Stekelenburg 10 Posted April 7, 2014 (edited) Hello, i'm working on my first addon: The MQ-185 ''Spectre II" UCAV It's a fictional, but realistic fixed-wing drone with a mobile ground station. It will look like a bigger and more stealthy MQ-9. Pictures coming soon! Please let me know what you think about this addon. Greets, Stekelenburg Block I: MQ-185A: -CTOL -25mm and 40mm cannon -2 AIM-9X -2 GBU-12 LGB MQ-185B: -CATOBAR (Carrier Version) -4 AGM-65 -2 AIM-9X -2 GBU-12 LGB -Tailhook -Foldable Wings -Smaller fuselage and bigger wings then MQ-185A In the future I will probably a service menu so you can equip weapons at your self Here are some blueprint pictures I made 2 months ago: https://fbcdn-sphotos-h-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-prn2/v/t34.0-12/10006927_1501990690022282_3122101266917253711_n.jpg?oh=ad2a7d1266bb0ba7f546fbf09488cdc8&oe=5362435B&__gda__=1398962976_0ec544adc930d90b25c3be34dd439a0b Edited May 4, 2014 by Stekelenburg Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stekelenburg 10 Posted April 14, 2014 I've done a lot on this project, but it's still low quality. I also want to know if you like a gunship variant with 25mm and 40mm cannons Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
x hunter33 10 Posted April 14, 2014 Do you have any WiP screenshots to share? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stekelenburg 10 Posted April 14, 2014 Not yet, I will post some pics when I think it's the right time. For now, it's just too low quality Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kremator 1065 Posted April 14, 2014 Just make them do this .... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stekelenburg 10 Posted April 27, 2014 Work goes great, the quality is getting better and better, I only have trouble with uploading pictures. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Crielaard 435 Posted April 28, 2014 If you can make it possible to have both a gunner and pilot controlling the UAS you're the man! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stekelenburg 10 Posted April 28, 2014 Poll added. I will try to upload some pics of the blueprints of the MQ-185 I made 2 months ago, so you can see how it will look like. As you probably understand, that IS NOT the 3D model I've talked about. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stekelenburg 10 Posted April 29, 2014 I think it's clear that AG missiles will be added. I think Hellfires would be the best option, but it's gonna be limited, because the MQ-185 already has cannons. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ericcartman3470 4 Posted April 29, 2014 I love drones! :) And I'm looking forward to some pics. Can you make several versions of it? Like: CAS Version with rotary cannon and AG-Missles or Bombs AA Version with rotary cannon and AA-Missles Gunship Version with 40- and 25mm rotary cannons. Good Luck!

DreamRebel 73 Posted April 29, 2014 Multiple versions is indeed an option. Will the drone fly like a chopper or a plane? I really like this drone myself, it looks real good. (They're very big) http://www.wired.com/images_blogs/threatlevel/2012/08/globaldrone_660.jpg http://global.fncstatic.com/static/managed/img/Scitech/predator%20Grand%20Forks.JPG Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stekelenburg 10 Posted April 30, 2014 It's a fixed wing plane, there will be 2 different versions: The MQ-185A, a CTOL plane armed with 25mm and 40mm cannon and 2 AIM9X. MQ-185B, a CATOBAR airplane that can takeoff and land on carriers, armed with 8 AGM65s and 2 AIM9X. In the future, I will add other versions and a Mobile Ground Control Station. Pictures of the blueprints of the MQ-185 will be uploaded between now and 24 hours, those are NOT pictures of the 3D model. I also ask you to think about a cool nickname for the MQ-185.

corporal_lib[br] 396 Posted April 30, 2014 Basically, a Neuron UCAV with a silhouette closer to a B2 from above... =) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stekelenburg 10 Posted April 30, 2014 It looks like it, but the MQ-185 is bigger, higher and there are some things that make the MQ-185 more unique Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DreamRebel 73 Posted April 30, 2014 I like it. Will there also be a unarmed version with some improved optics for scout missions? Let's say an borderpatrol UAV. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stekelenburg 10 Posted May 1, 2014 I like it. Will there also be a unarmed version with some improved optics for scout missions?Let's say an borderpatrol UAV. No, because the rockets are internal and the cannons can be pulled back inside the MQ-185 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
andrewza 10 Posted May 1, 2014 I said other. I would like to SEE AGMs and Bombs both GPS guided and LGB bombs. Would make for a interesting setup calling in a drone to drop a LGB you then guide in your self. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
