The X-02 Project

Introduction

(TL;DR included at the bottom)

Hey Reddit! As I'm sure many of you know, Bandi Namco Entertainment have just released Ace Combat 7 on console and PC. As somewhat of an aircraft enthusiast, the Ace Combat series has always appealed to me. I admit to only having played Shattered Skies, Assault Horizon, and Skies Unknown (soon), but my love of aircraft remains.

As you continue to read this post, please keep in mind that I'm just the guy with the idea. I encourage whatever mod-makers would like to jump on said idea to let me know (see Contact Info / Project Hub)!

 

The Idea

Seeing gameplay footage of Skies Unknown made me nostalgic so I decided to do some research on the older games. In Shattered Skies, there is a bonus aircraft you can unlock called the X-02 Wyvern. I didn't know this aircraft existed at the time as I was too young to care to unlock everything.

Put simply, I would love to see this aircraft implemented into Arma 3. Now, I myself have little to no experience in modeling, rigging, texturing, or modding in general. That is why I come to you. If you have experience in modding and are interested in this project, there is more useful information below, including some of my contact information.

Post it here. Also a small heads up, most of the more experienced heads on the forums don't usually respond well to the "ideas guy" persona. Why not give it a go yourself, there's dozens of tutorials out there, why not take a stab at it?
