Overview
Megafortress (also known as Megafortress: Flight Of The Old Dog) is a flight simulation video game developed by Artech Digital Entertainment and released by Three-Sixty Pacific Inc in 1991. The game takes place in the late 1980s and early 1990s and features three distinct sets of missions: Red Flag (USAF) training exercises at Nellis Air Force Base in Nevada, a fictional series of missions during the First Gulf War, and a special mission which reenacts the plot of the novel Flight of the Old Dog.
The player is in command of a crew flying a super modified and experimental B-52 bomber, outfitted with the latest weapons and stealth technology. (In the novel, it was more advanced than the B-1 Excalibur, the Strategic Air Command's most advanced bomber).
The game campaign mostly takes place in Iraq, but there is 1 mission that takes the bomber to the old Soviet Union like in the novel.
