F6F-5 Hellcat

The carrier deck quakes as a deep, guttural roar cuts through the noise and demands respect. The deafening thumping of 18-cylinders is instantly recognisable … the Zero Killer. Ace Maker.
The F6F Hellcat.
The logical successor & evolution to the F4F Wildcat, the Hellcat was the monstrous carrier-borne aircraft of the United States Navy in the Pacific Theatre of WWII. The Hellcat first appeared operationally in August 1943, proving its value immediately and taking part in some of the greatest air battles of the Pacific; from the Caroline Islands, to the Battle of the Philippines & many more. The aircraft was incredibly successful in battle, accounting for more than half of all airborne kills from the US Navy. The F6F claimed 5,156 total kills with an extraordinary kill ratio of 19:1, creating 307 Hellcat Pilot aces in the process.
The Hellcat is easily distinguished on the deck by its folding wings & the unmistakeable earth-shaking roar of the enormous 2000+ hp Pratt & Whitney R-2800-10W Double Wasp Radial engine. The engine is an air-cooled radial piston engine, with 18 cylinders, a 2-speed supercharger and water injection for additional power demands. This monstrous engine drives a 3-bladed Hamilton Standard Propeller with an enormous 4m diameter, capable of powering the aircraft up to speeds of 391mph (629km/h).
Capable of reaching 20,000ft in under 8 minutes, with a combat range of almost 1000 miles and a service ceiling topping 37,300ft, the Hellcat can get off the deck and into the fight quickly. Prepare yourself to experience the thrill of a catapult launch off the deck. Once you’re in the sky, the real challenge remains: the terror of landing back down on the deck safely. Put yourself to the ultimate test of bravery & skill and see if you can fly the Hellcat as successfully as the great pilots of WWII.
Featuring all-new ground handling physics developed in-house, custom thermodynamics modelling, cockpit shake effects, realistic water injection & automated flaps (a ground-breaking feature of the time), supercharger modelling and much, much more. The F6F Hellcat has been truly brought to life in MSFS!

F7F-3 Tigercat
F7F-3 Tigercat for MSFS
The F7F Tigercat, which was derived from Grumman's first twin-engine fighter, the XF5F-1 Skyrocket, appeared as the result of a Navy request in June 1941 for development of a larger, twin-engine fighter for use on board the planned large aircraft carriers (Midway-class). The airplane was the first twin-engine fighter ordered in large quantities and the first carrier aircraft to incorporate tricycle landing gear.

The F7F Tigercat, which was derived from Grumman's first twin-engine fighter, the XF5F-1 Skyrocket, appeared as the result of a Navy request in June 1941 for development of a larger, twin-engine fighter for use on board the planned large aircraft carriers (Midway-class). The airplane was the first twin-engine fighter ordered in large quantities and the first carrier aircraft to incorporate tricycle landing gear. Built in single and two-seat variants, the heavily armed fighter served in ground support, night fighter and photo reconnaissance roles after World War II and in Korea.
Tigercat variants included :
Clean variant - No external stores. 3 fictional 'racers', also no guns or cannons.
Fighter variant - Carries one belly drop tank. The typical day fighter loadout.
Rockets variant - Carries two underwing drop tanks and eight unguided rockets. The typical ground attack loadout.
Features :
- folding wings
- in-game checklist
- Wwise sounds package with multi-stage engines, pilot's slide canopy muting, switch clicks and other unique cockpit sounds

- 23-page illustrated User Operating Manual
- source texture files avaliable for livery artists
F7U-3M Cutlass
Virtavia F7U-3M Cutlass for MSFS 2020
In 1945, Vought Corporation was asked to design a carrier-capable jet which would exceed 600 mph and have a service ceiling of 40,000 feet at 0. 95 Mach. The result was the F7U-1, an unfortunately lackluster aircraft. The plane was redesigned as the F7U-3, with uprated engines and other improvements. Still, the plane was underpowered and suffered many problems, among them a weak nosegear strut which could collapse on a carrier landing and break the pi... Virtavia F7U-3M Cutlass for MSFS 2020
In 1945, Vought Corporation was asked to design a carrier-capable jet which would exceed 600 mph and have a service ceiling of 40,000 feet at 0. 95 Mach. The result was the F7U-1, an unfortunately lackluster aircraft. The plane was redesigned as the F7U-3, with uprated engines and other improvements. Still, the plane was underpowered and suffered many problems, among them a weak nosegear strut which could collapse on a carrier landing and break the pilot's back. The plane suffered from high fuel consumption and engine responsivenes from low revs was far from ideal. However,it was rugged and was known to have pulled over 9 gs on more than one occasion, with at least one visibly bent aircraft after such a maneuver. In all, 307 of all types were produced, 98 of which were the F7U-3M depicted here.
Features :
- highly detailed undercarriage and wheel wells.
- 3 variants, including a bare-metal livery.
- sharp 4K textures with fine rivet details and small text decals.
- 4x Sparrow Mk. 1 missiles, can be toggled off using switch.
- pilot ladder, intake blanks and wheel chocks.
- VR ready. Control yoke latch-on enabled.
- Wwise sounds package, turbines, switch clicks and other unique cockpit sounds.
- detailed cockpit with numerous animations and mousable controls.
- start-up smoke, afterburner flame, wingtip vortices and (faint) engine cruise smoke fx.
- animated folding wings, speedbrakes and arrestor hook.
- animated afterburner petals and dorsal blow-in doors.
- in-game checklist.

F-86F Sabre
FA50
The FA50 is a three-engine, long-range business jet that first flew in 1976 - the first purpose-built trijet in business aviation. Its supercritical wing, drawn from fighter-aircraft heritage, paired with three fuel-efficient turbofans to deliver transcontinental range, high cruise speed, and a reputation for reliability that defined the type. It remains a popular choice for operators who want intercontinental capability in a compact airframe, with the largest active fleet flying in the United S...

Our Aircraft
This is our first aircraft release, roughly two and a half years in the making, and we're proud of both the state it ships in and the airplane we chose to bring to Microsoft Flight Simulator. In our eyes it's unmatched in design and aesthetics - a graceful trijet that still turns heads on any ramp.
What really drew us in is the cockpit. The FA50 sits at a fascinating crossroads between classic and modern, blending traditional steam gauges with more contemporary avionics. We modelled the commonly seen EFIS upgrade - a digital Collins 85C EFIS paired with a Garmin MX20 MFD and a GNS-XLS Flight Management Computer - which gives the panel its distinctive mixed character.
Most current releases lean toward full modern Garmin glass cockpits. We wanted to do something different. To match the story of an aircraft that has been flying - and quietly upgraded - for decades, we've given the cockpit a used, lived-in look rather than a showroom finish. Given the average age of these airframes today, that feels like the honest way to represent them, and it adds real character to every flight.
