A Closer Look at the Add-Ons

1. Super Pro 9.4

First of all, Super Pro 9.4 (SP 9.4) which is the sequel of SP 9.2 reveals the power and potential of a dedicated and creative flight sim fan. It has countless imaginative features that can hardly be fully described through a review but I’ll take a shot at trying.

The SP 9.4 add-on (983MB in size) contains more than 1000 brilliantly designed missions, 500 planes and helicopters from 33 countries (almost all flyable), 100 both imaginative and realistic campaigns that take you to the four corners of the world and different eras of history, hundreds of weapons, and a wide variety of superb skins. In this add-on you will also have the chance to enjoy dozens of ground units and even ‘use’ some of them!

But it’s not mainly the numbers that take your breath away, it is mostly the numerous aspects of the quality improvements rather than the quantity ones that make you drool!

Ever wanted to be able to take part in a dogfight where you can make the bandit ‘bug out’ without shooting him down or make him join you and escort him outside your territory? Maybe drop badly needed cargo for allied forces or paratroops? Take off from aircraft carriers and protect the fleet and then land on them? Surely you’d love to take a stab at STOVL missions with the Harrier, the F-35 or the V-22. Fly commercial jets and try to keep on schedule? Sink not only ships with your naval plane but also sink submarines? I wonder if you’d like to fly recon missions and UCAVs or fly the SR-71 at Mach 3? I am sure you’d love to escort Air Force One. Perhaps fly rescue missions for downed pilots or hijacked airliners? Or just maybe you feel like using all the latest high-tech weapons, including nuclear ones, and see for yourself the devastating results of nukes with a nuclear mushroom effect! Fly carpet bombing missions with B-52s or B-1s? Care to fly various helicopters from all over the world in an assortment of missions? Finally, have you ever wondered what it’s like to fly in various weather conditions or experience what the Red Flag missions are like?
