Life Immitates Strike Commander

From a CNN article:

Stealth jet may get fresh coat of paint

HOLLOMAN AIR FORCE BASE, New Mexico (Reuters) -- The F-117A fighter jet, the radar-eluding stealth plane known for its angular design and charcoal black color, may be getting a makeover in a new shade of gray.

The U.S. Air Force has painted one of its stealth fighters at Holloman Air Force Base in Albuquerque, New Mexico to see if the plane called the Nighthawk might be harder to spot when it flies during daylight hours in a color other than black.

Can the breakdown of the US into smaller warring nation states be far behind?!

(Strike Commander's Tactical Ops addon features stealth fighters with a much-derided "gray with green spots" paint scheme).

I really liked that game too

Reminds me of Crimson Skies

Lots of Strike Commander talk going around here lately, it seems.
Anyway, if anyone's interested, I've got quite a few mp3 recordings of the game's original MT-32 soundtrack up on my website. You're welcome to it, but bear in mind bandwidth is limited...

 

[Bandit LOAF]

Oh, wow, it had an MT-32 soundtrack? I'll have to give the game another look with my LAPC-I.

You bet! and IMHO, it's far better than the General MIDI soundtrack. Nenad Vugrinec is a genius, and that's a fact!

Hey, thanks for those mp3s, they are very cool.

Hehe, speaking of which, when are you planning to send in the rendered Privateer MIDIs?

 

[Mad Hatter]

I actually did send them - about a week ago. I sent you the 'You're dead' theme by mail, and I recorded several other themes and uploaded them to the CIC's ftp. Kris hasn't had a chance to update, I guess. I sent him a message as well.
Maybe something's wrong with my email...

I got around to adding them this afternoon. There will be a news update tomorrow or somewhen, but the music section is already updated.
