I would certainly be equally happy for a Draken! But it's not a first gen fighter like You first suggested... :smilewink:

It was closely inspired by the Focke Wulf Ta 183 Huckbein.

While I am promoting the J-29 Tunnan, I can mention that it's cockpit has already been 3D-modeled by ScaleDetalils. You can watch beautiful cockpits at ScaleDetails Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/scalecockpits/

As opposed to the Viggen the Tunnan saw actual combat. It made a great difference for the UN troops in Kongo! And it didn't only serve in the Swedish Air Force, like the Viggen did. Systems vice I guess its a quite "simple" airplane to model? (Sertanely compared to the Viggen anyway.) But it used both attack rockets and later Sidewinders.

Yes, how about SAABs J-29 Tunnan to battle it out with the Mig-15 and Sabre?

I destroyed a frigate the same way... Look from 4:30 into the vid: That Gaz physical model is just flawed. AND also notice that I flew it without SAS (look left and see the gyro turned off). And helicopter continues to run submerged at the end... :-) :-o

Please, You as a dev of this "helicopter" should know that ITS THE SAME! It's Dead in the air"...

Last time I flew it, it was like manoeuvring a moon-lander in vacuum. No response to wind or turbulence, other then drifting with the wind. Watch my video...

BUT.... .. . the laws of physics - are the same!

Yes, that FM is so simplified it's tragic. Unworthy of DCS...

What are you talking about? The devs think the FM is very close to reality!!! I don't believe it... It's like manoeuvring a moon-lander in vacuum - dosen't react to wind or anything... This must be a bad (!) joke...

Hi EagleFox, I feel just like You! What bothers me most is the totally unprofessional way in which most criticism of the Gazelle has been handled by the devs. I've been ridiculed for my avatar... They have "threatened" that there is in fact real Gazelle pilots monitoring what people write about their bird in this forums... And when the criticism hasn't stopped they have threatened that they won't listen any more... Down right childish and totally unprofessional! I'm so very disappointed with Polychop!

When I read all the fanboys defending the FM I come to think of H.C. Andersens "The emperors new clothes"! :-o

"Maverick Su-35S" has posted the best formulated questioning of the FM (I think) here: https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=178530&page=3 The Gaz FM is disconnected from the air and is much like manoeuvring a moonlander in vacuum. It can certainly be both difficult and fun, but has not much to do with rotorcraft flying...
