Drivable SSN Los Angeles (West)

The Vigilante SSN Los Angeles was purposely designed for anti-submarine operations centered on countering boats that would more than likely be targeting important US Naval carrier battle groups. This vehicle blueprint is fully rigged, has animated missile shafts, snorkel, radar, front & rear hydroplanes, antennas, and rudders. Textures, and propeller thrust FX are included.

The vehicle is ready for import into your DIS/HLA (RPR FOM) simulation projects. The asset is set up as a traditional Unreal vehicle without an interior but can be modified as needed to suit your purpose. It is drivable with proper physics performance by using Epic Games Water plugin. The Water system plugin must be enabled for vehicle movement to work. Also, the environmental clouds are utilizing the Volumetrics plugin from Epic Games.

A sample showcase/demo Blueprint has been included with an environment map and User Interface (UI). When you "Play" the map, the UI includes camera presets, sliders, and buttons to demonstrate the key functionalities of the vehicle. From this map you can also start driving the vehicle.

Disclaimer: This asset uses the Volumetrics plugin and the Water system plugin from Epic Games for demonstration purposes only. The vehicle asset can be used and modified without these plugins enabled in your personal projects.

The Volumetrics plugin is used for the clouds in the scene by utilizing the volume creation and rendering tools therein.

The Water system plugin allows the user to view the vehicle's look on water surfaces and it is used for buoyancy and movement, which allows users to apply vehicle physics simulations to make realistic vehicle movement at sea.

All rights of the Volumetrics plugin and the Water system plugin are the exclusive property of Epic Games. Vigilante does make any warranties, inferred or implied, regarding the use of Epic's plugins.
