Has anyone on the net heard anything about "Falcon" an F-16 Combat
Simulation program that was supposed to to be available in August 1986? Now
that it's March '87, I'm beginning to wonder?
It was suppossed to simulate:
" -True to life head-up display
-Flight characteristics of the real F-16
-True feel of fly-by-wire
-Carries true armament of F-16
-See digitized images of enemy Migs
-See landscape, plane, and missiles from the cockpit
"
Sounds very interesting to me, if they can really pull all of this off.
The program was being written by Spectrum Holobyte (the same people who did
Gato and Orbiter).
If you have any info, please let me know....
Thanks ahead of time!
