F-16C Update and Su-27S Teaser

95.2k ReinMcDeer  2.5 years ago

The F-16C has been updated to version 3.1, which adds a fly-by-wire system to the aircraft, increasing stability by quite a lot. The aircraft should behave a lot better at low speed and high angle of attack while maintaining decent instantaneous nose authority. Redownload to get the latest version.


In other news, I've been making some progress on the Su-27 Flanker project.

This represents the Su-27S, an early Soviet variant of the Flanker. As such, it will only have the semi-active-radar-homing/infrared-homing R-27 Alamo series of missiles as BVR weaponry.

I also tried doing a proper camoflage since I kind of set a precedent since the F-15C and it turned out pretty good.

The flight model is also coming along pretty nicely. It has a fly-by-wire system that allows it to remain stable at high angle of attack and when disabled, it can perform Pugachev's cobra very easily. In a dogfight, it's an even match for the F-16C I made, with better nose authority and low-speed maneuverability.

The build is currently at 235 parts (around 50 of which is the camo) without landing gear, lights, weapons, and other details.

    @ReinMcDeer Facts, I tried making a Single seat Su-27 based off of your Su-30 and it ended up just looking awkward. The camo on this looks sick btw.

    @ReinMcDeer Thankfully we have trigger, the triggered mercenary that is the worlds first bloodless human, unfortunately he has no soul and more unfortunately, his plane doesn't account for him being bloodless so he is now scared, and all he can hear is Over G, Over G, Over G, Over G, Over G, Over G,

    @TheWeebREBORN They say the main limiting factor of the F-16 is the squishy bag of organs flying it for a reason :v

    @ReinMcDeer I tested the IVR Rate fighting capabilities of the F-16 and,

    Ayo, General Dynamics wasn't lying,
    that F-16C can Rate.

    @ZeroWithSlashedO I think later models can carry the R-77, don't know which one started it though. I know for sure the Su-27SK and J-11 can.

    @OkaNieba Because when I made the Su-30, I realized converting from 2 seat to 1 seat is harder than the other way around.

    @OkaNieba
    I think he already made that.

    Isn't the Су-27 unable to carry any other mid-long range missiles other than the Р-27Р/Т/ЕР/ЕТ to begin with? I don't recall reading the Су-27СК's specification and remembering it could hold the Р-77.
