Chuck Yeager's Air Combat (CYAC) F-4 vs 2x Mig-21

A small dogfight in which I go in a F-4 against 2 Mig-21 in the game Chuck Yeager Air Combat.

Chuck Yeager's Air Combat was a air combat simulator released in 1991 by Electronic Arts. It was developed with insight from veteran Chuck Yeager.

The game features three distinct campaigns set in World War 2, Vietnam and Korea. The appropriate aircraft for each the theater are represented. Throughout the game players are tasked with different mission types: scouting, escorting, dogfighting and target neutralization.

On the technical side, the game boasts advanced flight models (for 1991), three dimensional clouds, good aircraft models and very realistic and functional cockpits for each plane.

You suck. I would have nailed them both within the first minute.

Ok, let's see that video response then.

This game was the bomb for its time. I loved it. It was the only game I played constantly along with Wing Commander and Birds of Prey EA.

Interestingly I bought the Wing Commander games off of GOG some time ago, and recently played through 1 and 2. They're great games and I can appreciate the effort and vision put into them. I definitely recommend people to check them out.

@mattc941

You're welcome ;).

@mattc941 Yes, this game certainly had a great personality. From the simulation, those little touches and the manual filled with flight material as well as stories from Chuck himself, this game was pretty awesome.

[mattc941]

Chuck would always talk smack if you crashed, ie.... 'you really bought the farm on that one!'

Not bad for '91!! :D

Couldn't watch with that Emergency Broadcast System Alarm going off through the whole thing.

Had the game and I loved it.
