Don’t judge this for now
I will judge… it is beautiful!!!

Are you kidding right?
Jokes aside… great model man!!!

Hello,
Since KF-21 project was completed, I have been trying to convert my Su-27 into a Su-30.
That’s not an easy task, as Su-27 was built from a Su-33… Let you guess the quality of the heavily modified mesh.
Nevertheless, I am happy to showcase several first screenshots.
Don’t judge this for now, because it’s still a Frankenflanker : I am gathering parts to have something satisfactory.
Here is what I expect :
- Su-30 M2, Russian Air Force
- Su-30SM2, Russian Air Force
- Su-30MKK, People’s Liberation Army Air Force
- J-16, People’s Liberation Army Air Force
- J-16D, People’s Liberation Army Air Force
Of course, it will not be a single model, because some have canards, some not, some have a variant of tails, some have other (Su-30SM2 and J16 for example), some have IRST, some no (J-16D do not have)…
For now, I am still exploring what I can do, but I guess that we are on the good path!
Stay tuned!

This project is a dream come true. As a visual identification geek from the Flanker family, I can only say that I am very happy to see that we will have new models thanks to Radium.
As a suggestion, it would be great to take advantage of the opportunity and effort to also have new models for the Su-27UB Flanker-C (centered IRST and RWR antennas in the intakes like the Su-27S/P Flanker-B) and the Su-30SM Flanker-H (which is the same externally as the Indian Su-30MKI and the Algerian Su-30MKA). External differences between the new Su-30SM2 and the previous Su-30SM are few. This link could be useful as a reference for Flanker-H https://redsamovar.com/2024/04/10/actu-le-sukhoi-su-30sm2/ -
@Dardo_01 man, why are you so obsessed with antennas and IRST ? It looks like it’s your only concern.
I will make everything as realistic as possible. Period.

@Radium hahaha, sorry. I love your work and I know that you do it perfectly. As you know, antennas and IRST position are the best way to identify the different versions of the Flanker family.

Oh my gosh…
Just saw your messages right now. To switch off everything here I never planned to make a Venezuela Sukhoi Su-30MKV, final period. There is nothing here against this charming country it’s simply because I have to limit myself and have to make some choices. For Su-30 I desired to limit myself to KTO environment.
This project is made only with Google Images references, for the simple reason that everything I need is there.
Secondly, I don’t understand anything about the inclusion in this his thread about this Venezuela state agency. That’s beyond me.
I just do a model for entertainment purpose, it’s just like an artistic drawing.
Let’s be clear : I already decided not to make one Su-30 variant to avoid political retrieval and propaganda.
If ever there is some political debates around Su-30 I will just purely and simply cancel the project, period. I made it for you guys (the community) because I am not really interested by this aircraft but lots of you wrote or told me how much they wanted it.
Coming back to my polygons.

Dear @Radium , my sincere apologies on this issue here. My respect to you and your work.
Greetings.

Hello,
just to let you know that after careful study, there will be no Su-27UB (conversion fighter) with this project Main reason is that all my Su-27 are refuel probe equipped (I can’t segregate it, like tails), and because Su-27UB relevance is quite low, as a pure conversion aircraft.
So, no Su-27UB
Refuel drogue is now here, such as custom ladders.
I also segregated Su-27M2 style tails and SM2 variant. I still have some work to finish the cockpit, and I will build the nex nose gear, from the one I did for Su-35.
I deleted all texture baking (Mental Ray and Vray), I will redo them later.
Stay tuned !
Radium !

Oh that’s gorgeous

Hello,
some updates :
Most of our Su-30M2 is now there… It starts to look good !
Unwrapping is not fully updated and there is still some details to take care about…
Nevertless, it’s going well !

@Radium Greetings Radium… I have a question.
What type of avionics will the SU30SM use for AA and AG missiles?
-
Hello Alejandro, I don’t really understand your question…
You mean which payload ? If so, it’s gonna be the regular payload described in all public information.
If avionics, this plane is devoted to be an AI aircraft (no russian avionics for now), therefore, it will be a customized F-16 avionics suite.

@Radium Ohhhh then it will be used for AI in the campaigns, what a good job… Maybe in the future I will sit down to make a 3D cockpit model of the Sukhoi but first I have to finish the beta of the F-16A
Awesome work Radium! -

Are you doing a F-16A cockpit?
