Allied Force is a standalone game.
And yes, it's got a learning curve that's not necessarily steep, but it is very long. I started out learning how to fire Mavericks, then moved on to this, then that, then this... I've still not uncovered a third of the game's features. The F-16 is one complex plane.
Rest assured, though, you don't need to know much to play the game. Knowing how to fly and shoot, and understanding the workings of the radars will do it for you. But being able to sit down and decide that 'OK, today I want to learn something new', and then flipping through the several hundred pages long manual for something to pick up is something I've never experienced so far into a game before, and it's truly amazing.
