Eagle Leader is a solitaire air tactical game which depicts NATO's air war in a series of hypothetical Cold War Gone Hot scenarios. The game covers the late Cold War, from 1976 (the introduction year of the Eagle) to 1991, with featured aircraft including the F-15C Eagle, the F-15E Strike Eagle, the F-111 Aardvark, the EF-111 Raven, and the F-16 Viper. Eagle Leader focuses on force packaging-- the selection of the right aircraft and the right munitions will make the difference between success and failure for your squadron. You will be asked to make decisions that NATO Air Planners would've had to consider in the real world. This game adds new aspects to the Leader series such as electronic warfare aircraft, US and NATO-specific skills, and an expanded ""Squadron Operations"" module for Leader players looking for the most detailed experience.
