New old FALCON Series?

Great (typed sarcastically)! Because we all know that everything Razbam touches becomes a smashing success.

The teaser in detail. However, notice the odd artifacting? Yeah, they AI generated this. A teaser. C’mon, dudes. RB is capable of better than that. Why did the intake turn into a canopy? Where’d the stab go?

The ad they’re calling back to:

What a bummer.

Who in their right mind wants to touch RB with a stick? Especially since they haemorrhaged all their coding talent after the mudhen fiasco.

I’d say those are not Sidewinders… The shape is wrong and the front control winglets aren’t there.
Could it be those ACMI recording devices?

ACMI pods dont have rear fins, and 2 is overkill.

The Falcon 4 one has AIM-9L/Ms. The falcon 5 one looks like a poor attempt to replace the L/Ms with Xs.

Did they? I knew Smiley and Galinette left, but I still assumed they had SOME coders?

It also seems a little early to be posting teasers like this when we, still, know so little about the end product.

True. Though their track record right now wont help them attract/retain competent people. If I’m faced with an employer who’s CEO keeps stirring up conflicts instead of trying to get his employees paid, I’d haul my behind somewhere else in a heartbeat.

Classic RAZBAM. They kept posting shots of the Mudhen pit years before they were making significant progress.

Believe it or not, the Strike Fighter series is still around. Interestingly, it doesn’t receive much traffic compared to other sims like DCS or BMS. I think TK’s shift to mobile gaming took away focus from developing the sim on PC. Also, I believe Third Wire never opted for a major publisher. If you visit the website, it is rather minimalistic and looks like it was designed for a high school web design assignment (my opinion), but see for yourself: Third Wire Productions - Home

Anyway, the sim is still available but doesn’t seem to have much of a following in the PC market. As a sim lite, it is rather fun and benefits from mods like Desert Storm. I still have it installed and have jumped in on occasion.

LOL, Razbam s#i77ing the bed even before being acknowledged as a developer is just peak Razbam.

Way to go pal. Speedrunning the “burning all bridges” whether behind, in front, or by the side, a few miles off- no bridge is being left unburned…

Will be interesting to see what comes of this now
So is razbam involved or are they looking to do aftermarket planes like the ED model

Definitely not involved in core development, as MicroProse said- any of it.

Modules as planes- probably.
But after this stunt, who knows what sort of limits will MP put on RB plans.
