If IFA turns out to be half as good of a flightsim as this one, it will still be among the best. Janes simulations broke away from their normal more unrealistic format of making sims and built this masterpieces. When you look at some of these screenshots, its hard to believe they aren't real! Along with the incredible graphics, the flight model is incredibly rendered, ranking among the hi-fidelity flight model in Falcon. Unfortunately, without a 3D card or a super supped-up computer, graphics set on high run sluggish, but without much tweaking, they can run as fast as Falcons.

Feel the intensity of raw speed
F-15's groundbreaking flight model is based on data the US Air force itself uses to model aircraft characteristics. Hug the ground at mach 1 or scream above the clouds at 50,000 feet. You'll feel every G with the F-15's ground breaking flight model.
Total cockpit immersion
Innovative point-and-click instrumentation and user-definable multi purpose displays provide a seamless cockpit interface. Maintain optimal situation awareness with F-15's free-panning, 3-D virtual cockpit or jump into the back seat and neutralize targets from the weapons officer's seat.
Incredible Technology
F-15's breakthrough graphics engine delivers lightning fast performance on a broad range of PCs. Witness amazingly realistic visual effects including true dynamic lighting and shading, real shadows, swarms of glowing tracer fire, dissipating smoke trails, translucent clouds, crisp night vision, meticulously detailed objects, and geographically accurate, jaw-dropping terrain.
Up and flying in 5 minutes
Instant action mode includes simplified controls to ensure quick access to your first kill. Simple, yet effective training missions get you flying and fighting right away. Adjustable realism and difficulty levels provide gameplay balance for all players.
Unparalleled Combat Realism
F-15 includes mid-air refueling, smart bomb camera views, real-world F-15E squadrons, intense radio chatter, stellar AI, and more than 50 accurate weapons systems. This is the level of immersion you can expect from Andy Hollis' Jane's development team, winners of every major Flight Sim of the Year honor for the past two years running.
Become a fighter pilot
Relive Desert Storm through an intense campaign based on actual events and sorties flown in the Gulf War. If that's not enough, jump into a hypothetical campaign set over the mountains of Iran. Attack and patrol in a highly accurate 3D world comprising over 3 million square miles of geographically accurate terrain. Select and fly with one of 12 actual USAF F-15E squadrons on active duty. Pick from one of the squadron planes to call 'your own' but be careful... At $35 million a pop, there are no replacements.
Wage your own war
Compete with other players in head-to-head multi-player battles over the Internet, modem, network or direct serial connections. Design your own missions with F-15's powerful mission builder, the exact same tool used by the game designers in creating F-15's campaigns and missions. Trade missions with your friends (even by email) and download exciting new battles from the Janes Combat Simulations website.
