The obvious questions:

1)Didn't recognzie that fighter, will the game have real fighters or all fictitious ones?

It looked like a Eurofighter Typhoon.



Please excuse the slightly large image.

The poster who suggested a Rafale is correct:
EDIT: Got the pictures smaller, but the poster below got in the evidence first

I confirm it's a french Dassault Rafale. Look at the intakes position and at the vertical stab as well as the cockpit area and the wings position. That's a Rafale for sure.
I'm a lot into aviation; the Rafale is one of my tops.


EDIT:
@zterrans: Grilled XD
And maybe you should look at reducing your image size?

EDIT 2: Ah, ok you saw it. Thanks for solving it

By the way, the intakes are shaped differently too, and the nose and cockpit of the two seem different (I can't explain that one, but the Rafale sort of reminds me of the front of an F-16 for the first few feet)

Why is there an American flying a European jet?

I got a bad taste in my mouth already...

Maybe it's European Enforcers Corps (see EndWar) that's supporting the Ghosts?
Nothing tells us it's american, except for the Firehawk logo which we aren't even sure it is...

Will we ever see a realism of Flight simulator, in Tom Clancy branded games?

Does anyone remember this? http://www.mondoxbox.com/immagini.php?view=1&id=34589

This is the previously announced Tom Clancy's Air Combat getting a new name. GRAW-like HUD and cockpit camera.

Meh, looks like GRAW expansion pack. recycled graphics and Interface.

And I found the Trailer pretty funny, I mean, He drops a smart bomb which turns into a rocket all of a sudden?

and who does fly that fast below the building level?

Why do you assume it is a "smart bomb"? There are a lot of rocket propelled ordenance that disengage from the plane before firing the engine up.

But you couldn't buy it seperate for some reason. Haven't checked in a while, maybe you can now. It would suck if you had to buy a whole new flight stick for HAWX if you already had the AC6 one.

I looked for it, but it's hard to find it new other than Ebay. Then they usually want too much for it.

Because the pilot is dropping unit-27 from what I see. It's a smart bomb

More about rafale.


And since when did ground troops talk to air force units? I thought the order comes throught the command.

2. if anything, i bet it'll be a fusion between Ace Combat and Bazing Angels (btw, the same devs behind Blazing Angels are making Tom Cancy H.A.W.X)

Urgh. Blazing Angels' control scheme.

There hasn't been a good flight sim or aerial combat game since Crimson Skies. I'm hoping that this game is the end all in the genre.

I hope to see some gameplay footage at E3.....hint..hint.

Looks promising.

Still doesn't make sense. Why is a French plane, being flown by what sounds like an all-American golden boy?

Ubi is moving their franchise from what used to be the realm of realistic possibilities to fantasy junk stories. The plausibility of the earlier Clancy Games along with the more realistic game play is what attracted me to them. (Exception being the co-op campaign story in GRAW2 if you separate it from the Mexico bullocks).

As long as Ubi is going to move towards Sci-Fi, there are other titles that I would rather play in that genera.
