A multi-player aerial combat simulation. Players engage in air to air
combat against one another using heat seeking missiles and cannons.
.
Main features include:
* Simulation with 6 degrees of freedom.
* Tricycle and bicycle landing gear simulation.
* Structural limit to the vertical positive/negative load.
* Standard atmosphere.
* Weather: daylight/night, fog, wind.
* Classic instruments, including magnetic compass, turn and slip
indicator, airspeed indicator, attitude and bank indicator,
altitude indicator, vertical speed indicator.
* Navigation: HSI with RNAV calculator, ADF.
* Head-up display (HUD) and inertial reference system.
* Auto-pilots: hold altitude, hold climb rate, hold speed, follow VOR
radial, follow ILS glide path, rudder/ailerons coordination.
* Several aircraft models implemented, both civil and military.
* Two sceneries provided: Dallas area (Texas) and Italy area with
hundreds of runways and radio stations.
.
acm runs under the X window system. This version of acm is
implemented as a distributed simulation. It communicates information
via the IEEE Distributed Interactive Simulation protocol.
.
The original version of acm was written by Riley Rainey. This is
Umberto Salsi's updated version.
