Hi guys! ;D
                 anyone know where I can find a Mig 29 'Fulcrum', that supersonic jet the russians made that came out the sametime as concorde, Tupolev Tu-22 'Backfire', Tupolev Tu-160 'Blackjack' and the Sukhoi Su-27/30 family.
Ben  ;D

P.S none of the Alpha Sim planes are any good.

There are a couple of Mig-29 models out, try either here or flightsim.com. I think I also saw an Su-27 around somewhere, buts its been a while.

russian language sites:
www.flightsim.ru, lots of aircraft, good panels, FS2004 update for the Tu-154B2 which you need.
www.avsim.ru, loads of repaints, Tu-154B panel V4, needed for the fix from the site above this one.

Dimitri Samborski has made some nice antonovs (an-22, an-24, an-26), Tu-114, Il-86 in the pipeline
There is a gmax An-14 floating around on simviation
Tu-134 is on www.avsim.ru, 2 different models: one is a A-3 only, the other one does all variants. last one has more repaints.

FS-FAB has a Su-35(UB), Su-25, Su-22 and Su-39. download section is down at the moment... :(
I've spotted a Tu-160 somewhere on the web

Further to Ivan's comments; unfortunately the FS-FAB site seems to be having some download problems, which is a shame as they have some decent Russian stuff.  They have a very reasonable Su-24, which I wnat to download, but can't; does anybody know if it has turned up on any other sites?

Do a search here on SimV for the Su-27 Flanker, there are a number of good versions available - unfortunately no twin seaters, unless anybody else can tell me otherwise.  Similarly, the Tu-144 'Concordski' is here on SimV, although you will need to add sound etc.

The Tu-160 is available over on Flightsim/nonodes; do a search on TU-160 and you will get the original beta, plus a number of updates including a rather nice panel - don't know how accurate that it is though!!

DSB/Sierra Hotel/TLUK have some others in development, maybe if they are passing by this forum they could kindly give us an update.

Hope that's of some help.

Tu-144 and Tu-160

You can dig through FSdome.com for the Da Silva flankers... could be somewhere in there

The da Silva Flankers are actually here on SimV, but I prefer the versions by Peter Davies; his Su-37, with the thrust vectoring nozzles, is really something special.

As for MiG 29's, the only real game in town is the series by Barney Bigard - they don't look quite right, but they fly ok!

Oh, and as well as another source for the Su-24's, does anybody know if there is an Il-38 Coot out there?
