hey everyone.
how many of you out there would like to see regular* military trafic (*as in not having to download it)  going in and out of military bases?

wouldn't that be cool. for instance...mabey red flag F-16's, 15's, 22's, A-10's on the flightline at Nellis AFB then have some take off to the nellis range.

or mabey some B-52's at minot AFB, or Test aircraft like UCAV's and X-Planes at Edwards AFB, or the airshow at Oshkosh.

hey mabey even the Blue Angels at Pensicola NAS...
wouln't that be cool?

You brought up a great point, the answer that I would give you, as only my "opionion" is it wont happen. If you mean real excat millitary flightplans etc. The reason is, information to that extent is normally kept classified, times, location, aircraft so on. If the flightplans are not to the exact mentioned and not realistic then it could happen, you can find freeware files and also put togther your own, not that they might not be real to what you might see at your local AFB. Their will

That would be good, but I often get the feeling that with FS9, military is a dirty word. :-/

Flight Simulator from it's conception has always been a civil flight simulator. They probably won't include it, but if they did, hey, cool. There's literally hundreds of military AI packages out there that suit me just fine.

If you want military AI, then you can always go to www.projectai.com

You get them for free, installation is easy, and all AI traffic from the site is frame-rate friendly.

The problem with military AI is the fact that the military bases don't have parking spaces.  I've found that the bases need to have military parking for the planes.

The problems with having military planes in FS is that if they're there then people will want to be able to fire off guns and missiles and it would become a combat flight simulator instead of just a flight simulator.

Why? Surely a common World Sim platform (for ships/trains/cars as well as planes) is a worthy goal? And once that world is realistically modelled (read trade-off between accuracy and frame rates), and the physics of movement through that world realistically modelled (microlight, motorbike, 747 or speedboat) this common sim-world platform can be used to host any nature of sim; rally, train sim, flight, combat...

What's the problem with FSX with guns anyway?
