Hey, Ido, that's not exactly correct.
Fighterops will _NOT_ use the flightmodel of X-Plane, just the scenery 
engine (and maybe some other engines I'm not aware of). The flightmodel 
will be done by the fighterops dev themselves.

Here's the public statement:
<snip>
G2interactive will not be using the X-Plane flight model as the G2I Team 
has developed their own Flight Model which is better suited to high 
performance military combat aircraft. This new capability will empower 
Fighter Ops to be visually leaps and bounds ahead of any competition 
thanks to a completely custom built Terrain Engine and Dedicated Custom 
High Resolution graphics. These features are not only visually accurate 
but are also location accurate within 1 meter resolution and in many 
“High Value Areas”, even better.

The Teaming Agreement between Laminar Research and G2interactive is sure 
to produce a unique combat flying environment and an new level of 
immersion for the simulation pilot. With bold new features like 
Multi-Monitor Support, Complete Electrical, Hydraulic, Pneumatic and 
Mechanical Monitoring & Failures, Real Weather Support, Spherical World 
Modeling (no more flat flying areas), Over 22,000 Airports with their 
correct VOR & ILS modeling, Realistic ATC, Ground, Tower, Departure, 
Center, FAC, etc…and much more.
