OK, we have BrianJ's LRO/LCROSS package that came with the Atlas V 401 and CCAFS SLC-41, and another Juno package with the 500 series fairing and boosters, but it seems strange that my favorite rocket has yet to be made into a separate add-on package.

What I wish the package would have:

-all currently available versions of the rocket (AVH is optional)

-more fairing choices (there are 3 different fairing lengths available for each of the 400 and 500 series)

-refined performance parameters and autopilots for the rocket

-more detailed launch sites (for CC LC-41, hopefully we'll see the VIB and a moveable MLP; for VAFB LC-3E, the whole launch site)

- (optional) insturctions that allows us to do repaints for the fairings

It definitely deserves something like that the Delta IV's got.

Perhaps you could use the meshes and make it Velcro? That would give you most of those things.

The Atlas V is my favorite rocket, too! I created the JUNO package, but I have not time and I don't have the skills to create something like that...

I'm actually working on it right now, and a Atlas V would be great for it.

[ame="http://orbithangar.com/searchid.php?ID=3462"]Velcro EELVs[/ame] has the Atlas V, although it only has two fairings for the 500 series, and one for the 400s. If someone made the other fairings that would complete the package of the vehicles.

I'll do some digging and see about launch pads.

Edit: I dug for and found Usonian's [ame="http://orbithangar.com/searchid.php?ID=2380"]Vandenberg[/ame] base, which I remembered has SLC-3. I didn't remember that it is pretty simple pad, which might frustrate some people, but it is better than nothing.
