Needs the Kosovo War in which Scott O Grady was shot down.
Maybe add the Iraq Air Force of both desert storm and modern day eras please? You could also add more cockpit views too, of maybe the MiG-21, MiG-29, F-35, and possibly the F-15 too! The Syrian Arab Air Force also flies the L-39 trainer/attack aircraft in real life, you could add to your rogue nations pack maybe? Can you also bring back the classic mission modes from your older, formers games? You could even redo the upgrade planes into slots under the first planes. Even skin changes slots for each plane of air forces and eras.
Great game needs more modern weapons aim-260, laser guided zuni, maybe even a couple hypersonics since we already have bombers and prototype aircraft.
Could you add all the NATO countries on here please.
Great base game but our favorite was the straight dogfighting Korean War game they had. We cant find it anywhere and we used to play it with friends and it was so fun to kill some time with. 3 stars only because we cant seem to find the one we want.
Go get another game because it has bad words in it.
F-111C for Australia as it was retired in 2011 and you have the German MiG-29 and it was retired in 2003. The F-117 for Modern USAF as it is still used today as a trainer and was used up to 2008 we believe. Most importantly a option to save a load out for a mission for example 1991 USN A-6E SWIP being able to automatically have 4 AGM-84E SLAM missiles on Strike missions if you own the Custom load-out pack. Chinese H-6 bombers. North Korea IL-28 bomber. Armed Recon for Desert Storm. Strike mission for modern era. A option to choose the hour of day. Maybe the ability to watch like 3 ads and get 100k?
The only noticeable flaw with the game is that the game cant tell a anti ground mission from an anti ship mission for the ai. We would also recommend making an F-14D [upgrade] which gives it more modern ammo such as AIM-9X and AIM-120. We would also also recommended making an AIM-152 for it as well.
The latest update (as of 4/2033) removed the $ shopping to the in-app purchases for the second time. Two reasons to knock off 2 stars off a decent game with high replayability once you pay for the mission designer.
Almost everything is paywall, and the gameplay is both shallow and repetitive because of it. The original version was better.
Simply put this game is a downgrade from strike fighters attack. Whatever review you have for this game. Older releases are 2 stars better.
The weapon customization screen is broken, we are not able to customize our load out for some reason.
Great game, keeps us occupied while idle at work. We’ve been playing for 10 years, started on our Kindle Fire. We would absolutely love to get a timeframe a little older than Vietnam back, like Korea or even WW2 so we could enjoy those older flight models again.
Love everything from Thirdwire, but the insane cost of aircraft makes constant playing more of a chore than enjoyment. Anyway we can get more credits per mission or maybe reduce costs on aircraft?
The older version of the game was way better. The Number #1 most frustrating aspect of this game as it is now is your own wingmen. They steal all the targets before you even have a chance to play. They spawn closer to the targets and fire off a dozen bombs and missiles before you can even get a lock on. Then If youre trying to bomb targets theyre like, Rifle, Rifle, Rifle, bombing all your targets regardless of any fighters in the area, but the second you switch to AA Missiles to go after the fighters, they’re all Fox2 Fox2 Fox2!! Almost like designers did it intentionally. Very frustrating. Wish they just take the friendly aircraft out of the game.
Overall gameplay is fairly decent approximately five minutes although after every game you have to watch an ad there is a lot of woke advertising although. As well as new woke holidays . That said if you purchase the bomber back somethings not right as they dont load with weapons and instantly get a mission fail . After trying to contact the company to no avail we had to go to Apple to get our money back.
The game is excellent. Its fairly realistic and easy to learn how to play. The only thing we would really like to see are the addition of the air forces of Switzerland and Austria.
Greetings, we love this game a lot and it is super fun and pretty realistic for what it is. One thing that we would love to see a change in is making it easier to gather aircraft and easier to obtain credits. Instead of playing 60 times over and over. It would make it more enjoyable and we would love to expand our collection. If a bigger reward from battles was granted it would go a lot better. And improve the already solid game.
Normally 5 stars love this game. No complaints other than add the Korean War! Has compatibility issues with iOS 16 on iPhone 14 Pro Max.
Id like to begin with the fact that this game is awesome. Its by FAR one of the best fighter jet games we’ve ever played and enjoy playing it. We would like more mission types added though like SEAD missions and maybe have the growler put in the game. We hope the game keeps growing and has a good future.
Excellent game for people who want to play with actual weapons and airplanes, but it really needs a pvp mode.
Great game, just wish new scenarios would show up.
We think that this game is great, but it only has 4-5 modes. You should also be able to dodge missiles but you cant, you have to flare them off. Other than that this game is tons of fun, with lots of aircraft and weapons.
This Is a really good game for anyone to kill some time,I also have a suggestion of adding WWII planes.
Its a good game we wish it could be updated to have better graphics though.
This game is good as it is, but honestly, a sort of campaign would make things a bit more fun (with the missions being an easy way to rack up credits). Heck, perhaps even a multiplayer option could reignite interest (if you guys can make it work with the current mechanics)
We really love this game but unfortunately what turns us away is the horrendous grind 600 for 6 targets not bad not great but the planes are stupidly long to get and can be grindey at times the combat is solid we love the feeling of engaging the enemy or doing ground attack missions so we beg of you increase payouts because planes are way to expensive.
Air Force planes in Vietnam dont have flares. Air Force did use flares in Vietnam. Also, PLEASE add Korean War! We really miss Strike Fighters Legends because we loved flying the F-86 and the F9F.
We wish they would add a few aircraft like Italian F-104 S for the Cold War. We would love to see more countries like Cuba, in say the Cold War as well. An F-104 ASA-M model in the modern combat, and it would be cool to see. Plus we would love to see some more planes from countries like Libya, South Africa, etc. And maybe have more missions to take out hostile AWAX, or something like that and or airfields to bomb. We know thats asking a lot but ya know we just love playing this and we would love to see it grow!
We have been a long time fan of the Strike fighters series, It would be interesting if there were helicopters like the Apache longbow, hind and black shark in the modern era, it would be nice of you to make these free to the public or at least make them cost in game money. It would be interesting if search and rescue missions could take place with helicopters such as the black hawk and chinook. Please take this into consideration as it would make the game a lot more interesting.
This game is great, a lot of planes from around the globe, there are some prototypes too, but we dont saw for example the: F-20 Tigershark The Greatest Fighter Never Made Quote: From an armchair generals perspective there is no reason this shouldnt be in service all around their globe. Why a small air force would need something as complex as the F-16 seems absurd. Add in the fact that the F-5 was used as the aggressor aircraft for the US aircraft to train its front line fighters how to dogfight and it gets even more confusing. Until the F-22 and F-35 came along there was nothing that could out maneuver a F-5 or F-20. This was a future that was never meant to be. Source F-20 Tigershark The Greatest Fighter Never Made posted By Fodder, on May 24th, 2012 This plane was the main character plane in the manga: "Area 88", a manga from the 80s, an all time manga aviation classic. Please thirdwire, add this plane to the game.
We bought one pack. It was the custom loadout one. After that we were interested in getting the pack that had the cockpit view. But then we realized the game doesnt show our the other packs any more. No reinforcement packs no vehicle pack. No more packs and we were wondering why. But we like the game but make cockpit view free come on now. Its the most simple thing ever.
We absolutely love this game, however the amount of money that needs to be paid to buy something is kind of absurd, especially with how many countries and scenarios are locked. Also, we do believe that Serbia should be a part of the rouge nations because they are on the Kosovo map.
The game is great. We love the aircrafts dont really like the p2w but other than that its good. First of all, the way missiles launch is weird, like the f35, when the weapon bays open up, the missiles launch immediately instead of dropping down and activating their engines and we hope they fix that. What missiles lock onto is also weird like the JASSM, they lock onto shilkas or something that has radar instead of being a standoff weapon like it is which the HARM should be doing but doesnt want to. Please fix this.
Idea for a new prototypes group; F-15 STOL/MTD and F-20 Tigershark. Also, any luck on actual shoot down animations rather than just a puff of smoke and nothing else? And will VTOL equipped planes like the Harrier and F-35B ever be able to hover and switch flight models to that of a helicopter?
This game is a blast to play, and it allows you to play a diverse amount of aircraft. However, there a few issues: The first one is shockingly not the micro transactions in this game, its the progression. It takes so long to grind out a high-level aircraft. We recently got the F/A-18E Super Hornet after months of grinding, and starting to grind for a new plane could take months, maybe years. Maybe add in a few bonus XP for gun kills or aerial tricks, so that players will actually go for it. Secondly: the micro transactions. There is a lot of good stuff, but that stuff is locked behind a paywall. We get that the devs worked hard on this game and that they are willing to release some exclusive content, but for the rest, add a little diversity like new maps, limited time aircraft or perhaps new missions. Other than that, this is a really solid game. Most people wont play it for the grindy experience, but that wont stop the fun.
Our idea for an update is to add a weapon/munitions camera so you can view launched mistakes and bombs and see how they get to their target.
Please add the Korean war, we’re so sick of damaging planes with our cannons, but then a bot shooting a missile and stealing our kill. Don’t get us wrong, there are definitely moments where we really needed a wingman or we would’ve been killed. But when doing a fighter sweep we use all our missiles, but when we try to get gun kills, a bot fires a missile and steals our kill. Vietnam is the one time we can use guns, but even then we still sometimes have a bot steal our kill in an era where missiles still sucked. We are an old school person, these missiles are great and all but we love the turn and burn style of dogfights. We miss dogfights legends because we had to start off with the korean war and had only guns to get kills. We’ve been a long time player of this game, having played all 4 versions of the game and have never once had any issues with them. We still love this game, but the kill steals are getting really old.
We’ve been an aviation buff since childhood and we love the attention to detail in this game. Our only suggestion would be to add campaigns which we would happily pay for and takeoffs and landings, or hear us out, UFOs. Because who wouldnt want to chase down aliens in a F-15.
We love this game. Constant updates, many aircraft, many countries, many eras. Hands down one of our favorite mobile games. We think it would be cool if they added Swedish aircraft in the Cold War Europe period, we would love to fly a J-37 or a J-35.
We love this game with fun missions planes and more but we would like to see multiplayer missions so you can play with friends and not computer people. Pls add multiplayer devs :)
Hi your game is really good but we think you should add more aircraft like the ac130 also if you can make able to shoot down heavy bombers and bomb airfields other than that its a really good game keep it up.
Its a great game, but we would say as much that the content pack should include some free credits in with them…
Takes a long time to advance unless you pay a minimum of 4.99 for anything Other than that its ok we’ve played better.
Had seven kills in a single mission and was given a failed mark for the mission. Parameters for success/failure not equitable and not explained. Game also lacks a cloud. Cannot save progress from device to device. A universal cloud that saves progress on both android and Apple devices is missing. Not even a cloud for a single operating system.
This is one the best games we’ve ever played.
Why are there Freaking hight prices for freaking planes?!
We love this game and enjoyed seeing how its evolved. But where is the F-14 Tomcat? Maybe Im not looking hard enough?
Should add and rework them could be a good idea we think.
We really think this is a good game and have played it for about a year now and we really love it, all the combat scenarios and different nations. We do think somethings could be added, like lesser known conflicts, such as the Rhodesian Bush war, the South African Border war, US invasions of Central American countries, Indian-Pakistani wars, and more. We also think some planes should be added to nations already in the game, like the A-29, the Pilatus PC-6, the Hawker Hunter, the AC-130, and more. You could also add transport missions, maybe you have to deliver wounded troops in a Mi-8 to a base or fly a black hawk from area to area while dodging RPGs. We just think those would be some cool additions but we still really love the game and hope you keep adding on to it.
