Fliegen wie die Red Arrows: Just Flight haben ihre Umsetzung der Hawk T1/A veröffentlicht. Das Schulungsflugzeug geht jetzt im Microsoft Flight Simulator mit vielen Features an den Start. Für knapp 41 Euro steht das Add-on jetzt im Webshop von Just Flight zum Download bereit.
Die Briten versprechen dabei eine realistische Umsetzung des Jet-Trainers: „Die Just Flight Hawk wurde mit einem außergewöhnlichen Detailgrad modelliert und verfügt über eine Vielzahl von 8K-Texturen (einschließlich RAF und Red Arrows), realistische Nutzlasten (einschließlich AIM-9-Raketen, Raketen, Übungsbomben, 30-mm-Aden-Kanonenkanonenkapsel) , Red Arrows Diesel/Dye Smoke Pod) und Bodenausrüstung“, schreibt Just Flight im Webshop. „Sowohl die vordere als auch die hintere Pilotenposition sind enthalten und das Flugzeug verfügt über ein echtes virtuelles 3D-Cockpit mit animierten 3D-Instrumenten und voll funktionsfähigen, kundenspezifischen Systemen und Avionik.“
