@Radium
Im late to the party but i wanna add some thoughts (not that im an expert orwhatever but i will say why)
AGM-78 was a huge missile in general but was a heck of a weapon and far better than the Shrikes if you look for pics carried by the F-4G’s yu will see how big it is so its not unrealistic as you said. I wouldn’t be surprised if IDF/IAF had special pylons just for them. Why im saying this? cause i know for sure they did had manufactured for example different spacers for the Aero-3 (if i remember correct) racks for the F-4 so they can load up the Python witch the rear wings was a bit bigger than aim-9 but also to have a “safety” distance from A/G weapons that could be loaded on the main pylon.

@Manos1981 Hello Manos,
In fact, your remark is super good.
This is the reason why ;
I did AGM-78 custom pilon

@Magnum1964 Hello, that’s really strange, I didn’t noticed this. @vAiCon @TOPOLO any idea ?
-
@Radium Maybe it is caused by my joystick. I will check it later this evening. I calibrated the joystick and I don’t see it with the other F-16’s. Anyway, thanks for your reply.

@Radium Nothing I know at least

@Magnum1964: I have seen this, occasionally when replacing an existing a/c or parent with a custom .lod if they do not have the same number of HP. For example if I replace the MiG-21 with Radium’s Su-33, it will act like only the first five HP are loaded due to the MiG parent having only 5 HP and cause an uncommanded roll towards HP 1-5. Oddly, it does not always happen and seems fairly hard to predict.

Hello everyone !
Bringing Lavi cockpit to the best level!
Basically, only the seat is missing, and also the canopy frame.
Stay tuned !

Looking amazing @Radium. The only thing I think that You could look at improving is there shape of the throttle.
To my eyes this image shows a handle that is tilted up at about 40 degrees. And offers a nice rest for the pilots hand. I don’t see the TDC being on the end. Maybe you have some other photos?

@SOBO-87 Hello ! This is a very good remark. At first, my throttle was like that. In fact, I later found that it was just impossible to pilot with a throttle like that (I even made some real life experiments with some cardboard and fabric. In fact, I believe that the throttle on this picture was rotated, to make pictures.
This is always what is difficult with this kind of work : you need to figure our the difference between what is shown and what it would have been in reality.
Nevertheless, I don’t mean I am right, I just did what looked the best to me !

Hello everyone,
I am very happy to show you the progress of Lavi cockpit.
I have to confess that I more and more worry about the unwrapping nightmare it’s gonna me. But anyway, must do it !
This time, I will not share ingame video, because non-texture polygons trend to be so dark that you can barely see what’s inside a complex cockpit.
Here you go :
As you see, ejection seat it fully done. It was very painful, as MK10 used on Lavi was as far as I know, unique.
Here you go for the full model :
Some might think that it’s close to what exists on F-18, but it is really different.
I hope you will like it !
Best regards,
Radium

I don’t know how you are as a pilot. but as a 3d artist you have an unmatched talent. I certify it.

@VIPER-0 Not sure if I was a good pilot. But what is sure is that long time ago I kinda flew a lot !
