All that DLC is fully-modelled aircraft where basically every switch in the cockpit is modelled and does something. The F-16 just released so I wouldn't recommend buying it just yet. You can get FC3 aircraft which is like 9 non-fully-simulated aircraft for $60 which is a good starting point. Other than that the SU-25T is free and it's a whole lot of fun, I flew it for dozens of hours before deciding to buy some other craft. Eagle Dynamics also puts a lot of those modules on sale semi-frequently.

I like flying the A-10C a whole bunch. The F-14 also supports two players in one plane (pilot and RIO) which is fun with buddies. You can also fly it by yourself with an AI RIO.
War Thunder sucks, I have no interest in it.
