@Menrva Thank you very much for your words and it would be a real honor to contribute a grain of sand to the emblematic ODS project... In truth, the TMF models are still very good and I will continue with new awacs based on this same mod.

I just took the phrase from Lock On 2 controls page This is how wing leveler called there

@PeacePuma Great job mate! Do you mind if I include this in the next iteration of the ODS 30AE mod? With due credits to you of course. The E-3D we use has a number of issues, so this E-3A with fake-pilot CFM engines should be a much better alternative.

My good friend, Yes it's the old TMF sentry, I've given it a new life with a simple fake pilot (seat) addon... In fact veltro2k made a similar mod but with their own 3d models, the difference here is that the TMF model It allows you to work with more detailed skins and it has more animated elements... there were also certain inaccuracies that I managed to solve with this mod... taking advantage of the comment I anticipate that I will follow the logical course with a next E-3f sentry and then I will end this series with the AEWS Phalcon and Condor from Israel and Chile respectively

P.S And I always remember that each cockpit is the author's work, sometimes several people, I always express my gratitude to them, and of course, this is their work (my only small little corrections that I made only for myself and just decided to share with the community).

In this case, "Приведение к горизонту" is a more accurate phrase.Yes, but you need to look at the option of a specific system / cockpit. Perhaps this is in civil aviation, but I did not see it specifically in the military. "Автопилот", "Горизонт", this is what it looks like. I have also seen "photo textures" (that's what I call them) in some cockpits (side panels, etc). In some cases, they can be left as is. About MiG -23: I came across several options here (and before), some new works are worse than old ones (in my opinion, I do not urge you to agree with me). I have variants of the MiG 23 MLA/MLD and some of them look good in my opinion (may be tweaked a bit).

P.P.S For example, cockpits MiG-19 P/PM (to illustrate my words above) cockpits in other sim games. 1. Very similar (DSC World). 2. Not correct (War Thunder). 3. The average option is "as far as possible" (Strike Fighters 2).

OK. I plan to continue this work (I'm interested in it).

I try to do this using up-to-date photos and diagrams (sometimes they simply don’t exist, they haven’t been preserved, there was secrecy, etc.), as much as possible, and I find the “average” option, because: 1. On some USSR aircraft of the same model, but different series, the sights, reticles, equipment used sometimes differ, so it’s difficult to do it 100% like in the original cockpits (or you need to model in 3D, which I don’t have time for). 2. Therefore, I always write in the annotations "done as far as possible." 3. 3d models of some cockpits here are different (although approximately similar) to real ones, so you have to choose the average option from all possible ones. P.S. If there is no information, then I proceed from the purpose of this system / switch, using terminology, for example, the term "Ровный полет" does not exist. but there is "Триммер", "Триммеры" well, etc.
