User Reviews

Strike Fighters is praised for its depth and breadth: a large roster of planes, missions, and weapons with solid historical realism and accessible play. However, reviews repeatedly flag issues: persistent IAP problems (lost purchases, disappeared stores, broken restore), post-update stability and compatibility bugs (crashes and crashes on newer iOS devices), and monetization frustrations (ads). They also demand more content and better controls (more helicopters and eras, carrier takeoff/landing, controller support, longer mission time). Some note paid features being removed after updates. Overall, strong concept hampered by stability and monetization challenges.
Pros
  • Extensive content: large roster of planes, missions and weapons with solid historical realism.
  • Accessible and easy to pick up, yet with depth for longer campaigns.
  • High production quality and overall modern combat sim experience.
Cons
  • IAP problems and restoration failures (lost purchases, stores disappearing, restore button removed).
  • Ads appearing in the bottom UI and other monetization frustrations.
  • Stability and compatibility issues after updates (crashes, won't launch on newer iOS/devices).
  • Requests for more content and better controls (more helicopters, more eras, carrier takeoff/landing, controller support).
  • Paid features removed or changed after updates (removal of paid packs/contents).
Recent reviews
All and all, this is by far in my experience the best, most challenging air to air and air to ground combat game I have ever played. Several things I would like to have changed would be: 1: I realized the most recent updates in the year 2026 seemed to have removed the USA Navy F18TX fighter. Aside from the F15EX Eagles, the F18TX was another awesome U.S. fighter I liked. Even if the U.S. in real life may have cancelled the project of the F18TX, I would still like to have it back in this game if possible? 2. One (somewhat) annoying issue is that while you can look at both the friendly and enemy aircraft when in “Pause” mode, there has been nothing get a good look at ground targets, except through the “Image Infrared” camera. If there could be a way to change that, that would be great?
