I fail to see why anybody would want to fly a dumbed down (buggy) military jet in MSFS when there is a whole world of Study Simulators available in a reasonable good quality flying environment already available in DCS

With Carrier Landings and Takeoffs they very few have mastered

Totally agree. Yes - of course (with DCS or similar) there'd be a massive learning curve, but there are simpler online military sims out there that you can get into quite quickly: Rise of Flight, War Thunder etc.

I thought of DCS but not sure if I have the stomach to learn a new flight sim. The same reason I never went to X-Plane. 😞

You can go as far as you want, you don't need to master everything (nor buy everything). Just those you are willing to learn and use. I find flying one of those birds much more rewarding in a combat flight sim then in a civil one.

Clickbait using the -14 as the thumbnail yet using the -15 to fly over NYC...

Where do you see the thumbnail say 14?  It says 1.5 mach. And it's 15.

The thumbnail is definitely a 14, look at the wings and intakes

 32GB DDR4 3200Mhz  i7-9700K  RTX 3060  12GB GDDR6

Yup.that's certainly a f14, you can see the shrouds over the wing for the swing wing capability

Yup, if that thumbnail is an F-15 then my name is Maverick. Or Goose. Or Iceman.

Well, if you guys say so, then it is. I will let the creator know he put a wrong name on a F14.
