Is there a chance we already have an AI version ready to deploy in theaters of operations? It would boost immersion and curb the hype for this upcoming mod. So cool!

I'm considering that and that was a plan way back when I started this project.

I think the release is too soon to release "half-mods".

Speaking of AI, since the aircraft has increased weight so it behaves more realistically with Su-27 Flight Model - AI has some problems taking off, often crashing at the end of runway or just flying on AB non stop to stay airborne. I'm trying to fix it but there's a chance it'll stay like that untill we get CWS and with that a inside-modified FM.

Hope you enjoy another Su-22 mod showcase, despite replay for external views being buggy and me missing some missile shots.
This time, most of the cockpit is clickable, it has proper cold start, custom sounds for engine or launch authorised and more!
Everything is still work in progress, estimated release Q4 2025.

OMG! I can't believe I haven't subbed to your channel before!
This deserves to become a full module!
Go man!

Świetna robota VinntoreZ, dawno na nic tak nie czekałem jak na ten samolot. Dzięki za Twój czas i to że Ci się chce.   (Great job VinntoreZ, I haven't looked forward to anything as much as this plane in a long time. Thanks for your time and for being so eager.)

This looks really cool. As I understand it, the TV seekers issue has not yet been resolved?

Super. Small remarks that can simply be eliminated.
1. Ladder is retracted only for engine starting and equipment check. After that, the technician, making sure that everything is working properly, descends from the stepladder.
2. LE flaps are extended only at combined with TE flaps.

What issue?

You wrote that there would be no TV yet. There you need to switch to avionics 25T and you will look for "workarounds".

No, I won't switch to Su-25T avionics because people will use it as it has TGP, which Su-22 didn't have. The TV screen was used only for Kh-29T seeker feed and Wyuga elint system.

Su-25A avionics have identical gunsight and weapon system as in Su-22. This will do for now.

If the CWS guy will not be as busy with Su-30 and 35 for Codename Flanker, he might cook a CWS for Su-22 - already talked with him about it and he agreed - that will allow it to have working TV while still having Su-25A avionics.

Moreover, mod is made in such a way that switching avionics to su-25t will render it useless and most things won't work properly.

You might like it or not but that is my decision - I am not letting people do things with my mod that shouldn't be done.

No, I totally agree. I was just wondering how X-29T and other TV would work

They work as the Kh-29L, they just aren't guided by laser rather locking to a point on the ground and sometimes they catch a moving target
