Destroy Tanks, Vans And Most Moving Ground Targets
Use the afterburners when you are close to the
ground. Note: This will not work on BTROs or
gunboats (it will just do damage).
Flying
As the missions gain in complexity, every fly
over must be highly efficient. Instead of tight
sweeping turns, use over-the-top turns. This can
cut a 10 second turn down to 3 seconds and place
you in a better attack mode to start the next
run. This requires practice.
Weapons
While speed in completing missions, extent of
damage to your jet, and "First Blood" bonuses
help, they will never allow you to gain the
points and medals to open new jets. The key to
points is ammunition choice. Try to use only guns
for everything, saving all the missiles and bombs
possible. If you must use missiles, use the self
aimed, not the guided. The more bombs and
missiles you return with, the higher the scores.
By doing this it is possible to advance from the
normal 300,000 to 400,000 red star success to
consistent scores of over 2 million per mission.
Anti-aircraft Guns
Flying close to the ground causes the anti-
aircraft guns to overshoot your plane. They
cannot fire below a certain point due to the risk
of hitting their own men.
Aircraft
On all levels that contain multiple aircraft
bogies, the best solution is to wipe out all
aircraft by flying low to the ground, then
pulling up on the stick to get a missile lock to
destroy them. Take one bogie out at a time, then
fly back close to the ground and start the
process all over again.
