Project Stealth Fighter

I'm dating myself, but did anyone else play Project Stealth Fighter on the Commodore 64?

Loved that game.

Spent many an hour on that one, an F-14 sim (can't remember the name), and the Pool of Radiance D&D series.  Friend had M$ Flight Sim where all you could do was deliver mail.

(Sorry for the hijack, but) What was Commodore 64 game that had two guys face off on opposite sides of a canyon, throwing knives at each other?  The sounds they made as they got hit was funny.  If you got hit 5 times, you fell into the canyon.  The falling death scream was hysterical.  Sounds weird but it was fun.

 And how can man die better, than facing fearful odds.
 For the ashes of his fathers and the temples of his Gods."

It was a part of a game called Raid on Moscow IIRC. The game had multiple stages where you flew with a jabo, then landed on the red square and started shelling the buildings etc. At some stage was this knife fight.

Edit: I checked wikipedia and it seems I remember wrong, it was some other game of that era anyway. Raid over moscow included almost similar fight against a robot guarding the nuclear plant.

Might be 007 related game or some spy game, I remember playing it and it was hilarious.

That's it!  Spent hours playing that while the paint was drying on my electric football teams.   :)

Wow blast from the past! Yes I played it on the C-64. My first computer was an Atari 800 if I remember correctly. I had Hellcat Ace on cassette tape drive for it. I go mow the yard while the game loaded.  :lol Times have sure changed for the better, but back in those days.. Those were games great entertainment for aircraft buffs.
