This is a scrolling shoot-'em-up featuring a carrier-borne fighter which takes off and moves left to right across a heavily defended landscape to reach an enemy base. Having bombed the base, you can return to your ship (the display wraps around) to make another attack run.
While over water, you will encounter two patrol boats which shoot guided missiles at you, as do enemy aircraft which fly in the opposite direction to you. Land-based installations will throw up flak at you but this is not usually fatal.
Gauges indicate your fuel, speed, rocket and bomb status and the bombs are what you use to take out the base. With rockets you need to be careful since flying into the explosions they leave damages your plane.
Good News
P. Reasonable scrolling shoot-'em-up once you've learnt to dodge missiles.
P. Skill needed to shoot things.
