Any News on the Razbam A-7?

[Rattler]

It has been some time since I have heard anything on the A-7, Any News Gents?

:salute::salute::salute:

[XLR8]

Yeah...an update would be nice .

[Bjoern]

Oh come on, no one can be *that* impatient!

(Especially with all the other toys around for FSX.)

[Roadburner440]

There may be other toys, but there are no A-7's to my knowledge. I am patiently waiting though. :wiggle:

Seeing as How the A-7 is my Favorite Bird, I am VERY Interested in the Release of this Toy as you call it, P.S. At the risk of Sounding like James Chams, I have just about everything out there

[Prowler1111]

Well..news are..we are still coding the thing...in the meantime i give you pics of the 2nd A-7 volume

OK, I guess the second volume is the Navy model. It looks great, and that white helmet is going to get some paint after I get Volume two, hehe. I've been learning how to paint, and I'm locked on that helmet. Fox fox fox!

[Prowler1111]

Not really, it goes like this:

Volume 1 includes
A-7E (USN)
A-7D (USAF)
A-7H/E (HAF)

Volume 2 includes
A-7A(USN)
A-7B(USN)
A-7C(USN)
A-7P (FAP)

And there will be a Volume 3 with 2 seaters(<--both cockpits modeled)

why so many volumes? to keep final product price as low as possible, i don´t believe in usd 40+ addons and due to all the coding on each aircraft, if we include all in a single release will easily reach 70 to 80 bucks a pop, a big no-no in my biz idea.And to clear another reason, there are very extreme differences between each volume coding as the cockpits are entirely different with different avionics and capabilities.
The price for each volume is usd 35.00, so far our most expensive product but at the same time our best product to date, with what we call "busy cockpit concept" you no longer have just a nice looking addon, but a functional great looking one.

In that case, I'm going to need a set of checklists.

[ColoKent]

....you're going to include the two seaters? An A-7K????


Excellent-- we need a version of that with tanks and a travel pod too!

I'm gonna fly ANG profiles in the A-7D/K for the rest of my FSX days!!!!

EXCELLENT!!!!!

Looks like it'll be Vol 1 and possibly 3 for me. Would like the Portugese one but can't really justify buying another volume for one paint. The Greek is the priority.

Great to see you doing so many variants, though. Nothing nicer than having such choice, like the CS C-130.

Just a little heads up, the A-7P is totally different from the A,B,C,E or D, it´s a mix between an A with avionics from an E in a pretty much mixed up panel.I´m just trying to say that it´s not just paints, these are totally different machines between volumes where the only thing in common is their cockpits that differ from each volume.
Thanks for the comments, when they are available you will see the difference.

I'm aware that the A-7Ps aren't the same, and I can understand why it's in the volume with the A model, but to be honest, I couldn't tell you the difference between an A, C, H, P or whatever, so to me, only the paint matters. That's just me, of course! I'm glad you're making correct representations of each variant. That's how it should be done, even if the differences aren't noticeable to the casual onlooker.

Not criticising, just an observation.

[Sundog]

Two seaters! Yes! I always thought the Twosair was the best looking of the bunch IMHO. TYVM, I always wanted one in FS.

Well, the Do328 is *my* favourite toy but that doesn't mean that I've sent Eaglesoft 3409458 emails asking when theirs will be ready//spend every waking hour working on my rendition.


Those "Oh, it's finally out!?!" moments of surprise are way better in my book than those "Can't be long"..."Just a few hours"..."Uploading"..."Opening shop"... ;)

Young Man, To Imply that I spend Every Waking Moment E-mailing Razbam, Prowler about the Progress of the A-7 is Rather Funny However, It is True I have Contacted them a Total of 2 times Since may 18th, And have Posted a few Feelers about the A-7, I hardly think that would Qualify as obsessing over Anything in My book.

I guess we all cant be as Cool and Reserved as Some on here like to think they are or Pretend to be.

What Can I say, I am Excited About the A-7, but know this,It wont be that Last time I ask about it Either. F.Y.I :salute::salute::salute:

[PRB]

Umm, kids... If I have to pull this car over and come back there, no ice cream tonight! And besides, we're experiencing "topic drift". Like INS drift, but different.

Yes! :d

[Roadburner440]

Aren't we all just really little kids at heart Henry? lol I am sure he is working feverishly on these things. Is good to hear it will be broken up into packages. Unfortunately since I know squat about the A-7 it looks like I will be doing research to find which set will be the right set for me.

[Rattler]

Once Again I Apologize for allowing Myself to be Drawn Into a Tit for Tat...This is not the place for Such things...That being Said, Any news on the A-7?...LOL JK Guys!! I am Sure I will be Purchasing all 3 Packages for I am As we all know an A-7 Homer:jump:

I am also Looking forwad to the New B-1B for FSX http://www.virtavia.com/

[Bjoern]

Heading three-five-five, continue as planned, Cirrus 3251.

Never thought when I worked on Corsair IIs that the day would come when I said I miss working on them; but I do.

This release is very, VERY accurate and detailed. Ron has outdone himself on this one.....

I'm glad I bought the pdf NATOPs for this aircraft years ago. Gonna need it!

[Prowler1111]

Well, i got some news, 3d is done, finish, finito, we are dealing with coding right now!..

Prowler

[strykerpsg]

Awesome news Prowlers, thanks for the update. Also, as was stated earlier, thanks for breaking up this beauty into multiple packages, makes the purchases easier to afford over the course of time.

Matt

[Rattler]

Thank you for That Update Prowler.... One Step Closer to the Prize, I will not Pretend like I know what all Coding entails But, It sounds Monumental...

I will enjoys all 3 packages indeed!!

Keep up the Great work!!!:applause::applause::applause:

Just to add a comment, that´s a in-game pic, not a render, that´s how it actually looks in FSX

Best regards

[Dag]

An amazing improvement to the VC textures :jump:

[MenendezDiego]

seriously, that looks AMAZING!

[Navy Chief]

Ron,

That could easily pass as a picture at first glance. I can even see worn areas on the forward edges of the Escapac ejection seat, where the paint has "worn" off....... Unbelievable!!!!!

GO NAVAIR.

GO RAZBAM!
