That's stupid.  If you replaced all of your "WW2" with "the Great War" then you'd be absolutely correct.  World War Two aerial combat was similar but closer to modern combat than Great War aerial combat was.

Personally, I've always said this about HTC.   IF they do put out a "Newer Planeset, I hope it is WWI."

put modern combat planes is a waste of time no dogfighting needed just locate enemy on radar fire heat seeker mission and move on and in order to do that you would have to make manned ack missles and coujldnt have manned AA cuz it woujld be missles and everything would be crappy war fiar WW2 aircraft and designs are the best..so how bout no AH3 with modern combat :noid :aok

Actually I think Korea would be more fun. Jets with no missiles. Thatd be a hoot.

EDIT: Yes, I said hoot.

I think you guys have a very exaggerated view of what missiles are
c apable of.   If you think the modern fighter jock just gives up and dies
after target lock you must be smoking the good stuff.

     I'm neutral on jet combat, but I can tell you that fire and forget AIMs are
fairly recent and not fool proof.  Thinking everything would be BVR in an
open arena like ours is silly too.  Especially with something like killshooter
on...Holy Fratricide Batman!

     From our Korea scenario in AW, I can say that jet combat tends to
spread things out alot.  Ironically it seemed like you had to fly "softer" at
the higher speeds to prevent G-loc.  You'd anticipate the move from further
out so that your moves would not have to be stick yanking corrections in
closer to the target.

     All of us have our opinions and it's popular to pigpile the guy who
wishes for something like this.  Doesn't mean that it cannot be done or
would lead to Air Quake.  In the end, it's HT's decision as to what he wants
to build..and WW2 is what he knows best so far.

HTC already made a WW1 flight sim for the Red Baron pizza company, or so I heard, you could probably get it off them!
Edit: Well, according to Wikipedia, and the sources were not listed.
