  • Summary: The North American F-86F Sabre was the most capable western fighter of the early- to mid-1950s.

This swept wing, single engine jet was the most important western aircraft of the Korean War and often tangled with Russian-made MiG-15s over the infamous "MiG Alley". It was a hard struggle not only for the Korean sky, but also between two excellent aircraft builders of the East and West. In addition to its primary role as an air-to-air fighter, the Sabre could also carry bombs and air-to-ground rockets to attack ground targets.

    The Eagle Dynamics simulation of the Sabre is by far the most authentic recreation of this famous warbird to date. Feel what is to fly the Sabre with a professional level flight model, an interactive cockpit, fully functional weapons, a detailed damage model and a richly detailed aircraft. Experience the strengths and weaknesses of the Sabre in combat and find out why seasoned fighter pilots often look back at the Sabre as the most enjoyable aircraft they ever flew.    … Expand

    The flight model, sounds and systems are all very convincing. I give it props for that. But as mentioned by CBZ, it lacks content. With thisThe flight model, sounds and systems are all very convincing. I give it props for that. But as mentioned by CBZ, it lacks content. With this module, you get the plane and nothing else. No campaign, no interactive training, just the plane. With that in mind, the plane itself is kind of cool. It is a bit out of place in DCS, given that DCS doesn't have any AI units from before the 1960's. But it does scrape by in a light ground attack role. It will be able to fight the MiG-15 when that's released, but that won't change the lack of period ground units or AI aircraft.

    I would not recommend this plane at $50. However, if you can pick it up for $10 in a flash sale like I did, then I say grab it.    … Expand

    For the regular price (49.99) I don't think it's worth it, especially because you can get other packages such as the Mig 21 which is very comprehensive and comes with a full SP campaign and training tutorials.
    If you are a die hard fan of the Sabre though, you will find that the interior and the exterior are modeled to the high standards that DCS has shown in the past.    … Expand
