Military Visualisations YF-23 Black Widow II

It's currently available through FSD. I really hope that MV will choose to make a tacpack version of this...the VC needs an update as it had a center stick and not a side stick...AFAIK. however not 100% sure that each version didn't try a different layout?

The YF-23A and the F-23A both have center sticks.
 
I too would very much like a re-release of this aircraft outside of Steam (I want to fly it in either FSX Acceleration or P3D). But in the original version that I bought years ago the horizon line of the HUD (and hence the flight path marker) were too low. For example:; when the plane was rolling for take-off they were both beneath the horizon, which I found extremely annoying. Has that been corrected?
I seem to remember that MilViz had plans for an upgraded version (Kat announced it on this forum but I cannot find the post). Is that the same version we are talking about now, or a different one? That version, I think (and wish) was to have Tacpac if I remember correctly. CJ, can you enlighten me?

We are willing to offer the YF-23 to those who bought the FSD version and can prove it*, as well, we will fix the HUD and, possibly, add new burners to it.
We will not, at this time, be making it Tacpack capable but, if anyone wants to try their hand at doing so, we will gladly speak with them.
We will, also, not be putting this on sale anywhere else at this time.
... and finally, we will NOT provide any support for this product at any time (unless you buy it from Steam and use it in FSX SE)

[* send proof of purchase to kat [at] milviz [dot] com and we will inform you once it is done]

My compliments to Katoun, and Milviz ! I just got my download link in an email. I really appreciate this, it's not something they had to do for FSD purchasers. It's high level customer service at it's finest !

I received mine as well, installed and flight tested, although only briefly.

It's refreshing when a developer takes the time to consider their customers, even when said developer is dealing with three (four soon) sim platforms and the numerous updates inherent and mandated by changes in the market.

I originally purchased the plane in 2012 and had more or less shelved it. I was pleasantly surprised to see it pop back up on the radar...so to speak.

Thank you Kat and Milviz, and much appreciated.

I received mine as well. A truly generous gift! I know of no other developer who did something like this. Thank you, Milviz team!<o:p></o:p>
 
It would have been a shame to see what I consider to be the pinnacle of Fighter Design mothballed again, I too thank Colin for the gesture and allowing me the time to do it. She looks beautiful in P3Dv3 does she not ?
 
Hello CJ,<o:p></o:p>
Indeed she looks beautiful in P3D. And while I had expected to have to pay for this beauty it came absolutely free. Thank you CJ and MilViz! The excellent thrust to weight ratio is very apparent and the manual is quite detailed.<o:p></o:p>
 
Yea... I can't seem to find it anywhere on the net to buy.. It's a shame.. I would prefer this one over the F-22
