BAE Systems Hawk
Sim notesBae Hawk Mk.66 ( odd choice, as the Mk.66 is the version used by the Swiss Air Force) | MiGMan thanks Rob "Bomber" Henderson for these notes.

Boeing B-52 Stratofortress
Sim notesBoeing B-52H Stratofortress ( you could carry 100 Mk82 slicks in the bomb bay plus extra on pylons under the wings! ) | MiGMan thanks Rob "Bomber" Henderson for these notes.
Ac notesStarting this beast up and watching the Engine indicators - count them! - come to life is fun. Landing it is even more fun!

Lockheed C-130 Hercules

Lockheed F-104 Starfighter
Sim notesLockheed F-104S Starfighter ( what a cracker - this one was GOOD! ) | MiGMan thanks Rob "Bomber" Henderson for these notes.
Flyable
Ac notesS models feature upgraded engines and avionics making them truly all weather fighters and the last production models. The leading edges of the F-104 wings were so sharp the ground crew had to exercise special care not to be cut when working near them!

Lockheed F-117 Nighthawk Stealth
Sim notesLockheed F-117A ( another overkill on the bomb bay capacity - 16 Mk82's! You also had the option of underwing pylons for Paveway LGB's. However, using just the internal stores, you were stealthy, and the enemy had real trouble getting missiles to track you properly...) | MiGMan thanks Rob "Bomber" Henderson for these notes.

Ac notesLike many flight sim fans, my love affair with the Wobbly Goblin began in 1988 with F-19 Stealth Fighter on my Atari ST.

McDonnell / McDonnell Douglas F/A-18 Hornet
Sim notesMcDONNELL DOUGLAS F/A-18A HORNET ( I think this one could carry just about everything in the inventory ) | MiGMan thanks Rob "Bomber" Henderson for these notes.
Flyable
Ac notesThe Hornet was conceived from the word go as a dual-role aircraft, hence the designation F/A-18, which means Fighter-Attack. It was meant to supplement the role of the F-14 Tomcat, providing shorter range Air defense and to totally replace the A-7 Corsair and A-6 Intruder.
