VSKYLABS Active Development
Ongoing (announced) VSKYLABS projects and experimental work in active development.
Content shown here represents current progress and may change over time.
VSKYLABS 'Test-Pilot': F-4E
Work-In-Progress! The VSKYLABS F-4E Phantom II project is a high-fidelity ‘Test-Pilot’ simulation, capturing the aircraft’s authentic systems, aircraft performance and handling characteristics.
VSKYLABS 'Hopper' Hot Air Balloon Simulation
Work-In-Progress! It's getting HOT here at the 'labs...VSKYLABS 'Hopper' balloon simulation for X-Plane 12!
VSKYLABS 'Test-Pilot': Lavi
Work-In-Progress! VSKYLABS rendition of the IAI Lavi - an innovative Israeli 80's era 4th generation fighter prototype, a smaller 'cousin' of the General Dynamics F-16. The Lavi program was cancelled and it did not proceed beyond the flying prototype phase.
VSKYLABS 'Test-Pilot': TT3
Work-In-Progress! VSKYLABS rendition of the Conroy Tri-Turbo-Three DC-3 turbine conversion. It was powered by 3 PT6A turbo-prop engines and flew missions over the North Pole regions and to the depths of Antarctica.
VSKYLABS 'Test-Pilot': XF85
Work-In-Progress! VSKYLABS rendition of the XF-85 Goblin Experimental Prototype. The McDonnell XF-85 Goblin was an American prototype fighter designed during World War II to be launched from the Convair B-36 bomber. Its role was to defend bombers from enemy interceptors. McDonnell built two prototypes before the U.S. Air Force canceled the program.
