The
IRIS Pro Series T-6/A Texan II has been designed from
the ground up with T-6/A Pilots, Students and fans in
mind. From the word go, we knew we had something very
special in mind with this product. As a result of the
hard work from the IRIS in-house development team and
some key external contractors, we hope to bring you
the most realistic rendition of the T-6/A Texan II for
Microsoft Flight Simulator.
Rest
assured however that it doesn't end there! The initial
release of the product is only the beginning. We will
continue to develop this product even after it has been
released to the public, ensuring that as our technical
experience grows, this T-6/A Texan II will be constantly
enhanced to provide you with what we hope to be, an
end product which is 99% identical to the real aircraft
from the flight modelling down to the systems simulated.
And
as the development continues we will be bringing you
the next generation T-6/B Texan II and combat capable
AT-6/B Texan II.
On
behalf of myself and the development team here at IRIS,
we hope you enjoy what you find here on our website
dedicated to the IRIS Pro Series of products and hope
you come back soon.

this aircraft.

thrust values
