First, thanks to everyone who replied...it was very informative (and shows me how out-of-date I am since the end of the Cold War
).

I completely believe it. IIRC, Microprose's stealth simulator (which was very good if a bit buggy) supposedly raised a few eyebrows in the Air Force when they saw how realistic the sim was vis-a-vis the then still classified F-117 program.
Microprose was a class act, no doubt about it. They really knew their stuff.
