LockOn [0] (formerly known as Flanker, IIRC) and DCS World (never played that one) look quite cool.

- rurounijones 8y agoLock-On became DCS world. DCS extends the Lock-on codebase and added a ton of new features (and bugs, unfortunately, but on balance still good)
- zokier 8y agoThe lineage is bit complicated, but mostly Lock-On became Flaming Cliffs 2 and 3, and now they are going back to "Modern Air Combat" branding.
- senozhatsky 8y agoGood ol' days. I miss Flanker 2.0/2.5. Sort of liked Crimea better than Caucasus. -ss
