Thanks a lot for all your posts in response.
I certainly want to honour the work done by the devs of BMS. It’s surely the best F4 ever.
I was not even aware of the existance of L-16, but I only had the intuition that with today’s technology a lot more could be done in things of aircraft and ground detection that the ones you see in the F16. I imagine that developers are afraid of simple solutions: L-16 may be a system hard to implement when it comes to all details, but IMO for a simulator, what counts is the result, that is: the Magic Eye. Even more afraid ?! We have all seen it before, in Total Air War, in EF-2000, these are flight simulations not so serious than BMS, but as for the results, they may come close.
My first Aircraft simulation also was a Microprose product: F19 Stealth Fighter. I don’t want to expand here if this is a serious approach to learning about an aircraft or not, just saying: the Magic Eye in the sim was not an impeachment for learning more about aircraft warfare, radar systems, missile defenses and other.
