  2. There are many flight simulators (computers) on the market that get real close to the exact cockpit of several jet fighters. My favorite is the A-10. Its as close as I am ever going to fly one.

  3. I prefer an old fashioned steam driven panel. Needle, ball and airspeed.

    2. Understandable. And the ADI and HSI on this ship has the appearance of the Bendix style analog instrument, though it could be a high resolution photo of a glass version.

  4. None of this modern military stuff is just jump in easy peasy. The Ukrainians managed to rip a Leopard turret out of a tank during training collision. And put pictures of it on the web. You can see the tank track imprints on the decapitated unit. Prolly damaged the barrel of the other one. https://us-browse.startpage.com/av/anon-image?piurl=https%3A%2F%2Feurasiantimes.com%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2023%2F04%2FLeopard-2-1.jpg&sp=1681947020T2f966b17e675a4c597cbaf1b580f82e345b03b422ba2f1b370f2e7cc9ccd8be9
