The C-130 entered service with the U.S. in 1956, followed by Australia and many other nations. During its years of service, the Hercules has participated in numerous military, civilian and humanitarian aid operations.
To play with this massive plane is pretty challenging since is not that maneuverable and fast as a fighter jet but it’s a good change for those days when you need a more relax fly.

One of the many games I discovered when I came back to flight simulation was Strike Fighters 2 by Thirdwire. For me it’s a perfect simulation game in terms of balance. Does not require a NASA built PC to run, it’s not so complicated to learn and yet not too arcade to play.
Besides being a pretty old game, it still holds a decent number of fans around the globe and, the best of all a dedicated community of that improves the game in many ways keeping the game very alive despite the years and the huge competitions of more modern a realistic flight simulator out there.
Here I’m testing one Add-On created by the Strike Fighters 2 community: The F-15A Eagle, one of my favorite combat jets. Since I set the game on random time, I got to fly one of the hardest kinds of mission: the night fly. A really good setting to test this beast of a jet.
