Vickers VC-10 3D model

cgtrader

This aircraft model is inspired by the design of the Vickers VC-10, a four-engine, civilian passenger aircraft.The Vickers VC10 is a long-range British airliner and first flown at Brooklands, Surrey, in 1962. The airliner was designed to operate on long-distance routes from the shorter runways of the era. The performance of the VC10 was such that it achieved the fastest London to New York crossing of the Atlantic by a jet airliner, a record still held to date for a sub-sonic airliner; only the supersonic Concorde was faster.Although only a small number of VC-10s were built, they provided long service from the 1960s to 1981. They were also used from 1965 as strategic air lifters for the Royal Air Force, and ex-passenger models and others were used as aerial refueling aircraft. The type was officially retired by the RAF on 20 September 2013, and the last two VC10 tankers made their final flights on 24 and 25 September.The VC10 is often compared to the larger Soviet Ilyushin Il-62, since both aircraft have a rear-engined quad layout, the two types being the only airliners with such a configuration.Product Features:* Includes "group" information, which your software should interpret as separate parts and allow you to move the rudder, wing flaps (elevators and ailerons), and more.* Includes landing gear which your software should interpret as a separate part: hide or show it to suit the needs of your scene.* Includes all five texture sets seen in the promotional images, at 2048x2048 pixels- British Collaborian- Kantas- Western Airlines- Royal Airways- Shamrock Air* Templates are included and some templates are color-coded according to material.* The tail and wings are separate materials for easier customizing.
