Sukhoi Su-30 (Su-27PU) Flanker-C
The Su-30 Flanker-C (Su-27PU, Punkt Upravlenija, "Control Point" or Perechvatcik Uchebnyj, "Interceptor Trainer") is the first variant of the Su-27 Flanker to be designated Su-30. It is an upgraded version of the two-seater trainer version of the Su-27, the Su-27UB. Although developed as a long-range interceptor and airborne command post for the Soviet Air Defense Forces (PVO), the Su-30 features enhanced range and multirole capabilities compared to its predecessor, with the ability to carry precision-guided munitions and air-to-surface and anti-ship missiles in addition to a variety of air-to-air weaponry.
While only five Su-30's were fielded by the PVO, modernized variants with various upgrades, such as canards and thrust vectoring, would go on to be used by the Russian Air Force and other nations, including Malaysia, India, and China. Read more...

Author's Notes
- When taking off, only a slight tap of pitch is necessary.
- On landing, pay attention to your sink rate and your angle of attack, especially if you still have munitions under the inlets.
- Full upwards VTOL makes the plane PSM. (Cobras and high alpha maneuvers, nothing fancy.)
- I reccomend resetting VTOL when dogfighting or doing heavy maneuvering.
- The fuel on this plane is unlimited.
- The ammo on the gun is unlimited.

I don't remember this being that old, weird.
can you make a version of the wing of the plane with only one layer without livery?
nice plane but unstabe
@ReinMcDeer bah no, I have other plans >:]
@ThatKindaWeeb idk lol
If you're referring to the ability to convert it into other Su-27 derivatives, that kinda just comes with the way the real Su-27 family is.
@ReinMcDeer imma be honest, I feel like I'm being spoiled with the way you designed this...
Am I being, tempted?
@ReinMcDeer Understandeble have a great day
@JamezTV on PC, trim has a reset key whereas VTOL doesn't
I don't play on mobile, so I dunno how it is for you guys
@ReinMcDeer why do you make flaps use trim instead of VTOL. VTOL is easier to access on mobile and flaps are key to turn fights so why do you use trim for flaps
@ReinMcDeer please make a J-20🙏🗿
@ReinMcDeer i meant the PSM capabilities tho and thanks for telling me you have a MiG-29,im gonna download it ^.^
@PriyanshuGM It's quite maneuverable, just very unstable :v
It can out dogfight pretty much all my current gen (F-2A onwards flight model wise) aircraft except maybe the F-16C and MiG-29A.
aight no hate.You could have added a cockpit and i wish it was a more maneuverable beacause thye're known for their maneuverability.Even tho its frickin awesome,i like it :)
@AndrewGarrison It had url=c5cS78"" I'm facepalming so hard right now... Thanks for the help
@Alvin784 Go ahead!
@Korzalerke Should be fixed now
@ReinMcDeer Yes, the URL ID will need to match this post, so you'll need to make sure it says:
url="c5cS78"
@ReinMcDeer can I make this one for Royal Malaysian Su30 MKM?
@AndrewGarrison I'm trying to update the XML for the craft, but I can't seem to get it to work.
I put the 6 digit code into the "url=" in the XML file, but when I update it I get a website error. I'm assuming that goes there since when I download the XML, that 6 digit code is there?
@ReinMcDeer I found a small issue with the plane, one of the missiles isn't connected to it's detacher so when you fire it the fuselage parts stay in place while only the missile fires, the alt configs don't have this problem.
@ReinMcDeer Good Work, I need the Flanker-D for this livery tho
Yes give it crack mate! It’d benefit your builds amazingly!
Keep up the flight model stuff too, it does wonders for your builds. @ReinMcDeer
@Kangy Thanks!
I've never really cared much about cockpits personally, but I have been considering doing low-fidelity cockpits.
I LOVE this build!
The flight model is really fun even though it’s not like a DCS flight model are anything
And the looks for the simplicity of it are awesome!
You should start building cockpits however, otherwise you won’t keep up with other builders, although I don’t know if anyone would worry if you kept this awesome style you have.
shut up and take my upvote
@Musraskrois Thank you!
@Korzalerke Yeah, this thing is nasty in low speed turning fights if you can manage the instability.
I too enjoy pitting planes against each other a la Growling Sidewinder style :)
