    Very important note: together with the F/RF 104 G package you will have to install our last weapon pack version 3.5, available with the SSW FRF-104G,to use all the weapon features.

    SSW F/RF-104G uses the Dynamic Drag Index concept, in other words when you load/drop external loads not only the GW is changed but also the drag coefficient is affected and the model aerodynamics change accordlying.

    This is particularly important in the F-104 where external loads affect greatly the dynamic behaviour of the model.

    Every specific model have it’s own internal layout,with their custom gauges (for example,Dutch and Germany zippers have their own altimeter,ecc)

    Also notice that the internal layout will change into sub-versions depending from the ordnance you will carry.

    A custom soundset has been made from scratch, using live recording to give you a full immersion into the zipper environment.

    If you are a zipper fan,you will enjoy to stay outside and “play” with the throttle,listening it’s unique voice.

    RELEASE NOTES

    – SIM SKUNK WORKS FRF-104G came in two basic versions:
    “SOLO” suitable for solo flights with bump and speculars map with all FSX specific texturing features
    “UBUNTU” optimized for MP without some texturing effects to enhance the FPS friendship.
    Even if SOLO model is FPS friend it should not be used in a MP environmnent for 2 reasons:
    1. It can be resource demanding and affect your FPS when more than 4-6 players are present.
    2. Weapon loadout can be inconsistent between different player.
    UBUNTU model overrides both of above limitations.
    – This initial release does not contains UBUNTU models, they will came with the next version as an extension pack for those users that are interested. UBUNTU extension pack is planned in 1/2 weeks.
