SOH-CM-2025
New from Alphasim

Revealed ! The AS365N Dauphin ! Both FS9 and SP1/SP2 FSX versions will be available, the N1 and N2 variants are covered, both with VIP transport and medevac versions. The FS9 package is complete, the FSX work is ongoing, a few days away. Sounds are included, no 2D.

Nice lookin but no USCG, I mean we the USCG are the largest user of the daulphin for SAR. No Coastie, no cash from me.
 
Can't see the rotor, too light, other than that, looks good but the only helo I've liked from them is the Sea Sprite, that is a well done helo.
 
Yep the Sea Sprite is my faverite AS helo and looks cool in uscg colors, i even have here in uscg full orange scheme.
 
I wonder, will there be an FSX native version? This is one helo I've been waiting for. It would be a shame not to see it with bump mapping and self shadowing.
 
I see the rotors, but it is very faint. Check out shot number 6 and you'll see the disk. May have to pick this one up, if priced right.

Hm, can't say I like the oldfashioned look of the VC, texture wise, but this may be nice for someone who loves the Dauphin.

If it's cheap I'll probably get it.


 
Yes - lets hope its a work in progress and that the VC improves.
 
Looks good to me, I always welcome a new FSX native heli. I just hope it will not be to resource heavy like the other AS helis that have come out lately.

I think what you see might be what you get. It doesn't have the 3D gauges and graphical things that Dan did in the blackhawk, sea sprite, and black shark. (for obvious reasons)

I will let the product speak for itself though now that I am not affiliated with Alphasim.
 
It would have been a "no-brainer" to get if it did have 3d gauges, if it's priced right I'll still maybe get it, but if not, I'll pass. Hopefully the FSX VC will look better.

Those shots are of the final model, and I believe an FSX version is being worked on currently. Graphics wise, it's not going to change.

Of course, all 'imho'.
 
Does the USCG get proper representing paint with release? As i stated the USCG operates the largest SAR fleet of the AS365.

I don't think that the USCG Dolphin is included, due to the amount of different equipment fitted to the aircraft.

Similarly the Panther was omitted for such reasons.

But then that's just going on what I knew of the project- I know nothing more than the public, now.

Suppose I should actually shut up then LOL. :guinness:
 
We dont use panthers. We use the AS365 Dolphin aka HH-65.
