Su-27

[Sir Humphrey De Bawbag]

Is it worth getting the Su-27 if I already have the Su-33? Is there a big enough difference to justify the purchase?

[Falconeer]

well, they are almost the same aircraft. The SU-33 has 2 more hardpoints for extra weapons, but sacrifces fuel capacity for that. Also the SU-33 can refuel mid-air and do carrier landings.

If's worth it, is a question only you can answer, but my advise would be to save some money and get Flaming Cliffs instead.

You get way more aircraft (low fidelity, so no clicky cockpits) to choose from including the SU-33 and Mig-29 (3 versions), F-15C, A-10A, SU25, J-11 (chinese SU-27), F-5E, F-86 Sabre and Mig-15 and it still is cheaper than buying a full fidelity module. There are also sales now and then and if the price drops to 50% off, it's a steal

Never buy single FC3 aircraft. Buy the FC3 pack on sale.

The bundle didn't get a sale price in the last sale while individually they did with the FC3 aircraft selling somewhere around £5-6 each.

FC2024 costs 60 USD without discount
All FC2024 modules separately without discount cost around 80 USD

Not really. It's a little lighter, some better performance, but the Su-33 is carrier capable, AAR capable, and two extra hardpoints.

If anything, consider FC2024.

Thanks to all.
I bought the SU33 and the MiG29 as stand alone (at different times) in the sales and have the Warthog on disc and as an extra when I bought the A10 Tank Killer module. I do like the clicky cockpits. I wish there was a full fidelity Russian to justify getting hold of some new kit...I'm looking at you Virpil Flanker.
