Solid, but not great.
It is by no means a bad game, but not great either. Another of those Micro Prose simulators that improved on F-19/F-117 engines this time with campaigns that look like being dynamic. Namely, when you enter the campaign you shall get a short overview, and afterward, you shall be given your first mission to fly. Nothing has changed much since F-117 and F-15E Strike eagle, you shall get the primary and a secondary target - you should hit at least one of them, but preferably both, and in addition, you should make as much carnage as you can. If you do that when you are issued with the next mission you shall see that a few friendly units appeared on the map where before only the enemy stood. If you repeat your success a sufficient number of times, more and more allied units shall be on the map until you encircle the main enemy strongholds and earn a win. If you eject three times from your plane the top brass shall conclude you are not the man for this job and your career ends. There are two types of Harrier available - AV-8B and Gr.7 - but there ain't much difference between them. You would expect AIM-120 AMRAAM on the US jet but that would put it too far above GR so it is not possible. You would not expect GR.7 to have radar but it has it etc etc. With some training, I could handle everything on hard/realistic level except landing on a ship. Besides campaigns, you can play a single day or a single mission, but I never felt a desire to play so. When you exceed expectations (in the campaign you better exceed them on regular basis) game shall award you with medals (British or American, depending on the model you fly) or promotions. It is a solid game, but I would recommend playing first Micro Prose F-14 Fleet Defender game (also available on Gog.com) for a better experience, and when you get tired of it try this one.
