The primary mission of the aircraft is high-speed low-level attack with various offensive and defensive capabilities.
Mission capabilities include: long range high altitude intercepts; long range attack missions and close support missions.
An automatic low altitude terrain following system enhances penetration capability.
Power is provided by two RB199-34R axial-flow, three-spool. Turbofan engines equipped with afterburners and thrust reversers.
Features:
• Detailed visual model
• Multiple liveries depicting Italian, British, German and Saudi Arabia armed forces
• Realistic flight model
• Detaileds system simulation and true-to life normal procedures for pilot
• Simplified system simulation for WSO
• Sound package based on real-world recordings
• Detailed pilot and WSO cockpits (IDS variant)
• External visual models for GR.1 and ECR variants
• WSO voice messages and partial automation (optonal) of WSO operations
