SEPECAT Jaguar

We are proud to bring the mythical Jaguar* to Flight Simulator, marking a historic moment as the first officially licensed Dassault* military aircraft ever developed for public flight simulation.

The SEPECAT Jaguar is an emblem born from a Franco-British cooperation, and left its mark on military aviation history with its sleek design and combat efficiency.

It is a supersonic jet attack aircraft originally used by the British Royal Air Force and the French Air Force in the close air support and nuclear strike role, and exported to many countries.

Its legacy endures through aircraft still in service in some air forces and its influence on the development of modern fighter jets.

This project is the result of over a year of dedicated development, pushing our standards higher than ever. We wanted to create the most accurate and immersive experience, staying true to its unique flight characteristics and operational feel. Throughout the journey, we have listened closely to the community, shaping the project based on your feedback.

As our community was very much in demand for the British GR1 variant, we developed a complete exterior model for this version in addition to the French Jaguar A.

This aircraft was initially developed as a native Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 add-on, but your enthusiasm convinced us to bring it to Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 as well. This shift required a complete rethink of our approach, a challenge we fully embraced to ensure the Jaguar could thrive on this platform.

The native MSFS 2024 product has been built from the ground up using the new modular architecture, taking full advantage of the platform’s capabilities.

Features**:

• Highly detailed 3D model based on 3D scan.
• Ultra high resolution textures based on photoscan.
• Distinct exterior models for A and GR1 variants.
• 16 liveries including both versions.
• Immersive sound package crafted by Echo19.
• Bespoke AI (multiplayer) sounds.
• Initially planned for MSFS 2024, you will find countless small details scattered all around the aircraft.
• Various and settable payload, including static weapons.
• Flight model developed with the help of former Jaguar pilots.
• Fully animated cockpit, including all switches, buttons, breakers, mirrors, etc.
• Custom hydraulic system.
• Replicated fuel system with functional fuel transfer, fuel dumping and external tank implementation.

Exclusive native MSFS 2024 features:

• Functional weapons systems
• Interactive walk-around actions
• Better graphic quality (textures, windshield)
• Tire deformation
• Improved performance optimization
• More realistic hydraulics and fuel systems, based on modular architecture

Weapons system includes missiles and bombs release, external fuel tank jettison and a working cannon.
All weapons follow realistic trajectories, with smooth animations from the pylon to the impact zone, and accurate visual effects (at day and night) both in-flight and on impact.
Our weapons system is purely visual and does not cause actual damage to the environment or other aircraft. Weapons are not shared in multiplayer and cannot aim real targets.
