Combat Flight Simulator 3 Battle for Europe (PC)

Combat Flight Simulator 3: Battle for Europe PC (English)

Anti-aircraft fire blankets you. Blast debris hurls toward your propeller. And you wonder why you didn't join the Navy. This ain't no free-flight, cloud-gunner, glory ride. This is ground assault: the real, gritty combat that can make or break a battle, and take your life in one massive explosion. Bombs shatter enemy airfields, trains, tank columns and more as you streak across the European countryside in WWII's greatest planes, dodging small-arms fire, gripping your joystick with sweaty palms and white-knuckles, pumped with adrenaline, living history.

As a US Army Air Force, Royal Air Force, or Luftwaffe pilot in Microsoft Combat Flight Simulator 3 you fly in the historical framework of the tactical air war in northwest Europe starting in mid-1943, but there's a significant difference. The skill and perseverance you and your squadron or Staffel bring to each battle can alter the tactical situation and the timeline of the campaign. This open-ended and flexible campaign means you can influence events, alter history, and extend the timeline to add new technology to your arsenal. How you handle these tactical and technological advantages will determine the outcome.

Role playing elements: pilots have qualities such as Bombing Skill, Vision, and Health. Strategy: you make decisions that influence how the war is fought, where to put the pressure on the enemy, and what aircraft improvements are crucial to the war effort.
