Air Conflicts: Vietnam

Vietnam is a turning point in the Air Conflicts series, with jets and helicopters replacing the WW2-era aircraft of previous games. Unfortunately the new flight model comes with simplified controls and smallish maps, so Air Conflicts: Vietnam is not quite the definitive Vietnam War arcade flight sim it could have been. It is however not short on aircraft models or game modes, including a story-driven campaign, skirmish mode, and LAN & online multiplayer. A distinctive feature, squadron management lets you "jump" and take control of any unit under your command at any time.
