@TheCinesthetic Still.. I didn't like it when Naked Gun veteran WEIRD AL YANKOVIC got reduced to a post-credit cameo instead of being part of the main story cameo.
@PhlyDaily Too bad that similar game "Stormbirds" (2009 PS3, XBox) were cancelled by THQ because they thought it was " too risky". I like their aircraft semi-fictonal design like A-10 with dual GAU-8, F-15 with Tomcat swing-wing or Sukhoi with triple engine.

#Marines with 2nd Marine Aircraft Wing take part in a sundown ceremony for the AV-8B Harrier II at Marine Corps Air Station Cherry Point, North Carolina.
The “sundown” of the AV-8B Harrier II, an iconic aircraft that has supported joint and Marine Corps operations for over 40 years, also represents the dawn of a new era; it paves the way for 2nd MAW’s full transition to the F-35B and C Lightning II.
VMA-223 is the U.S. Marine Corps' last operational Harrier squadron.
