Recently on their website, X-Plane development group TORQUESIM announced of their near completion of their Pocket Rocket. Partnering with Attitude Simulations, the aircraft features quite an impressive features list:

"This aircraft will be feature filled! Our current (tentative) feature list:"

• Extremely high-detail 3D model
• Full PBR 4K Texturing
• Custom Systems including electrical, engine start, fuel, lighting, and more
• Custom G1000 Engine Sidebars, Annunciators, and Checklists
• Custom G5 Attitude Indicator with PFD features simulated
• Custom FMOD Sound Pack
• Maintenance and Failure simulation
• Custom Load Manager
• Persistent Systems
• Fully custom plugin using C++ and the X-Plane SDK: no compromises for performance
• Includes many different liveries and paint kit
• (expect a full feature list by release)

The developers also stated,

"The Pocket Rocket is a re-creation of a modified Impulse 100 Aircraft. We have installed our version with a PT6A-28 Turboprop engine, giving this light 2-seat aircraft 715 equivalent-shaft-horse-power! Be prepared to cruise up to FL250 at Mach 0.53. With two included variants, Tailwheel and Retractable Tricycle, you can fly this into the back-country or use it for speedy flights around the world. You can go from performing acrobatics to flying cross-country without issue. With over 5 hours of endurance, you can fly this aircraft on tons of flights."

Whilst the aircraft is planned to be sold via X-Aviation, pricing has yet to be decided. For those who wish to stay updated, you can visit the AFM discord channel, blog, and/or the TORQUESIM blog.
