F‑19 Stealth Fighter is a classic combat flight simulator originally developed by MicroProse and released in 1988 for PC DOS — now re‑released digitally for Windows platforms via services like Steam and GOG. It puts you in the cockpit of a fictional stealth fighter during Cold War‑era missions across four major regions, including Libya, the Persian Gulf, Central Europe, and the North Cape. The game was ahead of its time for its era, blending tactical dogfighting, terrain navigation, and stealth mechanics as players balance radar avoidance with mission objectives. It offers multiple camera views such as TactiVue, SlotVue, and TrakCam that help visualize combat and landscape from dynamic perspectives. Stealth flying isn’t just a feature — it’s the core of the challenge, rewarding careful altitude, speed, and radar signature management. Though rooted in retro simulation, the re‑release preserves the original’s depth, hundreds of historically inspired missions, and tactical weapon systems that make it both a nostalgia trip and a strategic flying experience.
