FS2002-2004 NORTH AMERICAN XB-70 VALKYRIE
FS2002-2004 NORTH AMERICAN XB-70 VALKYRIE This aircraft was shaped to fly at MACH 3 remaining within its Mach cone throughout the flight regime, using the shock waves beneath the wing to generate compression lift. The wing tips could be folded down 65° to increase this compression lift and also to provide greater directional stability. Unfortunately only two prototypes were built, and despite their exceptional performance, the XB-70 program had been cancelled after 130 missions, when an F-104 collided and destroyed the second prototype during a photo shoot. Even so, the B-70 provided invaluable high-speed flight test data. This model includes a detailed virtual cockpit with lighted gauges, folding wing tips and variable nose cone, complex movement for gear retraction, and reflective textures. Gauges and sounds are included in package. Author : Massimo Altieri. 7.2MB
