Yak-141

Description
A step change in capability from the Yak-38, the Yak-41 - known as the Yak-141 in the West - was to be a supersonic VTOL with weapons actually capable of threatening Western aircraft. The aircraft would be cancelled in the 1990s as the Soviet Union dissolved - along with its funding. The mod currently shows the aircraft as it would've been in the 80s, had it been finished - with the addition of the KH-35.

Current aircraft is in a very early stage. Model has no animations other than the bare minimum to operate from VTOL carriers, pylons are currently all on the centerline. I think the gun's bugged too, but I can't tell whether that's just the gun AI in this game haha. It's a project I'll continue working on.

Many thanks to Skyblazer on the BuOrd discord for his help, without which I'd never have figured this out. :)

recently got back into this actually. currently the landing gear/wings on the test build rotate around the center of the craft and not their rotation point - I plan on talking to skyblazer later lol

Still alive mate? Only things mod needs are landing gear animations and fixed texture. Other than that (flaps, rudder etc) noone will notice if they are missing. However it is very noticible when my aircraft float down the runway with no landing gear xd
