Shouldn't the VTB flying Falcon 4 AF? The FM are said to be much more accurate than LOMAC's F15.

Yes, I enjoy FSX, it's really nice to fly slow movers with.
VRS F18 Superbug is said to raise the bar, though, as far as jets are concerned.


As to F4AF...well...as Panther mentioned, the netcode isn't up to it. Lots of lag spikes that kill formations. Plus the alignment varies depending on where it's being viewed from. In order to look "in" on the Boss' computer, right and left wing essentially have to move up to line abreast from their own perspective.

In FC1 yes, it was an F-16 graphic model on the F-15 flight model. Generally in FC2 we've been flying with our model pasted over the AI F-16. The flight model is great in some ways (speeds and fuel burns seem better - we tend to match the real team's fuel burn pretty well based on the ops checks from audio) but has other disadvantages.

It's not just about flight model...it's about which sim allows us to present the show in the most authentic way possible.
