With all due respect to HomeFries and Ice, F4AF is much simplified campared to BMS. Aside from data cardrige and radio there are more complex weapon deliveries mechanics (HARM modes, AGM-65 power up time, or GBU's with new sniper targeting pod for example). Not to mention you have to own original F4 to run BMS. Still F4AF is nice place to start your adventure with the Falcon if you can bare the obsolete graphics engine that is wink.
