With the new stability of the Falcon 4.0 simulation, VNFAWING adds a third online squadron to fly this new exciting simulation. VNFA-1,VNFA-2, and VNFA-3 all now have seperate squadron pages with seperate roster pages. The VNT-1 Site is expanded to a 5th tripod site to allow it to grow to (VNT-1) support training for Falcon 4.0. Though not a naval sim, Falcon 4.0 does offer unparalled realism and thus has caught the eye of many of the VNFAWING Airwing pilots. |
