This exclusive freeware package brings the legendary Battlestar Galactica into Microsoft Flight Simulator X, offering a futuristic craft that excels in both high-altitude flight and stable hover. Carefully converted and optimized by Bruce Fitzgerald, it delivers a remarkable blend of speed, maneuverability, and accuracy.

In-Depth Look at the Fictional Warship

The Battlestar Galactica, a centerpiece of its sci-fi universe, is originally known for housing entire squadrons of smaller vessels and enduring harsh combat scenarios. Within this add-on, that legacy translates into robust structural integrity and an agile flight envelope. Enthusiasts who crave interstellar-inspired maneuvers will appreciate its wide-ranging capabilities, which seamlessly integrate into Microsoft Flight Simulator X.

Highlighted Capabilities

  • Remarkable Velocity: This craft can push the simulator’s boundary by reaching up to 2667 knots, ideal for those seeking extraordinary speed.
  • Efficient Thrust Vectoring: Advanced nozzles adjust output in any direction, ensuring precise control at every stage of flight.
  • SuperSpoilers Functionality: Unique spoiler surfaces rapidly bleed off energy during high-speed approaches, assisting with tighter turns under elevated G loads.
  • Reinforced Airframe: Engineered to tolerate tremendous dynamic pressures and aggressive maneuvering, it keeps you firmly in command.
  • Deflection Flaps for Hover: These specialized flaps enable vertical or near-vertical flight, generating a stable lift platform for low-speed operations.

Performance Engineering

Behind the scenes, advanced aerodynamics and vectored thrust design allow for full-envelope handling. This fictional warship’s powerful propulsion system adapts to both supersonic travel and controlled low-speed maneuvers. The result is a highly flexible flight profile that remains steady across the entire velocity range.

Visual Elements & Included Files

All primary textures and modeling have been thoroughly adapted for Microsoft Flight Simulator X by Bruce Fitzgerald. This download arrives as a complete freeware release, eliminating the need for separate base packages. Experience the iconic outline of the Battlestar Galactica in your sim environment, with details that replicate the intimidating presence of the original design.
