Advanced artificial intelligence Combat Flight Simulator constantly calculates flight stick positions for every enemy plane. Each aircraft is controlled by a sophisticated sighting system that combines realistic fields of view, visual range, and pilot experience level. Expect to face a mix of aces, average pilots, and novices in battle. Fly the real thing The realistic flight models, based on Flight Simulator, will challenge pilots to learn the different characteristics of each airplane. The performance of each aircraft has been tested and validated by WWII pilots including pilots of the Ghost Squadron. Realistic damage Watch fragments fly off your enemy’s plane as he plummets to earth in a spin–you’ll see white smoke from a damaged coolant system, black smoke from burning oil, and debris from explosions that feature accurate radii. Use evasive moves to avoid enemy fire or flying pieces of shattered planes, which can cripple aircraft systems and flight controls. Detailed, historically accurate cockpits The instrument panel in each aircraft is modeled after its real-world counterpart, including metric gauges on the panels of the German planes. Force-feedback support Microsoft Combat Flight Simulator will use the industry-standard technology and build on the success of this feature in Flight Simulator 98.
