Ahh, games that you can't really emulate, or Flight Sims as they were known then with nearly every key doing something you had a cardboard surround for the keyboard so you knew what did what.
F-16 was not the best looker but it made up with it by having an absurdly deep gameplay loop with loads of missions and a grand campaign which added a wargame style strategic layer. A must play for the Sim mob.

I loved this, especially the grand campaign where you could pick interdiction targets that would have a specific effect on the enemy's overall strategic situation. Or did it?
It just reduced their "effectiveness %age" by a bit. But I enjoyed the campaign mode anyway. It felt like a real ongoing military effort to defeat a powerful enemy. 3D models were good for 1989 and ran smoothly on the A500.

Yet another F-16 simulator for the Amiga. This one leans more toward realism than Interceptor or F-15 Strike Eagle II, but still has a lot of action. Definitely worth playing.

This was quite an in depth sim... Just look at everything that was going on in that front cockpit view! This game really made me feel like i was in charge of a very sophisticated jet fighter!! Loved it!

There is some cool missions here, and without doubt a good simulator. But there are better ones out there. It could have looked better.
