What about DCS: A-10C Warthog

RealFlight. Awesome model airplane sim.

Widjaja · Oct 10, 2012, 11:35 AM

As far as war planes go I hear the Warthog flight sim is one of the best, but nothing which is modern day without more arcade feel unless you go for a flight sim with commercial planes like FSX or Microsoft Flight.

WW1 combat flight sim, free to play, comes with 2 planes free. Online, free mission and campaing mode.

F-22 Raptor and F-22 Lightning 3 are still good old classics. They kinda suck graphics wise but i totally loved dropping nukes in F-22 Lightning 3.

I remember playing F-16 Multirole Fighter (the night missions @_@) and MiG-29 Fulcrum. My all time favorites back then. Finally got hands over F-22 Lightning 3 a couple of months ago, but the graphics seemed too dated :/

I think F-22 Rapter had worse graphics than the above three (older engine).

Anyway, H.A.W.X is a fun game.

Falcon 4.0 was to be the Flight Sim for the F-16C

punisher186 · Oct 18, 2012, 06:52 AM

New one just popped up on Steam: http://store.steampowered.com/app/214130/ It sure looks promising, but it takes up 24GB of space

Airplane gameplay: Aerofly FS simulator: first Cessna 172 SP tests - ...
Jet gameplay: Aerofly FS : The Hornet - YouTube

I wonder if they added bird strikes. :-)

Has nothing to do with aircraft, though.

Falcon 4.0 gets my vote. Pretty hardcore, though.

Carrier Landing with F-16 in Falcon AF - YouTube

thats nearly impossible to do because of the durability of the Landing Gear, Also F-16s dont have ability to catapult launch.

Falcon 4: Allied Force People's Republic of Ch...

these two videos remind me of my time while in as an F-16 Maintainer, USAF Vet as of 20120331.
