Although the realism in this sim/game is limited by it's time, this game is still great. This game is a lot of fun to play. Different types of objectives, targets mixed with locations allow for an everlasting fun experience. You will never fly the same mission twice. You can fly low and slow at 300' and avoid detection and not get a single radar spike al the way home. Or, you could swap your anti-air missiles for some fuel tanks and fly full throttle at max altitude. Drop your bombs and make a run for it while SA-5 SAMs and Su-27s try to catch up with you. This game is quite complex in nature. There are many aircrafts, friendly and foe. Radar is modeled quite complexly both in SAMs and in enemy jets. There are many payloads ot choose from, choose wisely. GOG recently released a patch for this game that adds voice overs in a few occasions. The manual accompanied by this game is the best I have seen on a DOS game. The pdf Image scans are high quality and all text is searchable and chapters make it easy to jump around the pdf. TL;DR: great game, great fun, great manual
