Silver is usable! But there are flaws…
Edit: Hello! Silver is usable now! I can finally use the silver to get my jets! The new modes are good, but please bring back arcade mode. Don’t replace it because it was really good. Another flaw is the lag that goes on. When the new update came, the game lagged more, and kept kicking me out. The last thing I want to discuss are my stats. For people who don’t know, you click the button with the pilot, and it shows how much planes you downed, ground targets destroyed, etc. And when the game lags, it kicks me out. Then when I log in, my stats are wiped. I re-log in, and it is still wiped. I have to re-grind all of my stats all over again. I hope this can also be fixed. Then, how you randomly die by getting shot down on the base capture mode. They give no warnings, then you just die. Especially if I have to go CAS and destroy enemy SAM sites. Other than that, I like the game, but until all of that is fixed, I will give it a well deserved 5 star rating, and maybe even spend money. Yes it is a lot, but this will improve the game.
Hello readers and developers! I really like this game. It is really awesome and here are my reasons. It has high graphics, fun gameplay, detailed cockpits, and more! But I have just one problem. The game is entirely pay to win. You need money to buy gold, and the silver currency is actually useless. You cannot buy any planes in the game with silver. Yes, the A-10 and Mig-21 are awesome planes, and I really like them. I really hope future updates allow the silver to be useable and more maps, and planes will be included. And hopefully a new country, like Russia!
Thank you for reading this.

Long Time Follower
I’ve been a big fan of Phanotek games for a long time, especially since the original Gunship III era. When I say this is simultaneously one of the best, one of the most accurate, and yet one of the most simplistic flight simulators out there, I truly feel as if it is. I acknowledge the current version is an early access, and while there are some features (such as the need to purchase individual armaments,) that I am not the fondest of, while others like the full interactivity of the cockpit is immaculate. Great game, would rate an additional sixth star if I could, already recommended it to my friends! P.S. Please don’t make have to buy an AIM-9

Writing as of the introduction of the new shop
I would give the game 5 stars if it wasn’t for the new weapon shop.
For anyone reading this, the recent update introduces a new shop mechanic that the player can spend in game currency to restock their weaponry (silver, bronze, and gold).
Pricing is fair. That’s because the rewards really well for both online pvp and single player (which I primarily play on). My concern would be if the devs somehow make the rewards underwhelming that I have to spend gold currency (which can only be acquired through real money) instead of the silver and bronze.
Hopefully they won’t resort to the concerns that I’ve mentioned as the game, like I mentioned previously, is balanced in terms of restocking weaponry.
To the devs: please don’t make any plans of depleting weaponry when I’m shot down without firing them. But you guys are doing well and this is my favorite game as we speak.

Waste of time
You can’t even get off the ground until you buy additional credits to get the jet, missiles and other items.
Great game but multiplayer missions crash my game
My game just won’t start on any multiplayer mission, and even the training mission creator, idk if it’s a phone issue (iPhone 13 recently repaired) or a game issue because GS3 and CLHD multiplayer work just fine??
Great game, but…
Amazing game but I feel you like you shouldn’t need to spend real money to get the planes you desire to play, some type of real progression would transform this game into top 10 mobile game material.
Great Bones, Paywall Ruins it
Overall the mechanics and everything are great but everything being behind a paywall ruins it, I hate the fact that your locked to one aircraft. I get you guys gotta make money but atleast make a couple premium aircraft and keep most aircraft free
An issue I would like to address.

Impressed
Amazing game and addictive for sure. Technical tutorials (readable or videos) would help significantly. Explanation of missiles and munitions in game would be helpful. Radar lock is very confusing to use, and half the time you don’t know who you have exactly locked on to, especially in the mig25. I keep accidentally locking onto friendlies and I get a message Ive been reported even though its not intentional at. At least put visible marker on who you are locked onto so you don’t mistakenly friendly fire.

joystick mode
i really love this game its really cool and realistic but theres just one thing i cant play it well without a joystick and i find it really hard to play with gyro so if you could add a joystick option that would really be great since it would make it an easier experience
b
it’s a rly good game tbh. graphics are good i love the modern desert storm but one problem, at least make some planes xp unlock because im not tryna spend any money on games and only way to get gold is buy buying it. and plus we earn xp for nothing cuz theres no xp unlock planes like in arcade im in a mig21 going against an f15. but overall its a solid game

Very good game
It is a good game but I am hoping in the near future that you will implement an f2p way of unlocking aircraft as I would love to get the mig-25
I’m no longer a Phanotek customer. Phanotek deserves to go bankrupt.
This game is a very predatory P2W “Live Service” game. You cannot play offline and you get very few aircraft. Even if we were to buy an aircraft, we still can’t play offline without paying a damn subscription on top of the cost of buying a plane.
Get Armed Air Forces instead, it’s a much better game.

Fantastic game
I’ve been testing it for months now and have to say I’m impressed. The developers are constantly improving the game, the graphics and flight models look really great and there is incredible realism. This is the closest thing to DCS on mobile, and in my opinion the best flight sim on the App Store. I’ve had a lot of fun playing it and look forward to many more hours

Naval aviation?
I would rate this game a 4.5 due to the unbalanced economy of the game. Besides that this is the best mobile aviation game I’ve seen and played. Iam a naval aviation geek so besides the F-14 I was wondering about planes like the EKA-3 Skywarrior. It served its last missions in the gulf war as a tanker and electronic warfare aircraft. Another one is the E-2 Hawkeye which was and still is the navys awacs, so you could make it playable for a way to gain passive currency especially when you create a room which remove the enemy designation. The last one is the C-2 greyhound which was and is the navys COD (though it’s being replaced which makes me sad) or carrier onboard delivery aircraft, make it do like cargo missions from US bases to resupply the carrier.
All the planes I mentioned I request is playable by players. Also please do some updates to GSIII.

Knit picky
Update #2: I already gave you guys the praise you deserve. Still 5 stars for sure. Great job with the updates, it seems as if they are coming out reasonably fast to correct the bugs. That being said, one bug that is making me so frustrated is the fact that during base capture and after you have spent all of that time destroying the SAMs and AAA, and just as you go to land to take the base over they reappear and shoot you out of the sky . FIX PLEASE!

What do i have to say
Overall i love everything in this game
Greatness
Real cockpits with working switches, rwr, radar, mfd. Great graphics all around. Based on Desert Storm era with regular updated. Best mobile sim by far.
