Apex Simulations EMB-312F Tucano

[Fran]

This is a brand new company that is getting in the mix of quality addons for FSX/P3D

Worth a look.

Here are a few pics of their testbed the EMB-312F Tucano

Brazil and Tucano together gets my attention. Thanks for the HU.

[Sundog]

Just an FYI for anyone wondering, the T-50 is the Kai (Lockheed Martin) T-50 South Korean trainer, not the Sukhoi PAK-FA prototypes. I've wanted one of these for a while, so I'll be looking forward to it's release.

[Christoph_T]

Now that looks interesting. Nice to see that this company is not going to do one of the thousand Boeings or Cessnas we already have in the market...
By the way: Of course a russian T-50 (PAK-FA) would be VERY welcome in my hangar:wiggle:
Looking forward to the developments of Apex Simulations:applause:

Absolutely fantastic news, an aircraft that is well over due so thank you to this new company for doing it :applause:

I hope that they do an RAF version of the aircraft even if it's just an external model and uses this virtual cockpit

:encouragement:

Looks very attractive. Beautifully done . I'm sort of maxed out on my sim spending atm but this will be on the list for sure. Nice.

oh?...do we know the price point yet?

[Chris Sykes]

Wonder if they would consider a Short Tucano conversion?

[greenie]

Doesn't matter , my sim spending has been done until the next cash release day for me .

[ryanbatc]

Funky lookin bird... I'd buy one. Is it a competitor with Pilatus PC9/PC21 and The Texan II?

[Wings of Gold]

OK, I'll commit to buying one - if they make a Shorts Tucano version, I will also buy it as well. If APEX is reading this (and I assume you are), I think that you would have a strong market / very good sales for a Short Brothers version.

Looks very nice Fran!

[Obie311]

Esta Mucho Malo! This is so much more airplane than the Shorts Tucano not to mention the Texan II. I'm a Mud Mover so if rendered well, this will definitely be on my list for 2016.

The 312 is old. It has since been replaced by the 314 Super Tucano...;)

[flaviossa]

Sorry, to bring back this old topic, but anybody has news on this project? Their FB page don´t have much information.
Thanks :encouragement:

[Montie]

I believe they joined Razbam which has suspended all FSX/P3D development at this point...

[YoYo]

It looks like they work only on DCS version. : (

[flaviossa]

Sad news...

[Obie311]

I don't understand why Apex is modeling the 312 rather than the 314. The 314 is the current variant and is Super BadA$$.

There was quite a political kerfuffle over the selection of the Light Air Support aircraft a few years back. Raytheon pulled out all it's political stops in an effort to defeat and retract the selection of the A-29 over AT-6 II. Keep in mind the Embraer would be built in Jacksonville and upfitted with USA avionics and systems.

Ladies and Gents, before rumours start to spread throughout the flight sim community based on no grounds, here's the following.

Yes, Apex joined Razbam for a DCS Emb-312 Tucano. And as we work on it, (the top picture YoYo had shown is the original FSX version) the DCS version is completely different , but with the possibility for becoming a bases for a FSX/P3D version.
Also there are positive signs the EMB-314 will arrive for DCS too.

NO, Razbam has NOT quit on FSX/P3D, but has postponed FSX/P3D projects for about a year (and that was half a year ago....... do the math :biggrin-new: ).


Cheers,
Hank

Well, some light in the end of the tunel. Thanks for the clarification Hank :encouragement:
