J-5/Mig-17

Manos, are you also considering doing a MiG-15 model?
The North Koreans appear still to be using both the two-seat MIG-15UTI and single-seat models - or at least up until 2015.
See for photo here: https://www.reddit.com/r/aviation/comments/1xllf9/mig15s_in_chongjin_airport_north_korea_story_in/
This is a photo from 2012 but Air Forces Monthly from January 2015 also has a news feature on page 32 that the North Korean MiG-15s are still flying, along with a photo of single-seat number 2033, I can scan the article and photo if you like?
The photo above was taken at Chongjin airport and if you use google maps, you can actually see a flight line full of MiG-15s.
UTI = trainer = it has no role.
The DB has its own restriction as I know therefore filling with literally useless thing is not a good idea from my POV.
IMHO not even the Su-27UB should be in the game. Or any trainer plane.
Every DB entry is very, very valuable. What would be the role of ANY trainer plane for a simulator which main goal is simulate a massive large war with dyn. campaign?
What is the role of trainer planes which are unarmed or has such weak performance which make unsuitable for the role? -

Also, I personally prefer realistic Order of Battles and care less about running into “North Korean Su-30s” which do not exist.
What you call “literally useless” , I call realism.

MiG15UTI is even weaker than J-5/J-7. There is simply no point to waste space in DB for a plane which is literally indistinguishable from a J-5 in most of cases.
Even the game engine is not able to give any real role for it because that plane has no AAM. To put a plane for 100% suicidal mission…? I do not get it…
It’s DB entry can be used any better idea. For example even it never was manufactured but many ppl. love you could put it the F-20 Tigershark…
There are alternative campaigns in 4.34 which are purely fictional. F-20 fits well into this approach. -

Also:
Armament
2 × 23 mm Nudelman-Rikhter NR-23 autocannon in the lower left fuselage (80 rounds per gun, 160 rounds total)
1 × 37 mm Nudelman N-37 autocannon in the lower right fuselage (40 rounds total)
2 × 100 kg (220 lb) bombs, drop tanks, or unguided rockets on 2 underwing hardpointsBack to db… If everybody where thinking (ill say again with current db specs and not older like .33 and back) they way we did before braking the 2gb barrier then whats the point of either redoing some models or making new ones that needs new entries in the db? Ltes just do few corrections to the current models and leave it as is… No F1, No Su33, no Yak,No f-18,no new Vehicles just plain stock db models that most of them dates back to the start of Falcon it self almost. You want and F-20? CCC has a beautiful one i think make a new entry in the db and there you go, or even better make one! We have all the means currently to do whatever we want in the db there’s no limits (i guess)
My 2 cents
CheersEDIT: If we take seriously what this Sim is firstly made for then yes most of the models are waste of space if not all of them… lets stay limited at whatever has afm’s and few bandits, I guess that would make the dav’s life easier too

As I know we have still other limitation. If I’m wrong of course, whatever.
But check 4.34. Most of F-4s were deleted…
About F-20. We have done it from my MOD.
It is also present in 4.34 Korea 80s.

I think im back Sorry for not beeing around… Still things are difficult so i have No1 priority to find a job but whenever i have time i will try to focus on my models as well. I hope i didnt over do it (therefore the front wheel seems very simple,not too much of pipes/wires going on)
