AzurPoly Releases C160 Transall

A new aircraft is now available for MSFS by AzurPoly. The C-160 Transall is a military transport aircraft built by Germany and France. Even though the aircraft was introduced back in 1967, it served for over 50 years. The German Air Force only retired the plane in 2021, and the French in 2022. The plane was also used by the Turkish and South African Air Forces, as well as a small number of civil operators. AzurPoly’s rendition is of the C-160R, which only served in the French Air Force and is the most modern variant of the aircraft.

In order to recreate the aircraft the team has had access to a real life C-160, allowing them to model the plane in the sim with meticulous detail. The 3D model is accurate and detailed, as well as optimised for performance. It comes with a fully modelled cockpit and cargo bay, with several customisation options for cargo load-outs. All buttons and switches are animated, and the plane comes with several extra animations such as opening doors and cargo bays, propellor vortices and decoy flares.

AzurPoly has also custom created several of the aircraft’s systems. The plane features a custom FMS, realistic hydraulic and electric systems and a fully replicated fuel system. The flight instruments feature a bespoke electronic flight instrument system with EADI and EHSI screens, as well as an operational autopilot. Also featured is an EFB to help you customise and manage the plane’s settings.

AzurPoly’s C160 Transall is available exclusively on the MSFS Marketplace for $32.99 USD.
