yep, saw ur report. got with dontkev and added to his list
i wonder how the Vyuga pod’s functionality will be modelled… both in 3rd person and cockpit view
AFAIK, the cockpit gets a lil instrument panel thingy with a few lights and button (replaces TV screen) and the pilot aims and fires based on that

Other source that could be useful are
A 101/1/129.- Flugzeug Su-22M4, Gefechtseinsatz
A 101/1/128.- Flugzeug Su-22M4, Steuertechnik und Navigation
I have no idea what is in them though, as they are in the German state archive and I cannot access it. There is also no pdf of them online, as far as I could find. One would have to go there in person.

while reading the sources, i found the fabled Su-22M5.
An upgraded version of the Su-22M4 which, by my understanding, was never undertaken. but there actually WAS 1 prototype!
and here is the cockpit for it!

I have only seen one report about countermeasures for the Su-17m4. Does anyone have any more information about additional countermeasures for the Su-17m4? (I use Google Translate.)

From the pictures you sent, I see that the Su-17M4 wing slat can be deployed without opening the flap
, but in game it is not possible yet. I think it would be good if you send more reports about wing slat.
If I’m wrong, I apologize.
Maybe they’re is a combat flaps setting or maybe they’re unpowered slats (or even only extending is powered)

Extra ASO-2V Countermeasure dispensers under fuselage
now they cannot deny it (hopefully), also

Kh-25MTP Infrared guided AGMs (basically the father of the Kh-38MT AGMs but not nearly as much range)
Su-17/22M4 can carry 6 of them, finally a comparison to the A-10 and its 6 IR guided Mavericks
Also S-8L or S-8Kor, a laser guided version of the S-8 rocket. however this is a recent development, hence dont have any hopes for this
