Armed Air Forces - Jet Fighter in IOS

Flight simulator of PC quality

Walkthrough, Guilds, Tips on this special game

Our Site Score

77/100

Armed Air Forces Jet Fighter offers a surprisingly deep flight simulation experience for a mobile device. It manages to find a 'sweet spot' between a hardcore PC simulator and a simplified arcade flyer. The cockpit detail is impressive, and the sense of speed when you're skimming the terrain in an F-35 or an A-10 is exhilarating.

The mission variety is a high point, ranging from simple carrier landings to complex air-to-ground strikes. The flight model feels believable; you have to account for stall speeds and G-forces during tight maneuvers. While the graphics aren't quite console-level, the lighting and aircraft models are high-quality, making it one of the better flight sims currently available on the App Store.

Dinsun Review

Dinsun here. I’ve been a flight sim fan since the early Microsoft Flight Simulator days, so I appreciate what this game is trying to do. It’s not just an arcade shooter; there’s a genuine attempt at flight modeling and systems management here. Flying the jets feels weighty and responsive, and the carrier landings are appropriately stressful. The mission editor is a nice touch for those of us who like to craft our own challenges.

However, the user interface is a mess. It feels like a desktop application ported to mobile without enough thought for touch-screen ergonomics. The buttons are tiny and the menus are labyrinthine. Visually, the cockpits are great, but the ground textures and environmental detail outside of the planes are fairly sparse. It’s a good simulator for those who have the patience to fight the UI, but it doesn't quite reach the level of polish seen in top-tier mobile simulators. It's a 'hard' game for serious enthusiasts, which I like, but it needs a better wrapper.
