that time) N001M, newer engines etc.

Actually, the 27/29 family were the first aircraft within the Soviet/Russian Air Force to step away from that doctrine. With data link, MiG-31 and SU-30 cooperation the 27 is able to operate without strict ground control and be as independent as your beloved F-15 - if there is a need for it. Demonstrated numerously by various exercises including the more recent demonstrations of SU-30MKIs over at Red Flag. P.S.: As far as the radar concerns... by 83-84 the entire weapons system which included Radar, EOS and WCS was operation and stable. Earlier versions, prior to T10-10/11 were flawed as you described... one of the obstacles the radar team had was initially the 29 and 27 radars were being developed separately, then the decision was made to unite the two projects which presented a few set backs, eventually they got it right.

Not having replays plagues this sport - at the very least for goals...

It's okay, the capitalists will lose at their own game. :thumbup: The proletariat will rise again.

If we are a little more specific... I believe X-43 is the fastest.

Interesting project! Good luck!

Doesn't bother me one bit. Brushed aluminum design with elevated keys for easy cleaning/maintenance is what got me on board. The Razer looks fugly in that department - in my opinion. Both products use Cherry MX keys, so actuation/consistency is a moot point between the two - Razer marketing is lolz.

I have the K90 from Corsair. Liked the engineering of it over Razer.

Two weeks ©

I strongly recommend reviewing at least a few different events that took place in FC and FC2 worlds and requesting briefs/debriefs from various squads that hosted them. Don't try to reinvent the wheel. It took years, and lots of failed/rescheduled events to weed out various short comings - which is what I believe some of the more veteran pilots here are saying. I am willing to wager that there are FC2 squadrons out there that are a lot more competent and serious about flying than some that exist within A-10C, especially when it comes to multi-squadron operations where ability of switch flipping means nothing in the grand scheme of things. So it is a bit discouraging to keep reading threads where A-10C pilots come out questioning those who have been around this community much longer and have probably logged far more hours participating in virtual events than they have.

:shocking: Is the legendary GGTharos hinting at flying??

--- I was most impressed by the B2... seeing it with your own eyes, in disbelief that a thing like that can fly. This is just a small selection of my favorites from this show. I kept playing around with ISO settings and timings, also did a bit of playing with Photoshop for post processing... so some are a little too rich in colors... while others are lacking... I am not a pro.

Results Another great airshow! Spoke and met with a lot of very interesting people, as well as saw some amazing displays. One thing that was noticeable, however, was it was a bit smaller than the years before. Come to find out, this is due to the fact that funding has been cut to all airshows around the nation, and only Andrews is one of the few that is still federally funded. Only now had a chance to get the pictures off the camera and do some touch ups. Hope you enjoy, as always high res available on request via pm.

Was fun yesterday, except it was much later than 1700z :thumbup:

Кого просить/умолять написать "очерк" об этом интересном слово сочетании? Например, входит ли в это новшество изменения в работе Радаров как ракет так и носителя? Была ли вам приведена эта статистика во внимание: http://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=1441178&postcount=117 ? И если можно, кратко, какие выводы были сделаны? Заранее спасибо!

mhe, do you think the Obutto can in theory be used with an extended stick instead of a short stick on the warthog? I notice that the joystick sits on top of the chair, so there is no room to move the base further down or is there?

This year JSOH will be held on May 18-20th at Andrews AFB and will feature the Blue Angels, F-22, B-2 and much much more! For more details go here: http://jsoh.org/ I am planning to attend with my camera, and perhaps shoot some video as well. Anyone else going? This will be my third consecutive year attending, and as always will try to do my best to share the best shots here with you guys.

Gentlemen, what about 25A? The true warrior of the Russian Air Force.

Спасибо :thumbup:

Модель 25Т такая-же как в ГС2.0?

А что за слухи про летабельный СУ-25Т?

Each architecture is more efficient than it's predecessor - and efficiency != clock speed. A piece of software that does not take advantage of multiple cores and threads and dumps everything on one core is a lot more dependent on clock speed than one that is optimized to perform in a multi-core/multi-threaded system. Otherwise we all would still be running Cedar Hills at 8ghz and would be 1337 kids. Answer to your question... the driver is poorly designed for not utilizing the cars full potential. And a counter-question to yours... a Yugo and a Ferrari are both traveling at 160mph... which car is better? :smilewink:
