+76.IAP-Blackbird Posted January 18, 2013 Posted January 18, 2013 I have worked on this bird long time ago, with Ravenclaws, Florians, FC and Russos help and the problems on the MiG-29K I have managed to find a solution for my own Navy project. Some of you remember this bird. current WIP shots: I still have some probs and I hope I get them solved with the help of the comunity. Its also ingame and the FM was done by JAT, im very satisfied with his work. 6 Quote

Lazarus1177 Posted January 19, 2013 Posted January 19, 2013 Great Bird you got there!Didn't know the Russian Navy had these. Quote
fallenphoenix1986 Posted January 19, 2013 Posted January 19, 2013 Was hoping you would get back to this one :) Don't suppose anyone knows why they went with side by side rater than tandem ala Su-30? As I understand it this bird is the trainer for the Su-33 but is still a fully capable fighter in its own right. Craig Quote
MigBuster Posted January 19, 2013 Posted January 19, 2013 YGordons book mentions Visibility, communication and easier to use the carriers VASI 1 Quote
+76.IAP-Blackbird Posted January 19, 2013 Author Posted January 19, 2013 I have no idea about the real life status of this bird. Seems the Su-33 is outdated for soviet carriers. This KUB is ment to be used asa Attack Plane so far I know Quote
DoctorWho Posted January 20, 2013 Posted January 20, 2013 The KUB version evolved into Su-34 strike aircraft. Quote
+Spillone104 Posted January 20, 2013 Posted January 20, 2013 To be honest the Su-34 was created before the Su-33UB. The first flight of the Su-34 was in 1990 and at the time it was known as Su-27IB, then Su-32FN in the mid 90's and finally Su-34. The first flight of the Su-33UB happened only in 1999 and the name was Su-27KUB. Quote
Centurion-1 Posted January 20, 2013 Posted January 20, 2013 Looks great! So how is this different from VVS/PVO Su-34? How many polys is that? Quote
fallenphoenix1986 Posted January 20, 2013 Posted January 20, 2013 Thanks MB. Aside from naval features, the main gear feature one wheel rather than 2, the tail boom is shorter and it has a different nose profile due to alternate radar. Dare say theres more than that but those are the features that stand out to me. Craig Quote
+Soulfreak Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 Will we ever see this bird in the download section Martin? Quote
+76.IAP-Blackbird Posted January 22, 2013 Author Posted January 22, 2013 I would say yes! Im solving more and more problems so far. If you like I could send you the plane next month "unmapped" so you can cross check it and tell me what you like and what not. So I can work it out to the current SF2 addon standart. You are more familiar with it than me ;) Only if you like 1 Quote
+Soulfreak Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 I would like, but I have too many projects ongoing, so that i won´t have time for anything more Martin.... Quote
+76.IAP-Blackbird Posted January 22, 2013 Author Posted January 22, 2013 Its not another paintjob, just a "tell me what you think!?" job ;) Quote
