AlphaSim's A-6E Intruder package is out now. This set of FS models for FSX and FS9 features multiple weapons loadouts, multiple texture schemes, a panel suite, realistic sounds, detailed v-c and realistic flight dynamics. The FSX version further benefits from self-shadowing, bump mapping, reflection bloom and v-c self shadowing (this feature requires SP2/Vista).
Effects include automatic turbine glow and exhaust smoke, wingtip vortices and wing root flashover. The weapons loadouts are extensive; Mk.82's or Snakeyes adorn the TERs, two types of Paveway II guided bombs, Walleye, Harpoon, SLAM, HARM and Maverick as well as various aux fuel tank arrangements.
The release consists of two packages; the Main Package (Pack 1) includes 6 loadout options and 4 texture sets. The more affordable Expansion Pack (Pack 2) consists of 5 new loadout models and 4 new texture sets. This 2-package setup keeps the main package less expensive and downloadable. At the same time provides a wider experience for the true A-6 fans. The Expansion Pack will be 'expanded' with new loadout models as time goes on and requests come in (no additional cost for those). The A-6 has also been tested on the default FSX moving carriers (SP2) and is able to trap. Screenshots can be viewed on the AlphaSim News page.
