FS2004/FSX Aerfer Ariete. Basically similar to the Sagittario II, the Ariete was built by Aerfer. Retaining most of the Sagittario 2’s layout with a nose intake and ventral exhaust for the main Derwent engine, the Ariete added a Rolls-Royce Soar RS. 2 auxiliary turbojet engine to provide additional power for climbing and sprinting. This used a dorsal, retractable intake with its exhaust at the tail. The Ariete prototype (MM 568) flew for the first time on 27 March 1958, but the entire project was later abandoned. This model reproduces the aircraft displayed at the Vigna di Valle Aeronautical Museum (near Rome). This model features reflective metallic skin and full animations. The panel background has been created entirely from scratch, and it is not intended to reproduce the real panel, due to lack of information about it. Some gauges are default gauges and some have been created by the authors. Also included is a simple virtual cockpit, with working essential flight instruments and animated flight controls. By Italo D’Attomo and Giovanni Quai.
