F-15: Prima's Official Strategy Guide to

Amazon.com ReviewWhile Flight Simulator fans continue to wait for Microprose's much-heralded and oft-delayed Falcon 4.0, Jane's Combat Simulations continues to pump out impressive simulations. The latest is Jane's F-15, an amazing jet combat simulator with top-notch graphics and realism. Prima's guide to the game is a bit different than most strategy guides. There are no walk-throughs for a simulator, since missions tend to unfold very differently each time you play them. Instead, the book offers up a heaping helping of information on how to effectively handle your aircraft, your wingmen, and the many, many weapons at your disposal. The guide provides maps and strategies for each mission type, which should prove valuable over the course of the game's lengthy campaigns. Tons of graphs, charts, and tables give you the lowdown on the F-15's capabilities--as well as every other aircraft in the game. The book even contains an 80-page excerpt from the U.S. Air Force's Multi-Command Manual 3-3, a training document read by every real-world F-15 pilot. --Michael RyanIntelligence files on enemy equipment and vehiclesHistory and profile of the F-15E; excerpts from actual F-15E manualsPlaytester tips and multiplayer combat strategiesIn-depth analysis of mission tacticsOverall strategies for each phase of the campaignsReviewThe definitive jet combat simulator.
