A couple are, but the truth is, FSX at this time does not have the capability to do any of these. even the ones that can be done are done at the cost of other parrts of the FDE. The reasons for this are first: FSX does not support vectored thrust of any form, whether 2D or 3D such as on the S-37/SU-35/SU-30MKI. The second main reason is that the canards on the SU-30MKI/S-37/SU-35 are active, meaning they balance out the action of the elevator. Fsx does not support a second set of elevators..
THAT said,
FDEs are extremely complex objects made of an enormous set of subsystems. There is perhaps a chance that given enough time ( i've been working on and off on that plane for over a year anf a half ) it MAY be possible to twist a flight modes innards in such a way as to allow some of these maneuvers to be performed. To this date this is as close as i have been able to get. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cuUDjXeGjiQ

I havent pursued development past that point because out of the many developers ive talked with, none are willing to make an SU-35M. Part of the reluctance stems from translating Russian into english, and part also stems from the SU-35Ms complex and varied Cockpit. There are four seperate versions now, including one with a G1000 style glass MFD and voice command module. wouldnt that be cool??

just for fun, heres an earlier version of the Flight model in action http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A3Idr-mhj28

Pam... remember what happened when you gave it to me? :icon_lol: (FS9 video of the same FDE)

Yup :)..

Buty even then, it so very far from what it needs to be to do that plane any justice, though i must admit that working on the P-36 has taught me a few things and i'm curious if they could be put to positive use with the SU-35M.

OH another thing folks.. Nomenclatures!.. Russian nomenclatures are a NIGHTMARE.. You will find the SU-35 equiped with and without canards, you will also find S-47s listed as SU-37s, and SU-35s listed as SU-37s..
Its enough to drive you to drink, and i'm not one to claim that i have it all correct either..

Pam is your FDE available anywhere?

Super Maneuver(er?) is so far the only simulator that will allow you to perform those maneuvers.
It's based of Flanker 1.0 sim engine.
