The Sukhoi Su-15 (NATO reporting name: Flagon) is a twinjet supersonic interceptor aircraft developed by the Soviet Union. It entered service in 1965 and remained one of the front-line designs into the 1990s. The Su-15 was designed to replace the Sukhoi Su-11 and Sukhoi Su-9, which were becoming obsolete as NATO introduced newer and more capable strategic bombers.
Recognizing the limitations of the earlier Su-9 and Su-11 in intercepting the new Boeing B-52 Stratofortress, particularly in terms of radar and aircraft performance, the Sukhoi OKB quickly began the development of a heavily revised and more capable aircraft. A variety of development aircraft evolved, including the Sukhoi T-49, which shared the fuselage of the Su-9 (including its single engine), but used cheek-mounted intakes to leave the nose clear for a large radome for the RP-22 Oryol-D ("Eagle") radar (NATO "Skip Spin"), and the T-5, essentially a heavily modified Su-11 with a widened rear fuselage containing two Tumansky R-11 engines.

Too lazy to take better screenshot
Anyway VTOL for flaps, since newer android didn't have access to data folder which is f** suck so i decide to make the early version from the aircraft family

And this one have lower part count

    @Monarchii literally need flap just to take off, and in simple way I'll make the scale of the wing smaller the reshape it back to original shape although it makes the craft even more manuverable

    But i like that struggle take off

    @Monarchii pretty struggle at take off... although it become a bit too agile for old hag...maybe i can do something about it on later variant with different loadout

    @SweetSuccubus it's an interceptor right? i suppose around 4-6° of rudder rotation would be sweet, or Pitch*0.4(or 0.6)
