- According to the Chips and Bits salesperson, there will be two F15III
- versions released: I believe the difference is this photo book. I've
- seen different listings for F15III and F15III Limited Edition which
- seems to confirm this.
-
- On a different matter:
- Nobody has commented much on realism. Are guns and missiles as
- super-effective as in F15II, F19, F117A, etc? Ditto for your
- countermeasures? Are enemy planes still bozos? Do you score 6-12
- kills per mission?
-
- Keep the info coming!
