The Tupolev Tu-154M is one of those aircraft that immediately stands out. Its shape, sound, cockpit layout, and operating philosophy are very different from the aircraft most commonly seen in today’s flight simulation world.
That is exactly what makes it so interesting for us.
It is a demanding aircraft with a very distinct personality. It comes from a different era of aviation, with different design ideas, different workflows, and a very unique technical character. For us, this makes the Tu-154M a perfect fit.
After the Boeing 727, we asked ourselves what kind of aircraft could follow. We were looking for something special, something unusual, and something that would bring a new kind of experience to Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024.
The Tu-154M quickly became the answer.
Built with Passion and Real-World Connection
Our Tupolev Tu-154M is being developed with a strong focus on authenticity, system depth, and atmosphere.
Lead developer Anatolii has fully immersed himself in this aircraft and brings first-class references to the project. His connection to the Tu-154M is also deeply personal: his father flew this very aircraft type as a pilot.
This gives the project a special background. It is not only about recreating an aircraft from documents and photos. It is also about understanding the aircraft, its real-world operation, and the feeling behind it.
For us, this makes the project even more meaningful.
