Mh, well, the gun is nifty, but the darn thing lacks a hyperdrive. 
That said, I'd probably KILL for a shark mouth decal on the miliary craft in Evochron. Regulations, schmegulations...the Alliance military lacks style!

The individual has always had to struggle to keep from being overwhelmed by the tribe.
If you try it, you will be lonely often, and sometimes frightened. But no price is too high to pay for the privilege of owning yourself.

How ironic. The A-10 came into service about the same time as the F-15 and nobody wanted to be shuttled off to an A-10 assignment ... until they actually flew the plane.-

I been bouncing between LOMAC 2 and BLackshark. One neat feature is the multiplayer is compatible between the two games. So it figures the A-10C will be also.

That startup sequence reminds me of why some simulators might be too much game for me. I like some realism, and I especially like the fact that you can choose a level of realism based on your abilities.
I can also see that if it takes you 10 minutes just to start the thing, you'll be a whole lot more careful about getting yourself virtually KIA. Probably trains pilots to be cautious.

Yeah that startup sequence is extreme, I dumbed it down. FYI the manuals are 400 + page long. It's 6DOF (TrackIR) is wicked though.
I think the next game is based off the Apache, though most people are hoping for Harrier.
