Looks like the kind of air traffic on Sins Of A Solar Empire, probably what Ironclad modeled theirs after - the real deal. Pretty cool.

I kept thinking of swarms. I've heard a bit about swarm theory, but not enough to speak intelligently about it.

Wow that is so cool.
It's like a load of little insects or maggots.
Most of the air traffic seems to be in west europe and the USA.
