Miltech Simulations MV-22B

Note: At Miltech Simulations, we are committed to no upgrade fees on all products from MSFS2020 to MSFS2024. Any products bought now or in the past will be available to use in MSFS2024 at no additional cost.

It is highly recommended that you read the manual before using the product. The manual is available here: https://docs.miltechsimulations.com/

The MV-22B is a tiltrotor, VSTOL (Vertical/short takeoff and landing), multi-mission aircraft, developed to fill multi-service combat operational requirements. The real-life counterpart, MV-22B, replaced Marine Corps assault helicopters in the medium lift category (CH-46E and CH-53D), contributing to the dominant maneuver of the Marine landing force, as well as supporting focused logistics in the days following commencement of an amphibious operation.

The MV-22B has other variants, such as the CV-22B, developed for the US Air Force. Other variants for the Royal Navy, Anti-submarine Warfare and Search and Rescue have been proposed. The aircraft is manned by a pilot, copilot, and enlisted aircrew appropriate for the specific service and type of mission being flown. The MV-22B is optimized to transport troops (i.e., 24 combat-equipped Marines, or 10,000 pounds of external cargo) to austere landing sites from aviation capable amphibious ships and expeditionary forward operating bases ashore. The MV-22B would be capable of flying over 2,100 nautical miles with one aerial refueling, giving the Services the advantage of a Vertical/Short Takeoff and Landing aircraft that can rapidly self-deploy to any location in the world.

The MV-22B is currently operated by the United States Marine Corps (MV-22B), United States Navy (CMV-22B), United States Air Force (CV-22B) and Japan Self-Defense Forces (MV-22B). Israel, India and Indonesia have considered acquiring the aircraft for their own military operations. All MV-22B variants feature slightly different fuel capacities and configurations, but the design of the aircraft and systems does not change.

Features:

• Developed in partnership with talented aircraft developer Maryadi
• Realistic external and Internal model.
• Togglable automatic operation of Doors and Ramp based on the flight condition.
• Authentic interior and exterior Night Lighting, including MV-22B's iconic Blade Tip lights.
• Custom Sounds.
• Hand-crafted Liveries included.

Cockpit and Systems:

• Comprehensive simulation of the aircraft instrument and systems.
• Realistic manual operation of engine nacelles based on airspeed.
• Full Simulation of BFWS (Blade Fold and Wing Stow) Procedures.
• Simulation of Auto-Hover capabilities, Auto-Flaps and custom-coded Autopilot.

Flight Dynamics and Engine Systems:

• Custom VTOL/STOL Flight Dynamics, including realistic behavior of the aircraft handling during movement of the engine nacelles. Custom coded thrust-vectoring.
• Fully simulated Vortex Ring State: Dangerous aerodynamic stall condition that results in an uncontrollable descent of the aircraft.
• Realistic simulation of the gearing system connecting both proprotors, allowing for 1 engine operations at reduced performance.
• Engine overstress limitations as per the real aircraft – engines cannot sustain full throttle for long periods of time.

Accompanying Products: Miltech Simulation has developed multiple products (sold separately) that serve as a companion to the MV-22B. This product can be bundled with:

• USS George H.W. Bush
• Amphibious Ready Group (Including USS America, USS San Antonio, USS Virginia, USNS Mercy)

Liveries:

• Marines “Golden Eagles”
• Marines “Thunder Chickens”
• Marines “Blue Knights”
• Marines “Evil Eyes”
• Marines One “Presidential Nighthawks”
• US Navy “Titans” (CVM-22B Variant)
• US Air Force “Blackbirds” (CV-22B Variant)
• Japan Self Defense Force
• Blank Livery

Important Notes:

• This product is still in active development. Please report any bugs you find and they will be addressed in future updates.
• Nacelles are operated using INCREASE COWL FLAP 4 (Nacelles up) and DECREASE COWL FLAP 4 (Nacelles down). You must map these two commands to two buttons/keys in your joystick or keyboard.
• Vortex Ring State and Engine Limitations can be deactivated through the CDU/ACFT Init/MENU 3/Flight Reality
• Do not pause the simulator if nacelles are at a position different from Zero Degrees.
• Flight planning is currently limited to the WorldMap. CDU support is in development.
• Autopilot works best in Airplane mode (nacelles at zero degrees)

Manual:

A full operations manual is available at https://docs.miltechsimulations.com/ Due to the complex nature of this aircraft, it is strongly recommended that customers read through the aircraft manual.
