US Navy Fighters is a quality first person flying PC game which was originally available in the mid 1990's. Players are given the option of flying several high performance military aircraft, among them, the F-14 Tomcat of Top Gun fame, the F/A-18 Hornet and the naval version of the F-22, (which never actually panned out). Players are also given the option of flying the SU-33 Flanker, at the time, the latest and greatest combat aircraft in the Russian arsenal. Players can participate in campaign missions or in single missions.
