i bought the TU-22 Blinder when it first came out.
quick review:
- beautiful model (especially if you pair it with Yago's photoreal skin)
- challenging flight model (tho no idea how accurate it is)
- cosy office; VC is ok, but looks cartoonish compared to today's photoreal VCs. Only a tiny portion of the buttons are functional however. No deep engine procedures or anything...
- zero fps impact
- pretty simple operations. Just click start and fly. There are no deep simulations of any kind
- some neat animations, such as the cockpit seat dropping down
- pretty pricey. I think i paid $32.00 USD for it when it first came out; maybe it's cheaper now?
over all, it's a fun model to look at and buzz around in. But again, it's too simple for my taste and i've removed from the harddrive.
However, if you want a soviet bomber, this TU-22 is fun...
