Hi Mizzy,i don't have any Prior Experience Making Official modules,i have done some simple modding for the Past 9 Months ( PAK FA PROJECT) but I do know what I need to Reach Eagle Dynamics Standard Level,this is my First Attempt that has a Possibility for me due to having the needed War record and Data to make the Aircraft. DCS Standards In order to Meet DCS Standards I have to Work Really Hard in making my projects Extremely Good in all areas and ShowCase my work to eagle Dynamics When Ready,Only then I will know if they do indeed Meet the requirements to make it into DCS and Of Course the Community is my Job to Do my best and Bring a great Example to DCS. F-84 ThunderJet Standard My Own Created Cockpit. My Own Created External model Aircraft Systems Aircraft Flight model Aircraft Weapons Documentation Proof Of Licensing For the Aircraft Being Worked on Flight Manual Technical Manual Tons of Technical and Flight Model Charts of its envelope ex. and lots more.

You might be Correct, I have also done some research and looked at the manuals and Technical data and it does state it did had a radar but it does not say how it worked ,it just says ranged radar and that it was a APG-30 paired with ether K-14 or A1-C Gunsight for both bombing runs or rocket use and guns for air to air. Seems later models like the D/E and G had those radars only. F-84D J35-A-17D engine, Sperry AN/APG-30 radar-ranging gunsight, retractable attachments for RATO bottles, inboard wing hardpoints made "wet" to permit carrying an additional pair of 230 U.S. gal (870 L) fuel tanks. Most aircraft were retrofitted with F-84G-style reinforced canopies. The fuselage was stretched 15"; the canopy was lengthened 8", the canopy frame was lengthened 12" (accounting for another 4"), and a 3" splice panel was added aft of the canopy. The stretch was not done to enlarge the cockpit but rather to enable a larger fuel tank, provide additional space for equipment under the canopy behind the pilot's seat, and to improve aerodynamics. This can be distinguished from earlier models by the presence of two fuel vents on ventral rear fuselage, the added radar in the nose splitter, and the pitot tube was moved downward from mid-height in the splitter (as on the F-84D) to clear the radar installation. 843 built. F-84E 49-2031 was a test aircraft for air-to-air missiles. F-84E 50-1115 was a test aircraft for the FICON project.

YF-23 will continue to be in the works but as a Technology Example, I am missing Flight data and the YF-23 cant be completed without it same as SU-57. The F-84 in the other hand is a aircraft that has war history and documentation like NACA charts,Test Flight Reports,Manuals ex. I have made the Mistake of trying to make Aircraft that were to Classified to make them happen that's the truth,i have come to a point that I want to leave the past behind and start over and create a Aircraft that I would really have a chance making it into DCS someday.

Hi Drphibes,Thank you for pointing this out I had not yet add more information about the radar and Different gunsights Used Depending on Variant Went to bed Late and had to continue this morning,The F-84 had many Variants and later models had the AN/APG-30 radar-ranging gunsight paired with the K-14/A1-C/A-4 gunsight depending on Variant. The radar Worked in a way that it projected trajectory of the target where it would end up therefore making it easier to Shoot at. The F84D/E/G variants all used with the APG-30 and A1-C Gun/Rocket/Bomb Sight,Earlier Models Used the K-14 Gunsight. As to where I got the information,Many places Including the Flight Manual Depending on Variants also Technical Manuals along with Reading Hystory About this Aircraft. ABOUT FLIGHT MODEL Also to Make the Flight model I have Many Naca Data on this aircraft Including Real test Flights with Charts and Formulas. Credits goes to Gos ,Gasi,Sinus for pointing me in the right Direction when it comes to Finding the correct Tools and information to use ex.

Merry Christmas everyone . i worked on the Rudder conf this time to give the SU-57 a more control at near stall Speeds and simulate Vectored Thrust with Yaw and Pitch. Below sertain speeds Yaw does not really work that well and that is realistic to normal Aircraft without Thrust Vectoring so i did a few test Flights to see if i could improved its Yaw control at Low to near stall speeds,it will get better this was just a quick video of the custom Yaw at this moment. Next Update on the Works.:D

3d Work. Some More work on the MFDs and HUd Control Panel.:D

I am Using Auto Desk Flow Design a Wind Tunnel Tool . I will have one of the Pilots Test Fly her when in a more Advanced State to see where she stands,I have also received another package stating all the different parts used from different planes that made the YF-23 fly in order to model those systems. Remember this is aimed at beeing a Technology Demonstrator and for me to learn on my own all sort of things while I make a more simple Aircraft that does have all the needed Documentations.

I agree ,the radar and weapons systems never came to be on this Aircraft as a prototype and remain classified but we already know what Radar and weapon system it would of used if it we're not to loose against the F-22 Raptor, The Flight systems and other systems that Run the Aircraft are unclassified on the Utility Flight Manual ,so that being said I will Model this Aircraft as it was A Technology Demonstrator and not a Firing PlatForm.

Check my FB page for details regarding Projects that I don't have unclassified data for. The Su-17M4 I have little to no data to fully Simulate it. The Su-57 Pak Fa No unclassified data ether so it cant be fully Modeled Ether. "News" I will no longer waste my Effort in aircraft that I cant get data on,so. Su-17 is on hold until I get the needed Information. Su-57 will stay like it is for along time due to it being a Prototype. The YF-23A ,I have unclassified Utility Flight Manual and its my First Project that I can Create Everything From Scratch due to Prints and Data found on the Manual,This is a PlatForm for me to learn more modeling and coding on my own. "Note" I will Continue Updating the Su-57 and Su-17 as more information Arrives. There is still a lot I need to Work on and improve. 3d modeling Coding EFM Making ASM Art Developing Licensing

Happy Early Christmas I will Post More Work on the YF-23A Black Widow After Christmas. Here is Some of the Work done on the center console and hud Controls. video Preview of my Work. https://youtu.be/08Nvpau3LVk

Adding Text and numbers to the Center Console,This was early work. Console is way more advanced now and Font has been Upgraded but here is a Video Preview of my Work. Adding Center Console information. https://youtu.be/ylMX85fHr8c

No FC3 Needed Because, Everything is being modeled into the included API YF-23 is build from EFM+ASM So yes it will be fully Clickable.

SU-57 Over Nevada Latest Version Not Released Yet.:D

Only One way to improve my modeling Experience and that is by Working on Projects that would Force me to model on my OWN YF-23A is one Example.

Some more work

More Work Done. BIG Update: As progress is being made with our upcoming YF-23A mod, we have started to improve in how we respond to you guys. We have started to take an effort in better Messenger response time, and more clear/precise answers. We aim to be better, and strive to learn from our mistakes. Please take this with a grain of salt, as anything can change at any time. In other news, we have been working on the YF-23A internal modelling cockpit diligently, and hope you enjoy this picture of a good sneak peek how far we've gotten so far. Major graphic designs are being taken now with this new module, coming with better pictures and better quality made artwork. Enjoy!

YF-23 Black Widow Project Developing News/Updates . Everyone please Welcome Osmium to the Team. The Black Widow Will be modeled By Using Unclassified Data Manuals and BluePrints. Project News I will No longer work on Projects that are not unclassified,The SU-57 is an exception Because of how far it has come and because of the People that Lke it as a mod,it will be the last that I create without unclassified Data.

I have decited to make the YF-23A,you can check news at my page.

I am looking at the manual and Details and its good had pretty much Anything to start Making the YF-23A.:music_whistling: what are your skills?

I wish Could Become a reality But its still in Service in China,My Fav Chinese plane, child of the LAVI Project.:D
