  • Not the best but good enough.

    I enjoyed playing this game but with other air combat games out there I became bored with this one. It is very arcade like when compared with other flight sims I’ve played on my iPad. But my main complaint, no cockpit view! Most air combat sims at least give you a cockpit view and the ability to look around, which is important when your in a dogfight. With this game you can go around and around not seeing the enemies planes until it’s too late. It’s just a point and shoot game. A Cockpit with look around view would improve this game a lot. I know I’m being picky but I’ve played other Third Wire sims and I guess I expected more.

  • The following will improve the simulation

    1. The rate of turn (in degrees of heading ((or pitch)) change per second needs to be relative to the true airspeed, like in a real aircraft,,, I.e. A 7G turn at 450 Knots true airspeed, will be fewer degrees per second than a 7 G turn at 280 knots .
    There’s a mathematical equation to compute the ratio..

    2. Rate of roll increases with increase in airspeed, up to the point of Mach flow separation over ailerons.

    3. Accelerated stall needs to be relative to the G loading vs. stall speed. I.e. If stall occurs at 100 Kts then a 4G level turn will enter a stall at 200 kts.

    4. Energy bleed off seems ok,,, increase in G load results in increase in induced drag, resulting in deceleration, or demand for increasing power.

    5. Please give option for head up display of aircraft attitude and heading.

    6. Increase visibility of gunsight computed “piper” for gun aiming.
    Otherwise, I’ve loved the game, including your older versions.

    As a real life prof aviator, there aren’t many games or simulators I’d say this about

  • Really quite the improvement

    I’ve played the first strike fighters, and I thought it was pretty good, if not a bit crude. I’ve had a few problems with it, mostly the annoying swiping the menu for the aircraft and the lack in interesting missions (or missions at all.) But then you put all the games in one, added newer and more diverse missions, an effective menu and new monetary system, you really outdid yourselves, if there’s anything to gripe about, I’d just like more of the Cold War classics.

  • WWII?

    All of the strike fighter games have been Cold War, modern and future but no WWII. If a WWII strike fighters comes out I might not get the free one but go right to the pro version just because I love WWII planes and I love third wire's games but other than that all of the strike fighter games are awesome
    (Edit) where did the old Strike Fighter games go like legends, I payed for the full version and now whenever I try to play it crashes and now I’m kinda disappointed

  • Great Mechanics

    Setting aside the low quality graphics the core game mechanics are great. It’s ultra realistic and has the best selection of aircraft from any of the other games I’ve tried. Really fun to play but a bit too much grinding. Overall I would definitely recommend this game to anyone interested.
  • Review of Strike Fighter

    At first, I’d would have given this game 5 stars until I ran out of planes and difficulty. Now I’m playing the game because I’m bored. Now all I do is kill jet fighters with missiles and once in awhile I might get lucky and shoot down a plane.

    If you have to start charging for a pro-version to earn more levels and capabilities, that’d be great, as long as you didn’t ‘nickel-&-dime’ us.

    Wait too long and someone else will build a better mousetrap 😆

  • Great game!

    This is so far one of the best simulators I’ve tried. Physics are pretty much as spot on as the can get, the missions are fun and challenging, and most important of all it’s mostly realistic.
    There was s only one thing I would like to be added to the game. A cockpit view that you can toggle on and off. I feel it will help with accuracy.

  • Awesome

    Great fighter game compared to all the others out there. The ability to ($3.99) change your weapon loadout is awesome. Huge selection of planes but some you have to unlock and some you have to buy. Deplorable counter measures, laser, gps and unguided bombs, air to ground missiles such as the maverick and harm, good dog fighting, it’s not impossible to shoot enemy aircraft down with your guns.
    The only thing I didn’t like was that you cannot switch to the next target after you have launched a munition.

  • Better than other sf games

    This game is definitely better than attack and normal. You get a variety of nations such as Japan, china, and even Korea. Also, unlike the others in the series you actually have allies!!! Keep up the good work there is flaws though, 1: pls add cockpit? 2: the ai doesn't use chaff 3: the allies aware always stealing my kills and making grinding hard

  • Needs more content

    The game itself is very fun and can be addictive but it can get stale after a while. It needs more variety in the missions. Such as different scenarios, naval battles moving ground targets, allied ground forces, attack helicopters, strategic bombers, buildings and maybe more challenging ai.
