Top Mach YF-23 Black Widow II release for FS2024

DennyA

SOH-CM-2023
The 2020 version has been out for a week or two, but the native 2024 SDK version of the YF-23 is now available on the MSFS Marketplace. (You get an entitlement to the 2020 version as well, for you bi-simuals.)

Only had about 10 minutes to jet around while eating lunch, but it's certainly pretty, and fun to fly. IMHO the most beautiful modern jet fighter design ever.

I'm hoping Top Mach will eventually come out with the production version of the YF-23, the F-23A. Just because it was even better looking than the YF-23. But even if they don't, this is awesome. I would love to see the updated F-20 as well, especially if they (Iris) released a version with the larger (More wing area) wing the fourth prototype and production variants would have had. But I'll settle for what they released before as it was just a blast to fly.

Have you seen official renderings of a proposed F-23A? If so, could you post a link to them...

Ohh, Maaan!

I saw Black Widow in the title & thought it going to be about DC P-61 Black Widow! Disappointed!

Although the YF-23 does look very nice, though!
