Affectionately known as "The Jug," the P-47 Thunderbolt is as
big as the American Spirit and holds a unique honor in the ranks of World War II
fighters. Ironically the original concept was born in Russia and can be seen by
its rugged and hearty design. Like a gentle giant, the P-47 handles with grace
but packs an enormous punch. This plane was much heavier and bulkier than other
fighter planes of its day, outweighing aircraft like the Fw 190 by several
thousand pounds. Equipped with a large, powerful radial engine, it looked as
tough as it was. However, when British pilots first saw the P-47, it was often
mocked due to its size. The light, maneuverable Spitfire's could get on a P-47's
tail with ease in test trials. What they didn't know at that time was the P-47
was different type of fighter and the battles were to be fought at higher
altitude where the air is thin, using high-energy tactics. Both the British and
the Germans soon found out, in the right hands, the P-47 was lethal. Wings of POWER 3: P-47 Razorback FEATURES -

Pilot's Notes pop-up 2D panel keeps important information
easily available What is Accu-Sim? Real pilots will tell you that no two
aircraft are the same. Even taking the same aircraft up from the same airport
to the same location will result in a different experience. For example, you
may notice one day an engine is running a bit hotter than usual and you might
just open your cowl flaps a bit more and be on your way, or maybe this is a sign
of something more serious developing under the hood. Regardless, you expect
these things to occur in a simulation just as they do in real life. And under
the hood, you expect your aircraft systems to respond accordingly. This means
no more one minute engine warm-ups. This is Accu-Sim - it puts the gauge back in
the game. While Accu-Sim is
created by pilots, it is built for everyone. Realism does not mean you
have have to have a difficult time with your flying. In fact, realism can mean
an easier time with your flying as things react as you would expect in real
life. Common sense thinking applies with Accu-Sim. For example, if you are
exceeding your maximum allowed speed with your flaps down, there will likely be
warnings. You may hear and odd rumbling telling you, the pilot, "hmm, something
is not right".
Listen to your aircraft We are proud to launch our all new "Accu-Sound"
sound system with over 200 recorded sounds for the P47 Razorback alone. This
new sound system brings Accu-Sim to an entirely new level. While hearing is a
critical sense when flying, it is even more important for a simulation, as you
are deprived of the sense of feel we have in a real aircraft. We have loaded
the P47 with smart, intuitive sounds. You will not believe how much audio can
immerse you into an authentic flying experience. We hope you enjoy this as much
as we did creating it. P-47
Razorback Accu-Sim Expansion Pack
FEATURES -
Brand
new A2A sound system allows for many new
sounds including dynamic wind, turbo whine, engine sputters, etc. that will
immerse you in flying unlike ever before. Experience a true "Open Cockpit"
experience. -
Complete piston combustion engine modeling. Air comes in, it mixes with
fuel and ignites, parts move, heat up, and all work in harmony to produce
the wonderful sound of a big radial engine. Now the gauges look beneath the
skin of your aircraft and show you what Accu-Sim is all about. -
Primer
system modeled. Accu-Sim monitors the amount of fuel injected and it's
effectiveness to start the engine. Roughly 2-4 shots needed in hot weather
and 4-8 in cold weather. -
Authentic battery. The battery capacity is based on temperature. The
major draw comes from engine starting. -
Oil
pressure system is affected by oil viscosity (oil thickness). Oil
viscosity is affected by oil temp and oil dilution level. Now when you start
the engine, you need to be careful and not raise RPM too much until oil temp
is high enough to give proper oil pressure. If you raise RPM too high on a
cold engine, especially very cold, oil pressure can raise to over 150psi.
Oil pump failure can result. Also, extended inverted flight (negative g) can
uncover the oil sump and reduce oil pressure. Do not fly in a negative g
situation for more than 5 seconds. -
Oxygen
starvation (hypoxia) is modeled. Just take off and climb without oxygen
to see. -
Experience realistic startups with an authentic inertia starter. Wind
it up and engage. -
Gauge
physics including magnetic compass, gyros based on suction, and
realistic vibrations from engine and airframe. -
Airflow,
density, and it's temperature not only affect the way your aircraft flies,
but how the internal systems operate. -
Real-world conditions affect system conditions, including engine
temperatures. Manage temperatures with engine cowl flaps and oil cooler
flaps. -
Use
intercooler flaps to cool Carburetor Air Temperatures (CAT) as high
temperatures can adversely affect engine performance while low temperatures
can lead to carburetor icing. -
Spark
plugs can clog and eventually foul if the engine is allowed to idle too low
for too long. Throttling up an engine with oil-soaked spark plugs can help
clear them out and smoke will pour out of exhausts as oil is burned off. -
Overheating can cause scoring of cylinder head walls including ultimate
failure if warnings are ignored and overly abused. -
Realistic water injection (ADI) system. Pushing the engine too hard
without water injection automatically injects more fuel to keep cylinders
cooler, creating realistic black smoke from unburned fuel. -
On hot
summer days you will need to pay very close attention to your systems,
possibly expediting your takeoff to avoid overheating due to radiant ground
heat. -
Airframe and component drag. Dropping your gear will pull your aircraft
realistically as the landing gear is deployed along with cooling flaps,
Ordnance, and even opening the canopy. Drop your gear, deploy your flaps, or
just try a dive and listen to your airframe. It's all there and it's all
real. -
System
failures including flaps that can independently jam or break based on
the actual forces put upon them. If you deploy your flaps at too high of a
speed, you could find yourself in a very dangerous situation. -
Landing
gear can jam based on whether it is moving or locked down position. -
Total
audible cockpit made with recordings from the actual aircraft. Before
you fly, enjoy clicking everything. -
Authentically recorded Pratt & Whitney R-2800 engine in a P-47. When
possible, we visit and fly the actual aircraft, capturing every area that
makes sounds, namely the engine and how it not only sounds inside and
outside, but based on where you are outside. We also have sounds to indicate
how your engine is performing. For example, it may cough if the cylinders
start getting fouled, or you may hear components start knocking when pushed
too hard. This all contributes to you, the pilot, from knowing your aircraft
and how to read how it is functioning throughout every flight. For FSX. |
