Do you know an IRIS product? What, only one??!!! Wink

IRIS are/is some of the best developers I've ever seen.
A few weeks ago I downloaded all freeware by IRIS from simV.
And I have got the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter.
It's just fantastic! Many details, perfect flight dynamics, good VTOL works, great!

I adore the Iris planes, being a VC and Military junkie Tongue

My first two purchases were the first F-15E (Now updated, and much better), as well as the regular MiG-29.

I then bought the F-14A/B, which I'm a huge fan of...

and my latest purchase from them was the F-15C/D/CJ/DJ Cheesy

I don't regret buying any of them!

I'm with Isak, their stuff is really nice. Good looking models, good flight dynamics and VC's. In fact their HUD in their F-15 series, in VC mode, is so realistic, that it causes quite a noticable hit on your system performance unless you've got a high end system. That is easily fixable with a HUD swap but just goes to show you how nice their models are. I love em.

Didn't they just borrow (with permission, of course) that HUD from someone else? I remember that I have the same exact thing for an F-16 that I got freeware on this site a while back.

Don't know, maybe they did. I can't use it anyhow as it's too much for my setup to handle.

In the F-16 (RDAF Version (I believe) by Mr. Kirk Olssen), it has almost no FPS hit over the original cockpit, and the HUD looks a thousand times better.
