The beta version of the Fairey Swordfish MkI is now available for public beta testing!

you will need to register to diavolirossi.net site, to be able to download the model.
We thank the AAA team to allow external link of a mod into this forum, and to allow the mod to be compatible with AAA UI. This has been done to assure availbility to all users without any problem of compatibility.
The 3D model has been made by 6Sc.Tamat; the import, java classes coding and FM were made by 6S.Maraz
This version is compatible with AAA Unified Installer 1.1 and AAA a/c Installer 3.8 or subsequent versions.
(thanks to AAA modding team, see
http://allaircraftsimulations.com/forum).
This is a beta version, it's not the final product. so we ask all users to accept it as is now, the final version will come soon.
We decided to release this playable beta version to get feedback or bug reports from users, and to increase playability of the
IL-2 game by adding a new a/c model, though unfinished.
This beta version has not finished original cockpits: the pilot's cockpit is taken from I-16, while the gunner's cockpit is a very rough version of the original Swordfish gunner's cockpit. The skin of this aircraft is a beta version too.
For the rest, the model is completed and playable. It has full ordnance, including torpedoes, various types of bombs and illuminating flares (these are dropped using the weapons3 key).
The rear gun has two positions: stowed and deployed (ready to fire). The gun automatically deploys when there are enemy aircraft, ships or vehicles around, and stowes again when the threat is away. Can also be deployed/stowed by the player using the airbrake key.
The aircraft has arrestor hook, folding wings and automatically deployed wing slats.

So they can keep a list of who downloaded the Beta and know who's using it at any given time, in order to prevent model theft.
Thanks a lot Maraz ! That's a plane we've all been aching to see in the sim !
Cheers

Perhaps this was one of the 'secret' things the 3.8 installer was made for. :twisted:
Looks good, installing now - thanks!
