I am sure technology has a lot to do with why there are so few wingman that you can command. Hardware just can't support everything. I always justify there being so few fighters around by pretending that large groups of the ships aircraft is out doing recon strike and maybe even intercepting...

I think all the wing commander universe aircraft are capable of being based off of a planet. Its just some carry weapons that can only be used in space or some of the characteristics in flight would make in so unstable in an atmosphere that it would be impossible to fly except maybe boosting it...

I am not gonna argue with wing commander cannon cause i know there are a ton of factors that i am sure i can't account for for such small crews but modern day boomers(nuclear missile submarines) like the typhoon support over 100 crew and those ships never ever surface except in port and it has...

number of pilots on carriers I am not saying anyones figures about the number of crew on a carrier are not accurate cause i am sure they are 100% but doesn't that seem like a really small crew for an aircraft carrier only 550!!!!!! I mean modern day carriers have something like 3000-5000...

it wasnt a b-2 it was an f-117 that got shot down. and no they don't fly at very high altitudes because that makes them easier to detect f-117s especially will head tword the target at a very low altitude because even though they are stealth if they get hit with enough radar signals then they...

yeah but the cannons that most third world countries are gonna be using will have been manufactured in russia. besides that the units that shot down the stealth were probobly just blindfiring aaa and shoulder launched missiles cause they heard the plane and got lucky. What really pissed me off...

while i am at it the b-2 is pretty much a waste of money anyways. Radar may not be able to detect one but if some lowely pilot in his mig-21 is flying cap over a target and he happens to visually spot that b-2 well splash one b-2. at least an f-117 has some chance to mauevre away. All the b-2...

thats bullshit i want evidence that a stealth can be detected by a cell phone network

Hey i was reading his biography and it says he was in a disfiguring car wreck can anyone give me the details on this. haha he did voices on johnny bravo that rocks

well even though wingcommander is my favorite gaming universe i could probobly be bought though for the right price. And i don't remember if the box is damaged or not but if i remember right it was but the games at home and i am not there so i can't check it out.

Hey I was cruisin through e-bay and some some huge price tags on some wing commander games. I have a copy of kilrathi saga with some damage to one of the corners of the box but otherwise in awesome condition would there really be that much of a market out there for it or would it be better to...

I dunno i never remember the atf wingman being very good. But i guess after you play games like longbow 2 and a couple of the newer sims the AI of a lot of the older games just doesn't stand out like it used to. The Aegis system of today is actually probobly one of the best systems in the...

you could be right on the the fact that the enemy can't detect the missile since it is using the awacs radar but i think some of it has to do with the type of radar used by the amraam itself. yeah it was you and your wingman against 12+ enemy fighters and your wingman usually sucked. Well no...

well i meant new in the sense that it's only recently come into widespread service. Even in the gulf war it was only used in a few "test" cases. Most of the kills in that war came from sparrow and sidewinder missiles. Surprisingly i think the iraqi's even got an air to air kill with one of...

The new American AIM-120 AMRAAM is essentially the most accurate and sophisticated missile in existance used by any armed forces today. While it is true the missile is a "fire and Forget" missile that doesn't mean it won't get updates to its targeting computer from another source. When most...

The navy is upgrading most of the 688 class attack subs with newer sonor and weapons since that would be less expensive then building a bunch of new seawolf class subs. As it is even the new russian akula class submarines aren't even as good as the first generation 688's and they used...
