That's great news isn't it?

It certainly is Cees! The FS2004 model by Steve Beeny was very nice, but due to the mirrored wing textures not usable to create Dutch repaints.

Looking forward to this one.

Cheer,

Suez/mid-late 50s military is a bit bare in this sim, esp naval. This is great news.

That is very good news indeed! I have been missing a good FSX model of this significant early British naval jet fighter. In my view these early jets have a lot more charm than the more polished super fighters of later decades.
But I also hope that Rob has not given up on the Barracuda!

[Stickshaker]

Yes, very pleasant news indeed!

[Flyboy208]

Wow! What a treat, Rob sure is being very generous. Mike

One of the most elegant FAA aircraft from that period.

Not given up on the Barracuda Jens, just tackling a few easier shapes first, in my new modelling programme.

Yeah baby!

Wing folding animation on the Barracuda will be a project all by itself. I still haven't been able to figure it out.

That's good to hear Rob :-) It will be quite a sight with the wings folded :-)

Among the Barracudas few successes were the attacks on Tirpitz up in Northern Norway. Even if they were not mortal to the big ship, they were brilliantly executed by the FAA and was part in removing the threat to the convoy's. The effort to sink the Tirpitz with the Norwegian resistance providing "close target recce" and the midget submarine attacks, FAA attacks and the final and mortal Lancaster raids have become important parts of Norway's war history.
