3D instrumentation.
Animated engine pods - nozzles expand and contract with power setting; engine spikes translate forward with Mach number.
Opening cockpit hatches with detailed interiors.
Full complement of weapons - MB-1 single pod, BLU2-B1 and BLU2-B2 two compnent pod, four MK43 bombs and 20mm cannon.
Accurate flight model based on real flight manual data.

The original airfoils (as described above) are included in a separate folder within the airfoils folder. You can use these in place of the default airfoils by substitution. This will give a less realistic, but easier flight performance.
