Hot off the launch of the Chinook CH47D for Microsoft Flight Simulator, Miltech Simulations has announced their next project for the sim will be the world-famous U2 spyplane.

In a post announcing the aircraft on the Microsoft Flight Simulator forums, LikedHare478430 said the upcoming release will feature two variants of the spy plane – the U2R with an analogue cockpit, and the U2S with a glass cockpit.

The package will also come with a mission system ‘inspired by real-life Cold War events including the Cuban missile crisis, the space race, as well as more modern events from the 21st century including last year’s incident involving a Chinese spy balloon which floated over the mainland United States before being shot down off the coast of South Carolina, where U2s were also flown.
