The Tupolev Tu-144 (NATO: Charger) supersonic transport (SST) was the first of the two supersonic passenger airliners to fly. The other one was the Concorde.
The aircraft is unique for its retractable canards, which enable takeoff/landing at speeds not much higher than those of conventional airliners.
FlightGear model
The project was conceived in July 2014 and has been active since April 2015. Its goal is to accurately model flight dynamics, systems and instruments of the Tu-144 entirely in JSBSim and then make a convincing visual model.
Current status
As of February 2017, we have:
- FDM and control in agreement with POH, except for a few bugs;
- reasonable autopilot, based on the documentation for Tu-154B;
- plausible navigation stack, initial modeling of the Orbita-10 computer;
- engines, systems and most instruments following POH;
- profiles for cold-and-dark and takeoff;
- correct animation, sounds and view in multiplayer.
Known issues
- The visual model needs a replacement.
- There are very few instruments in the cockpit, user having to rely on dialogs.
The issues will be addressed when the logic is completed.
