That's the grand-daddy to the UI-4053, XB-0, Aigaion,Kottos,Gyges, Glephnir and the two Arsenal Birds "Liberty" and "Justice".

This game is so great because many of us wanted to be pilots but never made it because of poor eyesight, heart problems, poor grades, unwillingness to join the military etc. I personally don't want to surrender my freedom in exchange for the chance to pilot an eagle for few years. You can't fly jets to 30 years in the air force. If you could, every 30 years the whole crop of pilots would retire and it would cripple the air force's fighting power. Instead they keep sending older pilots to a desk and bringing in young ones. The correct balance is 50% veterans and 50% new recruits. Thus at no time will the air force experience a mass retirement of pilots a year before a war. Instead the air force experiences a balanced, staggered retirement rate. These people study everything, they know things. To whom it may concern, my 3 favorite aviation art books are : - Aviation Art by Lou Drendel - Warbirds by Adam Tooby - Great Fighter Jets of the Galaxy 1 by Tim Gibson

There's a way to cheese this fight. This giant fortress plane has a blind spot, right behind it and a little higher. Rockets and turrets will miss you. For extra safety be on the exact distance to shoot rockets, also for accuracy use first person view because it shows your speed. I managed to destroy all 4 engines in 2 minutes. P.S. Played on hard and used F-22 (Stealth)

I've always thought the Secret Weapons Over Normandy developers were fans of this game - notice how the final act of SWON features a giant airbourne fortress too ;)

[@andrewmontgomery5621]

That was a Luft 46 project called the Daimler Benz Project C which was a giant carrier plane which deploys Heinkel He-1078A jets armed with X-4 Air to air missiles.

This game was released in 1995 for PlayStation, based on the arcade game released couple years prior in 1993.
