Raid Over Moscow

Raid Over Moscow is the follow-up to Bruce Carver's excellent Beach Head.

Unlike Beach Head, Raid Over Moscow places you in the cockpit of the world's fastest fighter bomber. You must lead your man on a bombing mission over the main industrial centres of the Soviet Union in an attempt to knock out the computer installations which are guiding a salvo of nuclear warheads across the North Atlantic to targets in Canada and the USA.

You must guide your ship out of the landing bay and fly it through space towards the Soviet capital.

The plane must be flown very low to avoid being detected by the Russian radar network. Jet planes, patrolling tanks and stationary guns all take a put shot at your plane.

Raid Over Moscow scores highly on graphics and playability. The game is much more difficult and challenging to play than Beach Head, and will certainly take a lot to master.
