Re: Jets & Planes but no UAV's here.
On the contrary..... the base code for this was SP2 which was the "modern" game............ that is, unless you only count "modern" as being after 1996.

Re: Jets & Planes but no UAV's here.
Then I shall proceed with Patch Post #1 for the 2012/2013 campaign.  Well after the holidays and a game or two, I know those AI Chinese are plotting against my Thai troops!
Regards,
Pat

To be fair by 1996 the impact and ubiquitousness of JDAMs was yet to be appreciated. PGMs have gone from being a specialized weapon to be the standard attack munition.

Re: Jets & Planes but no UAV's here.
The UK is concerned about the future of the F-35. Originally plans were for the UK to purchase the F-35B, however, with the longer delays in that part of the program to include a 2yr probation on the project imposed by the Pentagon last summer, the UK has now opted for the F-35C version for the new Queen Elisabeth Class carriers now under construction. And to an earlier question asked the current per unit cost stands at ~113 million dollars. Article is taken from the "DID" site.

I don't think it unreasonable for background to post this companion article on the carriers.

A change of pace or distraction seems to be in order about now!?!

First production F-35B's delivered to USMC.
Marine Corps student pilots will probably start flying the Lightning II around August 2012.
