Actually saw this at the USAF Museum in Dayton. Much of it was good, but it seems as if the real Red Flag just isn't exciting enough... So, they had to "Hollywood" it up. But they must have only had enough money for one armored column to blow up. I especially like one of the "pilot's view" low level flight shots where the plane is clearly nose down, yet the "HUD" is showing a climb. Oops. I’ll agree with Andy.

They may have done a nice job describing red flag, but the combat sequences were animated or staged so poorly that I expected to hear Mav and Goose calling in. Oh, that was so painful to watch.
