Initially announced the T-33 Jet Trainer during the Summer Surprises event and was an aircraft many were keen to get their hands on. iniBuilds has now confirmed the release date and price for the T-33 Jet Trainer.
The T-33 Jet Trainer is a collaboration project between iniBuilds, SimWorks Studios & AceMaker Aviation, all with the aim of bringing a detailed and feature-rich rendition of the plane to the simulator. To be clear, SimWorks Studios provided support in systems modelling and flight model elements, whilst iniBuilds provided the remaining elements.
The plane will come with a range of features (as per the feature list down below), such as authentic steam gauges or a modern suite of avionics, two distinct cockpit styles, and realistic dynamics and sound sets.
As for the visual side of things, expect detailed and realistic canopy covers, toggleable chocks, engine plugs, pitot covers, and plenty of air-show-like smoke effects. Everything modelled will be high in resolution and highly detailed in the modelling department. If you’re flying on PC, you will also have pylon-mounted ordnance to allow combat training scenarios.
iniBuilds announced that they will be releasing the T-33 Jet Training on August 30th (pending any last-minute issues). The T-33 Jet Trainer will be part of their Premier Series of planes and you can get a better overview of what the plane has on offer by watching the 30-minute video above.
Finally, when the T-33 Jet Trainer is released, it will cost £19.99 (plus VAT).
