SU-15 Flagon by Marco1985_IT

[LCO489]

Hi all, with the permission of the Autor Marco1985_IT and with help of VSN Team, I present you the SU-15 Flagon AI Mod. It provides you the A and TM versions, with custom R8R, R8T, R98MR and R98MT (NATO sign AA-3 ANAB). 

You can download it here and start busting some Boeing or protecting them.

Thank you. 

Enjoy!

This is excellent work -- thank you!

 

Looking forward to that Il-28 you have cooking, too.

 

Have you given any thought to making the Yak-28 or Tu-128?

Thanks a lot, great Mod, works perfectly as AI background aircraft on my cold war missions. The bare metal effect is very nicely done, the only improvement I would love to see is support for Bort numbers, to allow more variation when one has several of these aircrafts on a mission, but overall an invaluable addition to cold war DCS

This mod is really good!

[Fab8ball]

Absolutely stunning mod. Would be amazing to have a flyable version with a realistic cockpit. Thanks a lot Marco_1985_IT!!!

Hello everyone, and thank you for the appreciation.

About other mods WIP, thera are the Il-28 Beagle with Don Rudi and the Tu-22 Blinder with Hawkeye60.

Here some very preliminar screenshot.

The Il-28 is a favorite of mine ... had the chance to see one up close, at the Luftwaffe Museum, on 2018:

Hi, Rudel, despite its not dynamic numbers, it does have liveries with numbers included in both versions.

Yes, and it is appreciated, but bort numbers are both more efficient disk-space-wise and allow for a far greater variety of serial numbers, and it is a nice feature of DCS that is nowadays  little used by skin creators .. I understand that a problem with bort numbers is that their placement is fixed on the aircraft's skin and that means that usually it can't be used for skins that have their serials in a different place than default, as is the case often with liveries of export countries.

Anyway, thanks a lot for building up the variety of aircraft assets for DCS ... looking forward to your Blinder and Beagle   bombers are more desirable for me, as they can be used as targets more easily than interceptors. Would love to have a B-47 or B-58 for US, plus Mirage IV or Avro Vulcan for Europe, to be used as enemies for my MiG-21

 

Edit: Great article about flying this aircraft:  https://hushkit.net/2019/04/26/interview-with-soviet-air-force-su-15-flagon-fighter-pilot-defending-the-ussr/

These are outstanding and have been desperately needed for a long time. Just amazing. For your consideration if any appropriate model is available. The Yak-38. (No but seriously thank you for these.)

Thanks to everyone involved. 

[Hallsy]

Great models. Su-15 is a favourite of mine and has allowed for many new PVO mission possibilities. The IL-28 will be awesome for fleshing out a Korea scenario.

Some of custom weapons ready for Soviet bombers WIP, models mine

It's possible to have the template of the Su-15?

Of course, but I need to prepare, not yet done! When ready I will share here!

[Sukok]

Thanks!!

After the new update I can no longer select the Su-15. It shows up in the encylopdia. But under aircraft in the mission editor it is not available. I have disabled all other mods. I have noticed that missions with it already inserted it is still there. I hope this helps to fixing it. Thanks for this mod. Its great.

then check that your mission editor has the historic filter disabled (the clock icon on the ME status bar), as no user mod is compatible with that filter.

[DerRedMax]

That was the problem. Thank you for your response.

[flavnet]

Indeed, the Su-15 is no longer flyable even though it appears among the selectable aircraft.

The Su-15 was never flyable, it is AI only ... I use it to provide backstage action on some of my cold war missions.

[flavnet]

OOOPS!! OK

Hi Kolpakov_79! I saw only one image with a double R-60 in the inner pylons at a Flagon (can t find again)  but I read that was only a test. So I didn t include them in the mod. External pylons were only for Anab missiles for what I know

[kolpakov_79]

Yes. It's hard to find information now. Only if in old libraries.
