intresting plane designs too, its like it was to be set in another universe where the planes we know today were designed to look cool for no aparent reason lol

That F-1415 Tomeagle looks awesome. And the Flanker with 3!!!?? engines, cooool.

But the weird warthog with afterburners is pretty dumb. They designed the tailplane into the engine pods??? lol The whole point of the A10's engine pods are that they are separate from the plane so if one is blown up the plane can still fly back, and it has extra "ear" air intakes for some reason. And two Avenger gattling guns? OVERKILL!!

THQ only produce crap. This could have been good so no wonder they cancelled it.

Lol, I can imagine the conversation now:
"Guys, this game will be the hit of the YEAR!"
"Yeeeah, about that, it's a little overqualified for our tastes."
"But...but, aren't you guys supposed to sell good video games?"
"You're new to this company, eh?"

Shame it got cancelled. The trailer was a little movie all in itself.

Well done THQ, you did it again

Kinda cool, the "Bears" were a little weird. And what's with the Harrier/Tornado jet? That kinda threw me. Kinda cool though to see it just suddenly appear through some buildings (as in it seemed to have taken off on some street )

yea the harrier thing did look super cool and the warthog just looked plane wrong lol
the assets have been released ? what does that mean ? we might see those planes in another title maybe ?

also about the warthog after it drops its payload and pulls off it drops a series of flares ?? ive seen them do that before in videos why do they do it ?? is it incase there are sam launchers around ?

Yes when u pull up after a drop like that your slower so your an easy target if somebody launches a heat seaker at you.
