VRS F/A-18E 'Superbug'

Discuss aircraft addons and repaints for Flight Simulator here

A short break away from the cockpit for some pics of the Vertical Reality Simulations 'Superbug' for FSX. Complicated sim, up there with the best of them for attention to detail. A bit pricey, bit worth every cent so far thumbup1.gif





























Oops! I think that was the wrong handle! biggrin.gif

Nice shots..it looks amazing. Wonder of the Blue Angels will eventually get F-18Es or will they get F-35s? Maybe they wil go a diffrent route and get T-45s?

Yeah, good point. Personally I think the F-18E/F are too big for a display team aircraft, and the F-35 might lack manoeuvrability as well. Currently they are transitioning to the F/A-18C/D so they might be in that for a while. I don't believe the Angels have ever used a trainer before, although the Goshawk is a smart looking aircraft biggrin.gif

SCRUBS All i can say , that,s one hella way to depart a perfectly good aeroplane or were the bugs bitting laugh.gif

As for a Blue Angle replacement , i,d place a bet the current 18s will be the longest serving type in the blue and gold ever .

Definately the bugs! biggrin.gif Great animation, pretty amusing if you do it at high altitude, it keeps the ejection sequence going over and over until the plane hits the ground blink.gif
