Thunder Chicken22 Posted June 13, 2024 Posted June 13, 2024 Introducing the F-23A mod by ThunderStruck simulations! Currently WIP and expecting to release sometime in 2024. Please note that this is NOT the YF-23 which was the PAV during the demonstration and validation phase of the ATF program. This is one of the proposed production versions, DP231, for the P&W F119 engine. Based on the unclassified General Arrangement plans. 5 2

Thunder Chicken22 Posted June 13, 2024 Author Posted June 13, 2024 Sure! Fully clickable cockpit based on our best interpretation of the GA plans and official artwork from the time. 4 2
Nebula_Creates Posted June 13, 2024 Posted June 13, 2024 That... might be the highest quality clickable cockpit I've seen from a mod. Nice!
Stratos Posted June 14, 2024 Posted June 14, 2024 The F-23 looks magnificient! good job! I don't understand anything in russian except Davai Davai!

Thunder Chicken22 Posted June 21, 2024 Author Posted June 21, 2024 Another quick update video! A quick look at flap scheduling in action: 4 1
CarbonFox Posted June 22, 2024 Posted June 22, 2024 Looking forward to this. Question. Will it have the extra weapons bay from one of the proposal concepts? F/A-18C; A-10C; F-14B; Mirage 2000C; A-4E; F-16C; Flaming Cliffs 3
Thunder Chicken22 Posted June 22, 2024 Author Posted June 22, 2024 Yes! This is the F-23A DP231 which is the P&W F119 variant. This was featured in General Arrangement plans that are publicly available. This wasn't the final submission as it was dated December 5th 1990 and the final submission was December 31st and has not been released to my knowledge. This is about as close as we can get. You can see the both weapons bays at 22 seconds in on the Flap Scheduling video above. 1
Thunder Chicken22 Posted March 20 Author Posted March 20 Check out Growling Sidewinder taking on the Raptor in the F-23! Note: The build featured here is the F-15C FM and is not representative of what the final FM will be. 3

We are shooting for sometime this summer for the initial release. I am hoping in 2-3 months but we are a small team. Good news is that we are making quite a bit of progress currently. 4 2
