The FSD T-38 Talon represents a highly accurate
model of the renowned Northrop fighter-trainer aircraft. This is a
gmax® created model, specifically for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2004. |

|
The T-38 Talon is a twin-engine, high-altitude, supersonic jet
trainer used in a variety of roles. It is designed with economy of
operations and ease of maintenance in mind. It is used by
undergraduate pilots for pilot instructor training. Air Combat
Command, Air Mobility Command and NASA also use the T-38 in various
roles.
-
- The T-38 has swept-back wings, a streamlined fuselage and tricycle
landing gear with a steerable nose wheel. Two independent hydraulic
systems power the ailerons, flaps, rudder and other flight control
surfaces. The instructor and student sit in tandem on rocket-powered
ejection seats in a pressurized, air-conditioned cockpit.
-
- The Talon first flew in 1959. More than 1,100 were delivered to
the Air Force between 1961 and 1972 when production ended.
Approximately 562 remain in service throughout the Air Force. The
T-38 maintains an exceptional safety record to this day.

Specifications |
While cutting edge add-on aircraft such as
this will "run" on a system with the minimum
specifications outlined by Microsoft for Flight Simulator 2004, the following are minimum guidelines to achieve acceptable
performance:
- Microsoft Flight Simulator 2004 - *Required
for use of this software
- Pentium IV or AMD Athlon/Duron microprocessor or
higher with 2 GHz MHz + speed and 512 MB RAM minimum
- Windows XP or Windows Vista
- Nvidia or ATI Radeon based 3D accelerator video
card with full antialiasing and T&L lighting capability and a
minimum of 128 MB onboard RAM
- SoundBlaster Live or equivalent
128-bit DirectX sound device
- Up-to-date DirectX video and sound drivers
Obviously, higher end systems with 3.0 GHz+ speed
CPU, 1024 MB system RAM and 256 MB or preferably 512 MB video RAM will perform
much better. |
