Fleet Defender was a flight simulation published by Microprose in 1994. It features the F-14 Tomcat and does so more accurately than any flight simulation or arcade game ever produced.[citation needed]
Its distant cousin is Jane's F/A-18, which reuses a lot of work completed in Jane's F-15 by ex-Microprose employee Andy Hollis.
Fleet Defender was one of the last flight simulations produced exclusively for DOS & Windows 3.1. It was playable in Windows 95 and Windows 98, but only if the user exited Windows and played in DOS-mode. Recently, Fleet Defender and many other DOS-based games have seen increased popularity due to creation of DOSBox, a DOS emulator capable of running in Windows XP.
