Asobo partnering with iniBuilds for AN-225 Mriya

welcome news indeed!

though I'll admit I've been flying the Tom Rathge AN-225 with the ported 747 cockpit, I am interested to see the MSFS version with a proper cockpit and full details!
 
The Hughes Hercules seems to cheat and pair up its eight engines; would be awesome if SU12 brought 8-engine support, because I'm gonna need 10-engine mixed support for that B-36 someday. :)
 
Does the sim actually support more than 4 engines?

I think someone said in the livestream that MSFS will support up to 16 engines as of SU12, but there may be performance issues with the sim trying to do CFD calculations for 16 propellers.
 
I'll probably purchase this one just to support Antonov. Whether I ever fly it or not will remain to be seen.
 
This one is going to be a ton of fun for me when they get six-engine support, since I have enough Saitek/Logitech Pro Flight Throttles to use. Pushing six levers around for throttle control will be interesting.
 
An225

The feature on the AN-225 during the Developer Livestream this week is well worth watching if you haven't already. It includes and interview with the Antonov folk
 
wow I was convinced that the AN2 Anuska would come before this, anyway...... we'll keep waiting
 
Here is the full developer stream on YouTube, the AN-225 announcement is at the 55 minute mark.
