SYSTEMS

• Almost all real systems have been modelled and work as the real thing
• Flight dynamics modelled 99% close to the real aircraft
• Fully tested and validated by qualified real-world F-104 pilot
• Fully functional and close to real NASARR R-15, A/G and A/A mode with:
   - STT (Single track target)
   - LOCK-ON
   - ATTACK
   - GROUND MAP PENCIL
   - GROUND MAP SPOILER
   - CONTOUR MAP
   - TERRAIN AVOIDANCE
• Aerodynamic pitch up, inertia coupling and BLC system reproduced
• Payload drop actually changes aircraft weight, balance and drag as well
• Inertial navigator Litton LN-3 fully implemented

DDI (DYNAMIC DRAG INDEX)

The SSW F/RF-104G uses the Dynamic Drag Index concept; i.e. when you load/drop external loads, not only is the GW changed but also the drag coefficient is affected and the model aerodynamics change accordingly. This is particularly important in the F-104 where external loads affect greatly the dynamic behaviour of the model.


SOUND SET

A custom sound set has been developed from scratch, using live recording to give you a full immersion into the Zipper environment. If you are a Zipper fan,you will enjoy staying outside and 'playing' with the throttle, listening to its unique voice.


USER BENEFITS

The model comes with complete documentation, including:

• Three pilot checklists (normal, emergency, weapon procedures)
• Zipper hints (a document that help the pilot to use it effectively)
• Original 700-page Flight Manual in PDF format
• NASAR R15A simple User Guide
• User support at help-desk@simskunkworks.it
