Spies In the Sky!

Want to try your hand at flying a Watchkeeper? First Class Sim have just released an add on for FSX.

The Watchkeeper WK450 is Britain’s spy in the sky. Entering service with the British military in late 2010 and still on the secret list, the Watchkeeper is the state of the art in unmanned aerial vehicles. Designed for Intelligence, Surveillance, Target Acquisition and Reconnaissance (ISTAR) the Watchkeeper is available for a wide variety of missions including Special Forces support, covert surveillance and path finding for conventional airstrikes. The Watchkeeper is set to revolutionize the capabilities of the British military in both overt and covert theatres of operation around the world.

Also included is our best selling Predator UAV (unmanned aerial vehicle). Operated around the world by US forces, the Predator drone is at the forefront of clandestine operations set against a backdrop of international espionage. In a revolutionary breakthrough for Flight Simulator both the Watchkeeper and Predator are at your disposal and can be operated from the Ground Control station, utilizing electronic display screens to guide each UAV to its target.

Alternatively, take direct hands-on control of each aircraft utilizing a custom camera view that puts you in the thick of the action. Command airborne operations where the risk is too great to deploy a manned aircraft. A raft of missions for Flight Simulator X, puts you in the hot seat where mission success depends on split second decision making and absolute accuracy in handling the deadly duo of Watchkeeper and Predator UAV.

Confirm your security clearance and take control of the ultimate airborne avengers!
