A simple question, but this thing may be confusing to new players: are you sure it’s the Falcon 4.0 version by Microprose, and NOT the Falcon 4.0: Allied Force by Lead Pursuit?

Why don’t you ask them via e-mail?
If you have got it from GOG, take a look to this nice guide: https://www.benchmarksims.org/forum/showthread.php?27533-GoG-Falcon4-to-BMS-for-Dummies&highlight=gog+download

Which version have you bought - Steam or GOG? Are you familiar with these platforms?
On Steam, download the Steam client, log to your account, select Falcon 4.0 on the games list and click Install.
On GOG, go to Account > Library, select Falcon GOLD, and in the Game Goodies (not in Game Downloads) you’ll find Falcon 4.0 as a simple .exe installer.
In either case, installing the game should be enough, you do not have to run or configure it, as Falcon BMS is completely standalone install, and only checks if the original 4.0 is installed.

From here http://retroism.com/falcon-4-0/ ?
I don’t know how their site operates exactly, but it says “Activates on Steam” in upper-right corner, so I assume you should receive activation code (or other instructions) in email, the one you provide before check-out. If you received such code, install Steam, click “Add Game” in lower-left corner, and enter the code. Then proceed like in my previous post.
