Many of India s non ground attack fighters are also two seaters, so what s the use of this extra per

。。。Your understanding of the fighter has a small mindset.

First of all, the Su-30MKI was originally defined as a fighter for war bombardment, and it was not a professional air supremacy fighter in the first place.

And there is no single-seat fighter for the Su-30, which is a two-seat fighter.

You say that the so-called ground attack fighter is worth scrutinizing, and the ground fighter is a strong strike aircraft, and I am afraid that you know this very well.

The so-called two-seater has indeed strengthened the combat capability of the opposite side, but it cannot be said that it is a ground attack fighter, and its definition should be a multi-functional fighter.

Because the general air superiority fighter in the multi-mission environment execution is not high, so the birth of a two-seat fighter Generally, the same model of air superiority version of the fighter is a single seat In fact, the Su-30 is also a member of the Su-27 family Because it is different from NATO, the Su-30 can be regarded as a multi-functional version of the Su-27, but it is true that the Su-27 also has a two-seat model, but it is not as good as the Su-30 in terms of multi-functional strengthening, especially in land capabilities, and the Su-30 is not small from the Su-27 in addition to aerodynamics.

Then let's talk about LCA and other fighters.

MKI, LCA is not based on ground attack, and there is actually a problem with your statement.

Then ask yourself the question F-16 F-15 is an air superiority fighter or a ground attack?

Let's not talk about the F-16 The F-15 can be said to be one of the best air supremacy fighters in the world.

But it also has a two-seater, and according to you, he's in the air, so why do you want a two-seater? In fact, he and LCA have a reason for the two-seater - the same model multi-purpose version.

Taking US fighters as an example, generally there will be two versions of each type of fighter, that is, A B, and C D after upgrading, and generally the rear is the ground attack type, or the multi-functional type, and the front is the air superiority type.

The F 14A, F 15A, F 16A, and F 18A of the US third-generation fighters are all single-seat types, while the corresponding F 14B, F 15B, F 16B, and F 18B are all two-seat types.

That's your problem.

It is normal for an air superiority fighter to develop different versions on the same model, and this is to save costs and time.

This is also the trend of this era that is calledSingle-platform multi-purpose

This is also the way of thinking of the United States, in the eyes of the US military, there is no ** model, in fact, each ** is a platform.

And the best way to do it all is to be able to do everything on the same platform. Hope!!

This is different because of the different combat missions, and the specific performance is from the fighter side:

First, the general light fighter is mostly single-seater, and the heavy fighter is divided into single and double-seater;

Second, the two-seater can effectively improve the effect of the attack, the front seat is responsible for the fighter pilot, and the back seat is responsible for locking and attacking;

Third, the two-seater fighter is more effective in multi-purpose attacks because it can flexibly allocate personnel;

In addition, two-seater light fighters are generally used as training aircraft.

...How is it that the su30 is not a ground attack? How does LCA have a two-seater? Trainers?

Two-seater training aircraft are mostly training aircraft, or heavy fighters, but now the electronic processing power is becoming more and more advanced, and artificial intelligence is becoming more and more developed, so there are more two-seat training aircraft now, and in addition, the training aircraft can also fight.

An important indicator of India's choice of fighters is the versatility of the fighters, that is, they can not only have air combat superiority, but also be used as bombers. The two-seater aircraft are multi-role fighters capable of both air and ground attacks.

For example, the F-15C is a single-seat fighter that only has air combat capabilities, while the F-15E is a two-seat fighter that can fight in the air and on the ground.

The Su-27 is a single-seater, focusing on anti-air capabilities, and the Su-30 is a two-seater, which can fight in the air and on the ground.

Most of the two-seat fighters are multi-purpose fighters, and most of the air superiority fighters are single-seaters. Because of the attack on the ground and the sea, the driver often cannot operate it.

Who says most are two-seater?
