Bear Studios has recently launched its rendition of the MiG-15 fighter for Microsoft Flight Simulator, providing aviation enthusiasts and fans of military history with the chance to experience flying this iconic Soviet fighter from the Cold War era.
Developed using real flight manuals of the MiG-15B and reports filed by the United States Air Force, the Bear Studios MiG-15bis offers a highly detailed and accurate representation of the aircraft, complete with realistic flight dynamics based on actual data.
The MiG-15 was a highly successful swept-wing jet fighter designed by the Soviet Union and achieved great success during the Korean War, where it outclassed all straight-winged enemy fighters in most applications. The MiG-15bis variant was equipped with a better performing engine, the Klimov VK-1, which significantly improved the plane’s thrust-to-weight ratio, making it one of the best climbing planes compared to others with a similar battle rating.
The Bear Studios MiG-15bis for Microsoft Flight Simulator features highly detailed exterior and VC models, animations, light effects, sound effects, and high-detail 2048×2048 textures. Its interactive cockpit boasts in-depth system simulations and a Real 3D gauge system, and its flight dynamics are based on data from the actual Russian MiG-15bis flight manual and USAF tech reports, ensuring a realistic flying experience. Additionally, the plane is VR compatible, providing players with a fully immersive experience.
The plane is available for purchase from JustFlight for $29.99 or SimMarket for EUR 28.23, with a minimum requirement of 690 MB of free disk space for installation. The package includes a PDF manual and paint kit for those who wish to customize the aircraft’s appearance.
