FSX Republic F-105


FSX Republic F-105; 13th TFS F-105 Rolling Thunder. This is AlphaSim’s freeware release of their Republic F105  Thunderchief. This aircraft is from the 13th TFS. The 13th TFS was set up at Korat RT AFB in May 1966, largely using 44th TFS aircraft and pilots. But it did not use the 44th TFS designation, instead taking the 13th designator. The 13th squadron had four flights of F-105Ds (single-seat) for air-to-ground attack and one flight of F-105E “Wild Weasel” aircraft (two seat, pilot and weapons system officer-navigator) which specialized in hunting down and destroying enemy surface-to-air missile (SAM) sites in a air campaign called “Rolling Thunder”. The F-105 was known as the “Thud” by its crews. This aircraft has a updated 2D and 3D panel, new Mach 2 flight dynamics and textures by Mark Rooks of RDG Aircraft. 17 Mb
