FS2004/FSX Yak 3-M-82 warbird. The yak-3 and its derivates had a very long service life and many were used after the end of WW2. In an attempt to increase performance while avoiding the overheating problems of the VK-107 and VK-108 liquid cooled engine variants, the single "Yak-3M-82" was built,fitted with the Shvetsov M-82 two-row fourteen cylinder radial engine, used on the La-5 fighter, and first flown in May 1945. Performance was very good and the aircraft was extremely agile, but with jet fighters coming on line, there was no push to develop the concept further, and the project was abandoned in October 1945. The prototype reached 682 km/h (424 mph) at 6,000 m (19,685 ft) and contributed directly to the Yak-11. GMAX model by A.F.Scrub.

A repaint for Rob Richardsons excellent FSX native DH Seavenom, which is available at Classic Britsh Files.com. The model comes in 3 versions, this is for the FAW.Mk21, WW138 of 809NAS, aboard HMS Albion during the Suez crisis of 1956.An outstanding model,worth tracking down. This Aeroplane is in the FAA museum at Yeovilton. Not 100% accurate, due to limitations of my graphics tools and the texture mapping of the model, but very close.

You will find all the COD4 repaints and a 'shared texture' folder in the COD4 ZIP file, with a revised config. file with the appropriate changes made.

FSX Curtiss SC-1 Seahawk The Seahawk was the last design specifically created for ship catapult launch and use as a scout plane. This is a native FSX Acceleration project. It has full animations, a specular shine, reflective glass and lights. The panel .cfg contains the gauges necessary for a catapult launch from a properly equipped vessel using the rcbco-30 gauges (not included). The gauges must be activated per the readme. The VC is based on a partial photo and has working gauges and animated flight controls. There is no 2D panel. By Paul Clawson

FS2004/FSX Polikarpov I-153 Warbird bipe The ultimate development of the Polikarpov fighter biplane was the powerful I-153 Chaika, with retractable landing gear, either wheels or skis folding to the rear. Coming on line in 1938 some thousands served in the Far East, Finland and on the Eastern Front. The I-153 was an anachronism, entering service at the time when the biplane had long since been eclipsed by the monoplane fighter. This is a model of an I-153 as flown in the Russian-China conflict at Khalkin Gol in August 1939.GMAX model by A.F.Scrub. Source included.

This is a set of 3 textures for the Flying Stations Freeware Swordfish Wheeled version, 0f 820,822 and 833 NAS.
