Now, you can get your hands on the original aircraft and finally see why this aircraft is so well-loved. The power of the B-47E is truly staggering and you'll quickly find that it was a hugely powerful piece of hardware for a reason, due to its incredible depth and power. The engineers had been made to creating something a little more unique than your typical bomber, and this was the result.

Created in a high speed wing tunnel with swept-back wings, this is capable of carrying out bombing runs in the most ridiculous of scenarios; and now, you can do so too!

Things like bump mapping, self-shadowing, and reflective boom designs all come together here in harmony and look absolutely fantastic, creating the perfect scene

  • Everything that has been included in the design of this project has been made to look the very best that it can, particularly the bare-metal textures sets. Additionally, these can be adjusted and tied to your own needs, if you are of the creative mindset

  • RATO bottle packs are included alongside unique RATO flit models. These come with various unique additions and effects that look absolutely brilliant. This also includes things like custom white smoke effects as well as various different additions that look pretty awesome and make it easy for you to enjoy flying in this model

Add in the fact that the sticks, pedals, and levers all work together and that the rear cockpit has been included and it's incredibly interest

  • The aircraft itself comes with a hugely unique cockpit that has been made from scratch to fit with the design and the style of reality. This makes it nice and easy to control and also ensures that you have control of things like a checklist to check as you fly to make sure that you are on the track at all times as a pilot

  • Various animations have been made to be used such as animated bomb bay doors, deflectors, RATO packs jettison, canopies, and crew entry via ladders. All of this looks brilliant and can be an excellent addition to the project if you want things to continue looking as best as they can

  • Authentic landing and navigation lights look excellent and make it easy for you to land the aircraft, taking away the normal challenges that exist as you are trying to master the art of flying at night. This really does help make things go the way that you had intended

Very Good sim for me, still using FS2004. Allows you to understand the flight parameters of the aircraft for T/o and landing. Looks good when flying other B47 AI aircraft at operating airfields. Very happy with purchase.
