The third-party industry bound to Microsoft Flight Simulator never stops, and developers shared news about upcoming and released add-ons today.
We start with IndiaFoxtEcho, which provided news about its Aermacchi M-346 Master, Tornado, TA-4J and (possibly) A-4 Skyhawk, and Aermacchi MB-326, on top of their stance on Xbox support.
The developers also teased “a couple of surprises” which should make their fans happy.

See separate post from few days agoTORNADO
We were not happy on the level of detail of the models we have used for the images we have previously posted… so we are remodelling most of the aircraft with a much better level of detail.TA-4J SKYHAWK
We have finished reworking the nose section, so that it is now much closer to the real deal. We will completely remodel the cockpit (as opposed to using our P3D geometry). Looking good but will take a while to complete.A-4 SKYHAWK (NOT CONFIRMED)
We are, of course, evaluating to port over our single seater Skyhawks… but again, we will have to remodel many parts to achieve a good level of detail, so at the moment the project is not green lighted yet.AERMACCHI MB-326
We have not stopped working on this… but it has lower priority than other projects.
All of the projects above are “done when they will be done”. No rush, no cash-cowing. We will try our best to make decent products we’ll take the time we need.In terms of XBox support, it will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis: we already shared our thoughts few days ago, but long story short we’d love to port our products to XBox BUT we will not oversimplify them just for the sake to make therm run on XBox and get more money.
BUT…and this is not all. There are a couple of surprises we cannot discuss at the moment, but we are confident that they will make our fans happy.
