But arguably less interesting, at least from a combat air power perspective. If you want to simulate a realistic peer or near peer conflict then the only way to do this is with older units and historical scenarios, as the documentation is simply not available to accurately model the latest airframes, systems and weapons. 2 Laptop Pilot.

There's also the fact that while making a map set in the 50s would be nice, we didn't exactly have satellites taking high resolution pictures back then, and you can't tell much from the few pictures that were taken. On top of that, photos of the various locations are hard to come by as they exist in peoples photo albums and drawers. We just have more information about locations that exist now, then we did just 30yrs ago, let alone 50-70yrs.
