Recommend me a good modern combat flight sim (ie jets)

[nsafreak]

I've been itching for a good combat flight simulator to play but I'm not sure what's out there that's any good. I'm not sure if Microsoft Combat Flight Simulator is all that great or what else that is new that's out there. I've played a few of the Janes games in the past but I haven't seen any new releases from them. I'm up for either helicopter combat flight sims or fighter jet combat flight sims, or one that has both.

how about America's Army? very fun game and realistic too.

Falcon 4 sucks. It is an upgrade to 3 and no improvement on the graphics engine. Lock On has a reputation of being good.

And don't get me wrong, Falcon 3 is a most excellent simulator. The graphics are just really dated.

flight sims are pretty much a dead genre now just like the space flight sims.

Why not just BF2 ? Has a little bit of everything

Why are some of you mentioning games outside the genre he asked about? He isn't asking for any military game, he is asking for a military game within the flight sim genre.

Falcon 3.0 is pretty authentic (flight model wise)... Graphics are dated, but there are many add-ons or mods for it. My Dad was a former pilot and swears by it (and at it) quite often...

Pontifex nailed it though, it is a rather dead genre...

Comanche 4 was reported to be arcadey but fun for helos.

1) bf2 sucks
2) good luck actually getting into the jet and not being tk'ed by every little 12 year old who wants it also.
3) not every map has a jet
4) bf2 sucks
5) its not even close to what a flight sim offers
6) bf2 sucks
