Grumman A-6 Intruder - by Deimos Inc Released on Marketplace 6/28

Rather than model the Intruder with actual bomb racks (TERs), Deimos simply mounts the bomb loads on drop tanks. Otherwise, it would look like this:

It's bring your kids to work day! :p

I could probably live with that, but the bombs on tanks/no MER - that's so disappointing. That said, if there's any way Deimos would consider either an EA-6A or ideally, EA-6B, I'd be over the moon.

Thanks for the heads up!
 
I think there are kids in the cockpit, right? I am joking.

However, I recognize in D. the growth in the quality of the 3D meshes and textures (always improvable obviously).

Will the next steps be “systems and flight model”?
 
It’s not as good as I hoped unfortunately. It’s impossible to know what has been selected in the cockpit. The square buttons don’t rotate when you select them like they do in the F14 for example. You don’t know if you are in GPS mode or nav mode,tacan doesn’t seem to work. The indexer lights illuminate on a lamps test but don’t work during the approach. There’s no indication the autopilot is selected or if the alt hold or heading hold are ‘on’.
Hopefully future updates will correct these shortcomings but right now for me it falls short.
Anyone else notice these issues ?
 
I'd recommend posting observations to their Discord support (or email if you don't want to contact them via Discord) as they are responsive. Update #1 coming in a couple days. https://discord.com/channels/911947975515840572/1204012875581235290
Yes they are responsive but they will already know the issues I have mentioned as they made the aircraft and have been making aircraft for MSFS for some years now. That being said improvements may happen soon, hope so.
 
Does anyone know what the update was on this aircraft ? Started msfs last nite and checked updates and updated it (I think ) but it didn’t say what the update was ? Anyone have any idea ?
