Never been there...but by M. J. Mier (Redmond WA) 5 Stars
April 27, 2005
You read all the books about the Air War in Vietnam....and you wonder whats it was like. This isn't a cockpit view, this is more like an Air operations officer view. Its like You're the Air Boss on a Carrier and you wonder how many birds are coming back. You plan your strikes or command your aircraft in real life scenarios and watch what happens. All the era aircraft, and some surprises (Like the U2). I thoroughly enjoyed taking a crack at planning an Alpha strike. If you are at all interested in the Air War in Vietnam...this is a must have. The game even has radio chatter and sound effects. I felt anxious as I directed a squadron of B-52's on an Arc Light Strike, hoping they would all make it through. Really makes you appreciate what they had to endure. The game was also inexpensive, easy to load on my computer, and runs without any hassles. Get it...its worth it.
