Lol. That’s the livery I created for the Indiafoxtecho T45. 

Yes, I was going to say, the twin nose wheel gives it away! 

I bet you can't wait to start painting this Donka!

Oh yes. Got a few planned. Feel free to post any requests.

A few ideas (not all T.1s and the Canon Williams is obviously fictitious on a flying model!):

 

I assume the Tiger Meet Hawk had it's rudder replaced or repainted, hence the missing side of the tiger's head compared to the model photo.

Guys please pardon my ignorance but what's the point of having a military aircraft on a civilian simulator? I feel that im missing something here. In the sim, this is an aircraft to do exactly what?

Those of you who are excited by it, what kind of uses will you do?

Gotta go fast! Nah tbh I don't really understand it. There are a few aircraft like the Corsair that have never been done in high fidelity in any other sim so that I can understand. But most of them are somewhat pointless in my mind. Unfortunately it seems we have a flood of military aircraft and very few GA aircraft.

The idea is to fly a hopefully accurately simulated plane it in as complete a world as we have ever seen before.

Some of them will definitely make an appearance.

Hopefully regarding the discount if you already have the P3D version we get as good a discount as what we did when the PA28R Arrow was released.

Yes, same level discount as for the Arrow.

P3D owners qualify for a discount, but not FSX?  As it is basically the same product, I wonder why?

FSX owners too qualify for the discount.

It's the only experience you will have at flying a mil/fighter jet anywhere in the world.

While DCS hits the in depth combat/weapons systems avionics checkmark it doesn't provide the entire globe for exploration as MSFS does.

While MSFS doesn't provide detailed combat/weapons systems we can atleast fly these beautiful military aircraft in formations across the entire globe!

That's my two cents.🍻

Yes, thanks Scott.  The OP posted the first part from the original thread that only mentioned P3D, but I picked up on the FSX discount from further down that thread.  

Thanks - really looking forward to this.  It's exciting times for the sim. Looking forward to the Tomahawk as well!

Umm, fly? A blunt answer, not to be rude but to merely state the simple fact.

Just as you don't really understand the appeal, I equally don't understand why people don't see see why it might appeal. Besides, in the case of the Hawk, it's not even a combat aircraft (in UK usage, albeit capable of conversion if necessary), only a trainer.

But, in short, I refer you to my first answer - it's a plane, why not fly it? I would never reject a plane because of its purpose in life (combat, transport, passenger, GA etc), only because the individual plane's characteristics or behaviour didn't appeal.

You see things differently, and that's fine.🙂
