Any plans to have a newer version of Aces High that will include modern day fighters and vehicles?

nahhhhhhh.. it's the missles that're boring. Now a modern day all-encompasing vehicle sim... That has possibilities. It isnt even done too much.

O.K.. I get the meaasage. Jets are a little to fast for most of you Jenny flyers. After all you do have to think faster in a jet that does Mach 3.  :D

It's not the jets going Mach 3 that concerns us.  It's the radar-guided missile fired from beyond visual range.  There's no dogfighting involved with jets, not by any sane definition of "dogfight," at any rate.  Stick with the "slow" prop planes.

modern air combat is pretty boring.  

What i've always thought might be fun would be cold-war era aircraft, just before guided missiles came into use.  Aircraft with all rocket armament!

Those aircraft that never saw major action could make for an interesting what-if scenario.

What active service combat jet does Mach 3, anyway?

Go play Crimson Skies or something.

I liked Janes ATF Gold but you could only have 4 people to fight at a time.   You learned to avoid the missles and it would become a guns battle soon enough.

O.k. There is no modern era jet that can reach Mach 3 unless it's an X-Type plane. How about F15 Strike Eagle at 2.5 plus. Pretty close. I to think a Pre-WWII would be great before all the missles and crap. Vietnam/Korean era would be real cool! Ofcourse you would have to contend with SAMS and Vulcan type GV's.:eek:
