A: Does this aircraft has working animation? how it works?

As everyone mention above,  see the easy-step to check.

-  Open Mue's Lod viewer and "load"/open the aircraft you want.  (ex. "MiG-69A_Fullcum.ini")
-  Check on the lower left side of Lod viewer,. see if there is animations selection in there.  (Change value 0 to 9 o see how a part is animated).
-  Now go to your aircraft folder and open aircraftdata.ini  (ex. "MiG-69A_Fullcum_data.ini")
- On the notepad search "animationID= ,  SystemType= ,  InputName= , AnimationTime="  text. then you can see for example again, AnimationID=1 is related to landing gear movement, ID=2 is landing gear shock , =5 is for canopy etc. 
  each aircraft has it's own "mark". not all ID are the same, depend on how the "Kreator" animated each parts.  
- as Mr. Wrench mention above, there's max of 10 animation IDs.. not all aircraft using 'em, even some has none at all. (Some helos maybe has not, and / or UFO ).
- Many function of each animation IDs is working... Bomb / cargo bay, Canopy, Flaps, Landing gear, Engines, Nozzles, parachute/Airbrake/Speed brakes..
- If you not sure, DON"T mess all of those, some animations are "hidden" for a reason, and many should be animated are not animated. (Not all aircraft has canopy opening animation).

Welcome to the world of SF and C.A. take your time, learn here and there.. the more you plays the  many more questions you will ask. everyone here is always helpful.

thanks the thing is that when i put the settings on high it would only render half of the screen but i think the main problem is the number of planes spawning in squadrans i tried doing that but i couldn't find the specfic file for the data to change i can use some help 

Fly single mission, and edit using mission editor (Right bottom corner, pencil image). you can set up any aircraft type and size, mission of each type squadron, set up ground forces etc.

I see.. It's not a low spec,  it should be fine, almost same as my lenovo pad.
Here's what I've ever encounter.. 

Game stuttering during game, even freeze or back to windows. 
- Set graphic option to Medium.. increase to High one by one and test 'em (Detail, Shadow, Effect, view distance  terrains, horizon etc)
- Lowering the bitmap image for the aircraft.. (base TW/SF are 512 x512, but some moder has skins up to 2048 x 2048 or even 4096 x 4096)
- Number of Aircrafts flying during mission, more numbers of squadrons that fly at same time, are consuming more PC resources too.
-There's many more factor too, incompatibility between SF1/WOX to SF2 or vice versa
-Some Mod need specific requirement of the game, (In SF2, some aircraft need basic SF2 Only, SF2 Israel, SF2 Europe, SF2 Vietnam, SF2 N.A or even all merged with latest patch)
-Additional Terrain Mod, Effect, Environment also contributing with these problems, so there's so many factor and many solution too.

i have been playing this game but it has a ton of lag issues please someone give me a solution

Unless you tell us your Hardware spec and what kind of Lag you have.. we have 0 grams of solution, my friend..

The models are not mine, and I have no permission to distribute them. (Model Sauces: Converted from Devianart and free3d sites, free personal use/student).
But I learn a lot, understanding how models and data.ini works.. and you gave us a nice "Playground" to implementing them.. 
Thanks again for the Moon, Mr. Menrva!

No , but it is similar addon for Blender. Can't remember name now, but for sure it's free .

I use Decimate in tools for reducing mesh / poly numbers or percentage in blender. is this the same way to make Lod001 so on smaller too, right?

this is from call of duty.MW?

You got sharp eyes.. the Base Model is from MW3 ( so it says from someone who port and share it in D.A.  I'm not A game ripper or porter anyway), some parts the models itself has been rebuilt, primary rotor and blades (original model maybe using Uh-1Y parts or something). 
Piece by Piece, I'm gonna scratch again using available blueprint and my plastic model kit as sources..  for now I need to learn how to convert 3D works to lod, and understand how data works. (That's by meaning "School Project"   )
If this post break any rules, feel free to remove it, I understand enough not to share any Piracy or uncredited (if permission granted) stuff here.. 

(P.s. not to kiss someone backside here, but Mr. @yakarov79, I'm look up to your works, Love all your rotary birds, they are inspires me to learn.. I haven't thank you enough for that)

Finally, managed fix collision Points and Gear Rolling radius..  test Carrier Take-off/landing.. aircraftdata.ini..
Still long way to go tho..  (For someone who patiently guide me.. from really scratch how to extrude simple nodes to FM model.. yo da Man!  )
Next.. Da Crew..

references to MILF pron

Same with some friends above, I'm a Scale Modeler who likes Vietnam War subject, love sim  and FPS games, and then Wings Over Vietnam brought me deep in this tar pit, and I don't wanna get out..  
Why?
- Wide range of downloadable mods (thanks all kind modders here!)
-(maybe) The only game I know that we could fly Pre-Historic Velociraptor to F-22 Raptor.. 
-This game becomes more like sandbox to me.. (thanks to Blender, and Mue's toolbox)
-This game are tolerable with my 90's Casio Scientific Calculator Processor laptop..
-And Lads round here are more kind and feels like family than my own brother.. (wait.. ah.. I'm the only son..)

Been on hiatus a few weeks earlier, but not a single days without logging-in and check out what's goin' round here.. 
For me, for now, this forums just like "Hotel California" for me..  
All thanks to you all... Wish we all have lovely, healthy and prosper life in 2024!
