that one has two seats.
All of this.
>>31360330
It should look more like this.
>>31360167
>Tilted-outward extra-draggy wing hardpoints
>>31360167
>Not a jolly rogers F-14
Flown by inferior USN pilots instead of superior USAF pilots.
>>31360167
>Not the C model
>>31360167
mainly range but for the price they are equal to f16

What plane is this?
>>31361054
Su-33
>>31361011
>Less range, less payload, less BVR capability
>>31360427
I never understood why they did this.
>>31361161
It's because simulations during testing showed that weapons or fuel tanks ejected had a risk of flipping and flying back up into the fuselage. Tilting them outwards stabilised that at the expense of way more drag.

F/A-MAS
Canard and 2D thrust vectoring and it's superb

Tradeing a little speed for 2k more kilograms in payload seems a fair trade, to be honest.

believing what the Russians claim...
the Mig 25 was supposed to be a god jet but was basically junk with giant engines.
