Falcon 4.0: Allied Force - Pilot three different variants of the F-16 Fighting Falcon

Pilot three different variants of the F-16 Fighting Falcon -- the best multi-role fighter ever built -- including Block 40, Block 50/52 and MLU variants. Ultra-high fidelity physics modeling closely simulates actual aircraft performance.

Engage the enemy in two operational theaters -- Korea and the Balkans -- each covering over a million square Kilometers of territory. Dogfight over a wide variety of landscapes: wide seas, open grasslands, dense forests and snow capped mountains. Fly nap-of-earth missions through detailed terrain and undulating valleys.

Launch a variety of air-to-air missiles like the AIM-120 AMRAAM and AIM-9 Sidewinder. Deploy a vast array of air-to-ground weaponry including the AGM-65 Maverick, AGM-88 HARM, cluster bombs, slick and high drag bombs and laser guided ordnance. Weapon systems are simulated using the most accurate publicly available specifications.

Simulate an entire war with the most advanced dynamic campaign engine ever made for your PC. This remarkable feature presides over tens of thousands of vehicles: air, land and sea. No two missions ever fly the same so your in for a surprise!

What's New in This Release:

Avionics / Weapons:
· Fixed GM radar mode to show moving as well as static targets. GMT mode still only shows moving targets.
· GM radar mode now shows all objects but only vehicles/objects stationary are lockable. If a vehicle moves faster than km/hr , it will break lock.
· GMT radar mode shows vehicles moving faster than few KM/hr speed threshold. They can be locked as long as they remain moving.
· Improved Sea mode target detection ( 0 speed threshold ).
· Fixed Air-to-Ground radar freeze mode so that the cursor can be moved to lock contacts after freezing.
Data:
· AGM-88 HARM set so that only one vehicle gets destroyed.
· Frigates (Jangwei, Ulsan) will now show up on RWR with ship option enabled. Both now have some AAA/AD weapons.
· Adjust RWR priority sensitivity on some aircraft (e.g. MiG-29 and Su-27-37 family)
Campaign:
· AWACS menu fix: should fix cases where an AWACS is in the air, but from another friendly team and thus can not be accessed. They should be visible now.
· Limit EF-18G missions to only ECM and SEAD roles.
