Delve
into the darkness and challenges of the Vietnam War in the
brand new epic title Whirlwind Over Vietnam. As a helicopter
pilot your missions will take you through the toughest and
most dangerous campaigns of the Ia Drang Valley, 1965.
The
War in Vietnam has become one of the most significant political
events of the sixties. After World War II military technologies
started developing quickly. One of the most noticeable changes
was the all-round usage of military helicopters. Even now,
after 40 years, the image of a Huey helicopter is one of the
most typical associations with the War in Vietnam and almost
every movie dedicated to this topic features these machines.
Whirlwind Over Vietnam is a helicopter sim that depicts the
most famous episodes of the war in a movie-style way. The
main events of the game are well-known to the audience due
to famous books and movies dedicated to the War such as We
Were Soldiers, Apocalypse Now, Hamburger Hill and many others.
The game features all the major weapons and military equipment
of that period, both air and land - from firearms, grenade
launchers and artillery to planes and vehicles on either side
of the conflict. And of course, the main focus is on helicopters.
The game will contain all major American helicopters with
modifications for both US Army and Marine Corps. The game
is flexible and has a lot of settings which allow varied flight
behavior for the helicopter from realistic to arcade. This
makes the game interesting for both hardcore gamers and casual
players.
