R-37Ms can also be carried under the wings/fuselage, though they negate some stealth until they are fired. R-37s do not fit internally, only R-77s and R-73s do. The first two missiles fired were mounted under the fuselage, and were R-37Ms.

While I've bought several aircraft from DCS, I'm quite sure the next one will be the F-16. I still remember when the F-16 came into full public view and use....... there was a Clint Eastwood movie "Firefox" in which a helmet-mounted display was introduced on some supersonic helicopter and of course Clint was at the helm. One of my favorite movies ever in those days. Then, from outta the blue, comes the F-16, replete with the targeting tools seen in "Firefox". A favorite description of the F-16 was with regard to the deliberate "instability" built in....... it was the meat n' potatoes of maneuverability. Coupled with the recline of the seat which reduced forces on the pilot, the F-16 was incredibly nimble if not the most until the F-22.

This whole scenario is extremely unlikely to occur, as very few nations are going to send fighters in alone.

Haha. 12 were made in 2023, making Russia have a full su 57 squadron of 24 for the first time. 20 are planned for 2024, that will make the su 57 the fastest russian serial produced jet. And the newer ones will be su 57Ms with the upgraded al51 engines and the new Russian refractory glass stealth painting. So go on coping.

They lost atleast two last week

Badass fight man you and the f16 were doing it. It would be good to see a two seat f18 doing some training with another f18 and both getting jump by a SU57

[@adamb8317]

This is the F-16 against the most generous interpretation of the Felon’s capabilities, which in all honesty is how we should portray it. So that when we do come against it, we are ready for anything. Including an air to air monster. In reality is believe the Felon has a higher RCS and would be more defensive against an F-16 with AWACS, but it is very maneuverable and has lots of countermeasures; which makes it hard to hit in any case.

In reality there are not many Su 57 left, and no A 50 dares to fly..

Great work, two lessons, that's why they are 5th gen and secondly, DCS will survive the razmatas fiasco. DCS has a great future.
