I've been working on a new SR-71 model for FS since before MSFS was released. Primarily for Prepar3d V5, this model has been downgraded slightly (no RSO radar or optical viewsight) in order to get it into FSX.

Hope you like it, you don't hear of much coming out for FSX these days.

That is a great looking aircraft!

I have read that it will be released for FSX and P3D V5.3, but wil it also work in P3D V4.5?

Cheers.

So now that this is almost out... Will there be an improved A-12 based on these advances?

It should work in P3D V4.5, but as yet I haven't tested it. So many sim versions, I'm trying to reduce the workload down to FSX and P3D V5.3, but that doesn't mean to say that it won't work in the others with limitations eg PBR if you used V3.

The A-12 and B-58 will be re-released with P3D V5.3 PBR textures, but no modelling or functionality changes.

This is pretty much my FS swansong, been doing it for 20 years and have literally run out of steam :ernaehrung004:

Glad to hear about the PBR but would love to see some functionality (cockpit) changes to make the A-12 much more realistic... Out of curiosity has a price been set or any hints thereof for the new SR yet?

Not thought about that yet. But probably the same or less, even though more work has gone into it.

What sort of changes are you after on the A-12?

Will have a think about those items, will see how possible it might be to incorporate them if my source files are intact enough.
