FirePower for Microsoft Combat Flight Simulator 3, immerses the player in realistic air combat like never before in over 50 missions.

Experience revolutionary, explosive, special effects. Witness towering explosive blasts, aircraft being torn in half, and smoke drifting thousands of feet above the battlefields. Shrapnel will fly, tanks will blow, and guns will shred their targets to pieces.

The airplanes, their flight models and the weapon effects were built with the input from over thirty real Warbird pilots, authentic military test data and real world combat footage. Under the hood, you will find every aircraft, building, and vehicle reacting precisely as they did when you unleash all of the newly designed weapons. Specific targets will require specific weapons, just like the real thing.

FirePower is so real you may find all you ever do is attack anything that has the misfortune of crossing your sights.
