Basic characteristics of this plane were transferred from the project from beginning of 90’s, in which the carrier of armament was suppose to be Il-114 (TOP). Application of this idea gives possibility to fire the enemy simultaneously from both sides of fuselage as well as directly from under the plane, which makes construction of this aircraft, in its category, most advanced in the world. Additionally, feature, that distinguishes this plane is installation of armament in two turrets that are placed under aircrafts fuselage. Russian An-12 Aurora is armed with powerful howitzer 120 mm, which is the biggest cannon ever assembled in the aircraft. Our simulator users will have to their disposal newest systems - ANR - 3D-Audio and Active Noise Reduction, ASPS - Aircraft Self Protect System. All those aircraft construction changes and improvements have been also included in the game. Despite his 53 completed years, aircraft is doing well and is continuously updated with new termovision systems, night-vision and modern passive air defense systems. Moreover, this equipment has been verified in many conflicts fought in Europe, Africa and Asia, as AC-130 had its baptism of fire in 1967 in Vietnam. AC-130 Gunship – so far (before the official premiere An-12 Aurora) is the most powerful carrier of artillery armament in the world.
