RELEASE NOTES

There was a time when the F-15 Strike Eagle and Falcon games ruled the
flight sim skies; no other titles were really even considered in the
same league. Those days are long gone, though, and just about every
gaming company has been scrambling to create the "ultimate" flight sim,
one that combines the exciting missions and immersiveness found in those
older classics. True, many of these hopefuls have managed to provide
cutting-edge graphics, a realistic flight model, enthralling missions,
or just a plain old exciting gameplay experience, but very few have
actually had all of these elements wrapped up in 1 nice little package.
In the past few years a number of titles have certainly come close, but
the jury's still out on whether or not we've reached the pinnacle of the
true flying and fighting experience. All of that changes with JSF
Joint Strike Fighter is the epitome of a high-tech flight simulator for
one very specific reason -- it models two military aircraft that won't
even be mass produced for at least another 10 years! That's right. In
2010, the Pentagon will begin the mass production of a multi-role jet
fighter that will actually service the needs of three branches of the
U.S. Armed Forces throughout most of the 21st century: the U.S. Air
Force, U.S. Navy, and U.S. Marine Corps. The goal is to create a plane
that can do everything better than it's ever been done b4. Naturally,
each military branch has its own unique requirements, so this is no easy
task. The Marine Corps needs a plane with STOVL (short take-off/vertcial
landing) capability that can replace the AV-8B Harrier; the Navy needs a
stealthy aircraft that can be used for deep-strike missions, and the Air
Force needs an inexpensive fighter to replace the outdated F-16. The
Pentagon's answer is the Joint Strike Fighter program. For the next
several years, two cutting-edge aircraft will compete to be the 21st
Century's ultimate military fighter plane. Boeing's X-32 and Lockheed
Martin's X-35 are as good as they get -- designed with such effective
stealth technology they are invisible to both human eye and electronics;
fully-loaded with the newest, most destructive conventional firepower
known to man; and equipped to access the futuristic "warfighter's
Internet," an online database set to become operational in the year 2008.
Yet ultimately, only one plane will be chosen to fullfil the role of the
United States' ultimate defender. Which aircraft is better? That's for
you to decide ... PARADiGM brings you yet another great title with JSF!
