Looks good, but have to say I'm waiting for the G model to get the full treatment.

What about Tornado and Harrier?

[flaviossa]

Is it the MLU model? I prefer to wait the full update if it´s still on the horizon

[SSW1]

Yes is the latest, MLU included, radar "idiot guide" a recommended read, no offense meant "idiot" stands for made-simple.

For the G we have to wait since the person in charge is currently engaged in the discussion of the degree thesis in aeronautical engineering,
no dates but not before 2/3 months.

Hi! Can you inform to me if the F104S is updated to MLU for FSX-SE too? I can´t see any info about F104S MLU release in the web shop. Thanks!

[SSW1]

F104S MLU for FSX/SE not yet released, not decided yet if it will be released or not.
Recently we have fixed our policy on support/development since we do not have the resources to follow too many development platforms at the same time,
we decided to follow the P3D x64 route since it seems us the most promising.
Here a table that explains, hopefully enough self-explanatory, however available for any question, not all decisions ere consolidated yet.

Ah, understood now. Thanks for the table explain, much more clear now
Just got the F84 and untill tomorrow will get the f104s for p3dv4 too.

Hi,
just to add a marginal note on above table about TacPack compatibility and support.
All our planes so far are TacPack compatible and will remain as far we are concerned, however we cannot feel to give support in TP field anymore.

[flaviossa]

Hi! Can vacmi be installed in a simulator that has tackpack installed too? Do they create any interference one with the other?
Thanks!

Ouch naturally it's the only one I'm interested in.
