A technological tour de force of epic proportions, the legend of the XB-70 Valkyrie very nearly surpasses the performance of this extraordinary aircraft. Anak Band Stephanie Zen Pdf. Built in the 1960s as a result of a USAF proposal for a supersonic bomber with high subsonic cruising speed and supersonic dash capabilities, the massive XB-70 was to have carried the same bombload as the B-52 Stratofortress at a higher supersonic speed than the Air Force's current strategic bomber, the B-58 Hustler.

A later requirement specified that the plane be able to fly the entire mission at Mach 3.0 or greater, with a range of up to 10,500 miles and a maximum gross weight of 490,000 pounds. In the event, technology quickly relegated the Valkyrie to the role of supersonic research testbed and flagship of the USAF's public relations fleet. Ground-to-air missiles and advanced radar made the XB-70's supersonic mission impossible.

The bomb bay of the aircraft was instead packed with data acquisition equipment. I was quite surprised with this one in fact. There were several Harriers released around the same time as this one. None of them are perfect by any means, but this one is probably at or close to the top of the list in terms of features and simulation. This is a hard aircraft to simulate in FSX it seems, but this Razbam model seems to achieve it relatively well. The panel looks good and the external model is nicely done.

I gave it 5 stars, only because I couldn't give it 4.5 on this site.
