I don't recall having played Comanche in order to compare the two. The other game I spent innumerable hours in was F117A [1] - partially because -- again, my recollection -- one had to damn near real-time fly from the base to the target and then back, all the while in stealth mode, which usually meant going slow and terrain hugging 1: https://www.myabandonware.com/game/f-117a-nighthawk-stealth-fighter-2-0-185#screentabs https://www.myabandonware.com/game/f-117a-nighthawk-stealth-...

Yes, I also played a ton of F117A. The terrible graphics were actually what let me run it and LHX, I had an anemic 386. I only got to play Comanche at my uncle's house. LHX actually looks exactly as I remember it. I remember those blocky polygons very fondly.

I played F-117A, but my favourite by far was definitely F15 Strike Eagle II: https://www.myabandonware.com/game/f-15-strike-eagle-ii-n6 https://www.myabandonware.com/game/f-15-strike-eagle-ii-n6 Around the time of F-117A I discovered Jetfighter II which felt a lot smoother handling wise, it was great to just fly around doing stunts to be honest. I spent a lot of time just doing carrier take-offs with an immediate 360 and back into landing. https://www.myabandonware.com/game/jetfighter-ii-advanced-tactical-fighter-12r https://www.myabandonware.com/game/jetfighter-ii-advanced-ta...
