Auto Credit Based on MenstonianCz's DiZ-17M

Finally I've reached a milestone I thought would be hard to reach, yes it's small at only 300, but I feel I still need to reward the community with an long awaited plane, the DiZ-17M. The DiZ-17M was a 1960s CAS Fighter intended to support ground forces and patrol important areas. The design was patented in 1962 by Dimitri Zoyevich, a Soviet designer born in St. Petersburg, The plane was designed with one goal in mind, To Support the Comrades and punish the ones that go against them. The plane was a success, and it shows, it was in service even up to 2008 with the Russian Airforce. Due to the low speed and high maintenance costs, it was finally put in it's well deserved rest. The plane was the inspiration to a lot of future designs, and it really shows. So far to go that even NATO gave it a wholesome name Forger, As it forged the future designs that would come out of the Soviet union and Russia later on.

(The plane can be VR capable but I leave that to others, let their creativity make the cockpit, Dell® I'll even support it if you release it publicly, point is I've spent over 2 months tweaking this plane due to health issues, but it still makes me happy to see it here.)

Thanks in advance guys, I'll be sure to upload a 500 special once we get there, be patient might take some time.
Good look Fightin' and Flyin' Lads.
