Because a bunch of the devs including Oleg are old aeronautic engineers, and one of them was on the team developing the Su-26. And many of them (including Oleg) has IRL stick time on the Su-26 so they know how it should behave as a reference to if they got the FM right. It was said it would be included as a bonus in the game but there may be some copyright issue that made it impossible to include? Maybe it was not all finished and they have had other issues to focus on (good priority in that case even though I would love to try it!)
