Do you wish for a more immersive virtual flying experience when playing flight sims like the Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020? If you do and you also happen to specialize in military aircraft such as fighter jets, well then you may want to get yourself a flight sim setup such as the Next Level Racing Flight Simulator Boeing Military Edition.
Don’t worry. It is not made by Boeing. Oops. Too soon? Anyhoo, the Next Level Racing Flight Simulator Boeing Military Edition is a dedicated cockpit designed for maximum simulation immersion and as the name implies, it boasts Boeing-inspired components like green canvas seat covering and military green highlights.
While it is referred to as the “military edition” it is perfectly suited for general aviation, commercial flight, and even space exploration users – in addition to combat flight.
Like any good simulator rig, it is compatible with flight electronics such as flight yokes, joysticks, rudders, and throttles from all major brands like Thrustmaster, Logitech, Saitek, Honeycomb, Virtual Fly, Crosswind, and more.
Next Level Racing Flight Simulator Boeing Military Edition includes keyboard and mouse support for easy navigation with custom Next Level Racing keyboard and mouse pads.
The rig also further includes a Buttkicker adaptor, Next Level Racing four-point harness, and lumbar support. It does not have motion but if you can make it range-motion compatible, you will need to pick up the Next Level Racing Motion Plus Platform Adaptor.
The simulator offers a wide range of adjustments for a custom flight experience. The setup is suitable for a wide range of user height from 120 to 210 cm (4 ft to 6 ft 9 inches) and supports up to 150 kilograms or 330 pounds.
Owning this thing not only requires US$799 of your hard-earned money but you will need to shell out more money for the flight sim hardware like joystick, yokes, monitor(s) and whatnot, which are not included, and you need quite some space.
The rig measures 153 cm long, 99 cm wide, and 122 cm high (60.2 x 39 x 48 inches) but you will need a bit more space than exactly that – especially if you are looking at a multi-monitor setup.
