Flyable Su-22M4 (by civorodom)

[CivorodoM]

Hello everyone,
The Su-22M4 mod is under development and it is almost done.
It will be flyable in the Su-25T cockpit, uses a 3D model from the AI-only Su-17 with greatly improved textures.
Release is expected between 17th and 25th June 2024 in DCS user files.

Finally, a Su-22 that doesn't look like it's from the year 2000.

Could you make a version with Su-25A cockpit?

Maybe I will add a Su-22M3 with this cockpit later.

[Stratos]

Looking forward to fly it!!

hello by civorodom. it is simply nothing more than a renaming of the Su-17M4 AI from ED. since the model does not have an Args141, the pilot stays in the plane when using a cockpit like the Su-25. you have to choose a position for the Su-25 cockpit that is higher up, i.e. outside the plane.

[Avimimus]

Are there any fixes to the flight model planned? An issue with all of the previous flyable Su-17 mods has been that it gets stuck in a weird stall if the angle-of-attack increases too much! Some of the mods also had a lot of oscillations in pitch at certain speeds.

A very well done module. It is a great contribution to the DCS community in general and in particular a great joy for all simmers who want to seriously pursue Cold War simulation. Thank you very much for your work.

Hm, Could we get Mig-27 with simmilar cockpit?

I like this mod!

Added a little varnish and shine to the texture to make the model look newer

Do you know how to activate the drag chute?

Hello Stratos! I would have expected a little more knowledge from you. Didn't you just write before that everything is perfect? Correct, the view of the cockpit is 2 meters above the hood of the Su-17M4 model from ED. On github you can get all of ED's AI to fly. In the model lua there is the entry "brakeshute_name". For this specialist CivorodoM, this has a zero, which means no function. Everything is just copied anyway. Replace the zero with a four and the brake parachute works. Key combination "P". The bicycle has been reinvented, you can quickly turn a Su-17M4 into a Su-22M4. No additional details were modeled, apart from tinkering with the weapon data. I am curious to see whether it will still be possible to use the FC3 cockpits after the FC2024 update.
Hello tripod3! There is an official PSD for the Su-17M4. it is very clean with a resolution of 4096x4096. "SU-17-OKRAS-01 TEMPLATE by Wodzu" you can then create a better roughmet so that not only the paint is visible. the Su-17M4 has no normals. so that you can see lines and rivets on the skin you can use these layers in the roughmet. yellow is best for this.

[Stratos]

Very kind! Thanks for sharing your wisdom.

Only the left hand cannon seems to be working?

P.S. Regarding the flight model - if there was a way to produce a more severe high AoA stall, it might prevent getting into the weird spin state.

Yes, only the left one works for now, will try to add right one in a next update. About AoA I will see if it is possible to improve something there.

Since the latest DCS update, the landing gear, flaps, speedbrakes and some other systems stopped working.

Almost all mods don't work since latest 2.9.6 update. I am trying to fix these things.

[VinntoreZ]

Thanks, looking forward to have a working mod again.
Could you also make the drag chute work too? That would be great.

Drag chute is easy thing now, I know how to fix it, but other commands are bigger problem since latest update.
