@JuanNotAnAlt the su-27 did not have thrust vectoring. That would be later models from the Sukhoi family. I wish to implement fly-by-wire, but I still haven't learn to work it out..
As for custom wings It's something i'm not very fond of to be honest. It tends to make wings look blocky or messy unless you make it perfect... I'd rather keep it simple but that's me...
@Zalyarowsky It's a lazy build, just built it coz I could, didn't bother too much with details... Including the baydoor systems for that matter.
For better dogfighting this plane would need fly-by-wire. Like many modern fighters, the planes are inherintly unstable and can only fly properly with fly-by-wire technology. Frankly, I have no idea how to implement in game...
If you know how to fix the engine problem, please share! I couldn't find out why it does it!
@asteroidbook345 I heard about the mis-designation. Could you please provide the proper designation and if there is any documentation saying so. Many news outlets have already stuck to the su-75 bandwagon apparently...
Just released My own Su-75 - Credit were credit is due, thank you for giving me the idea on how to fix the air intake! Was bothering me so much on how to fix it!!
Just like many of today's fighter projects, the policy works mostly as follows:
1 - Data Platform - The plane needs to be able to be the forward eyes as well as able providing targeting data to its allies. Computation power and information are key to a successful aircraft.
2 - CHEAP - If a plane is ludicrously expensive, your only client is gonna be your country (ex. F-22). If you can sell it to your allies, you're guaranteed that many countries will take the plane for a bargain, and try their best to remain your allies through support.
3 - "Stealth" - This has taken a backseat in reality. These planes might have a smaller radar cross-section than previous generation fighters, but by no means are they F-117 stealthy. Because of improved radar technology and identification techniques have improved, it would COST MUCH MORE to develop a technology to counter the new radar (hence pointer 2)
4 - Manoeuvrability. Most of these planes have reached the apex of human limits when it comes to manoeuvrability. It makes no sense to make a plane so manoeuvrable that would kill its pilot with insane over-the-top G-limit rolls. Fly-by-wire can calculate the best limits in order to keep the pilot safe, but in which case, if you intend the make a flying-gymnastic machine, you would need to resort to UAVs instead.
These 4 pointers are the cornerstone to today's planes and dictate what kind of planes are considered "top-of-the-range". Be it the F-35, JF-17, SU-75, FC-31, Tejas, X-2, etc...
Best AV-8B in simpleplanes! VERY good job! I got this for DCS and I got a love-hate relationship with this plane... I can sense the same here; it flies and feels the same here! Keep it up mate!!!
@recycledcake255 The 3 (originally 4) iconic planes that protected the airspace of Malta during WW2. They most famously helped defend the convoy "Santa Maria" with food supplies for our country during a time of severe famine.
Gorgeous Mig-29, I really love the modelling work! Keep it up! As for performance, it maneuvers a little slower than the real deal. Like the F-16 the plane is designed to be intentionally unstable. Other than that nitpick, very very good work! Even better than mine!!
@Tang0five Thanks for the advice! Helped a lot!

Thanks for your criticism :)
+3@JuanNotAnAlt Thanks, still updating details lol
Please, try it out, and let me know what you think
Nice try! Keep up the good work :)
+1@LightningTreeSavor would be awesome, but no.
it's Light Tactical Aircraft [Legkij Takticheskie Samolyet]
+1Gorgeous plane!!! This deserves sooo many more Upvotes!!
+1This is gorgeous! Keep it up!!!!
@KfcGaming This project was never realised. Further details in Mustard's youtube video available above.
+1@KfcGaming Do you mean in-game or real-life?
Good try!! Keep it up!
+1Have done the su-75 myself, so I understand the challenges in building one...
I SEE INTRUMENTATION GAUGES!
I SEE INTERACTABLE CONTROLS!
Will these be in the base game? (blinking eyes of hope)
+8@Xx24reminder Beats me... I'm presuming there's a reason, (ex. design number) but don't know... Interesting topic to research!!
+1@Xx24reminder That would be the T-50 / SU-57 Felon, Not the T-75 / SU-75 Checkmate. 2 Different planes.
@MuizTheMobileFriendly It took me a while to see it but put a smile on my face as well :D

+1@Xx24reminder It's a T-75.. not T-70... shrugs
@Zalyarowsky As per description... No idea how the user got it though...
+1@Haytham115 Feel free to fix it as a successor :)
@asteroidbook345 Confirmed and fixed, thanks!

YAY! a VTOL swing-wing! :D
Gorgeous bomber! Keep it up!

+1Very neat! love the design... wonder if it is possible to make the armaments slow enough to shoot itself...
+3Very nice design!! Keep up the good work!
Very nice! Keep it up!!!
+1If you wish to get rid of the gyro controls, ensure that the Weight balance of the heli is right under the main rotor.
nyyccee!!!
+1@FaulWercht By all means! Go right ahead :)
Just @ me if you rework any of my planes.
@PxVector I tried pretty hard to find the cause of the auto-roll but I can't seem to find what's causing it :/
Now I can fly with this song!!!
+1Awesome plane!!! Keep it up :D
+1Nice plane as always.. wierd design though.. (personal tastes I suppose)
+1My reaction...
gorgeous barrel xD

Really like the simpilicity of it. Would have personally tweaked a bit the airbrakes, but that's me..
@Tatti123456 It did very well in the competition, met the criteria very well! You deserved the 2nd place :)
@ssenmodnar Not many people entered the competition. And it performed the best from the rest.... Pure chance xD

3RD PLACE: @jdab5 's SHC (stable hover-craft) MK III
4TH PLACE: @LieutenantSOT 's THIME Blimp Experiment 1
interesting design, although it maneuvers that tad bit too slow... Suggest you drop a bit more drag points, perhaps would help a bit?
@Stinky Agreed, still feel it's better than mine!!

Very interesting design! I like it :D
