Product Description

Product Description

Combines all the exciting missions of Air Warrior 2 with four new Pacific planes, six new campaigns over the Pacific Ocean and Europe, and heart-pounding, stomach-churning, accelerator-enabled 3-D graphics. With new, detailed landscape and aircraft art, and enhanced artificial intelligence, Air Warrior 3 is the ultimate dogfighting simulation game. Are you up for the challenge?

The US Navy's newest weapon--in action. Climb into the cockpit of the F/A-18E Super Hornet, the ultimate Carrier Strike Fighter. Take the controls as you prepare to be launched by catapult shot from the deck of a US aircraft carrier, hurled skyward with your throttle wide open. Experience the thrill of extreme G's as you leap from the carrier deck, speeding towards Mach 1 and your ultimate destination. Perhaps this time it's a dangerous missile strike deep in enemy territory.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not just 2, actually a holy 3 in 1!, 19 Jan 2003

(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
I guess tat this is a case of Buy One, Get One For Free(BOGOFF)! Air Warrier 3 is a very slight improvement on Air Warrier 2, though it all seems to be more of the same. The only difference is that the ground has some textures, which are okay, and match the grainy look of the cockpit interiors and wings. These, however are con'vincing and rank as the best cockpit interior views of any PC flight sim. The action is fast, though each battle is set piece and has similar outcomes each time. There is no pad-lock (cheat!) view, so the authenticity of scanning the skies for enemy planes is brought to life here. Apart from that, there is no realistic gauges, and the flight dynamics are dodgy, though fluid.

The sound is without radio, but something of the long waits and brief action that suddenly disappears as quickly as it began ( as in real WW2 etc. experience) IS captured. This is somewhat a thinking mans WW2 and Korean combat sim. TZhere is a need for strategy as all the planes in your flight will follow your every move (Follow me as I follow Him). There is a wealth os planes and missions however, but this very much an online game in disguise.

The F/A-18 Carrier Fighter is a typical (if ther is such a thing) F-18 Hornet sim. The plane does what it is meant to do, and the cockpit is great and easy to see every thing when you need it. The game takes ages to start, and the ground and see textures are mininmal (probably not a problem in a furball at 20,000ft!). There is a variety of see, ground attack and dogfight/missile combats, but it is all a bit sprse. NB you need a very high res screen and a joystick to even make this work at all!

Finally... there isanother superior demo included, "WarBirds" is a great big sim that is superior to AW3 in gauges anmd with similar all round cockpit details that ae stunning. the demo plays well enough, and this is the real winner (though not mentioned on the box!), with British, American, Japanese and German fighters and Bombers included. Its meant to be online, but is great offline too.
