Even hacked open, this sim is not moddable like those others sims -- I assume no new maps or aircraft are possible for example, although never underestimate what could happen over time.
The most important use for the current hack derived modding may be deep customization of the sim for each customer, not exactly "modding."
As for StrikeFighters, the sim is closed to independent 3rd Party dynamic campaign engine creators. Even master Lowengrin can only make a campagin editor. As aircraft/object modding and independent campaign engine creation to be of equal importance, stock FB which allows Lowengrin's campaign mods and SF which allows aircraft mods are both partially open sims.
