Third level boss tip
Sent in by Imrik
On the 3rd level, the one with all the bombers. There is a way to beat the
Boss without getting hurt, it would help to clear some of the many bombers
but if you don't have time, you will get a little hurt. First get to the highest
elevation you can and when your above the boss on your radar dive down and
fire missiles and your gun, if you do it correctly he doesn't shoot back until
you get close. Keep doing this until he dies.

Hidden AAA
Sent in by Code Hunter
When you start out in the cave, you start to go down. At the bottom there is a
big open area. You have to get low and do half a loop, then twist yourself so
you're not upside down. You might have to point the nose down a little and then
you should see a grate. Fly through it without hitting it and you should see a
little hole. Fly in it and your inside like a machine. Also before you go in
the grate you can pull up and go to where you started. Fly out of the cave and
there is AAA waiting you to blast you out of the sky!

Padlock View
When in Trail or Cockpit View, tap the button on the control pad. Padlock will
lock onto targets in the following order:
1. Nearest Enemy Fighter
2. Enemy Boss
3. Enemy Support Vehicle
4. Friendly Boss
5. Nearest Friendly Fighter
Press right on the Control Pad to lock onto the Nearest Enemy Fighter, left to
lock onto the nearest Enemy Support Vehicle and top to lock onto the Enemy Boss.
When dogfighting another plane, Padlock the target and turn hard for position.
When you're pointing at the target, engage Trail or Cockpit View for more
precise gunsight tracking.
Culbit and Cobra
Pull a dramatic ÔCulbit,' or backflip, in the ultra-aerodynamic SU-35, FS-X
or X-29. Tap the Control Stick back and press the Down C Button. Tap the
Control Stick down again and tap the Up C Button. Hold the stick back and
you'll flip.
If you release the Control Stick after the second tap, you'll drop and slow
dramatically. This move, called a ÔCobra,' is a great way to shake an enemy
breathing down your neck. Once you master the Cobra, try firing on the
aircraft chasing you.
Don't try either move near the ground, or it could be your last!
Rudder Reversal
Make a fast turn in a slow aircraft, such as the F-14B, by lifting your
nose at least 30 degrees, engaging your air brakes and tapping the Left
or Right C button twice. With this move, you'll be skating the razor-edge
of your craft's controllability. Once you commit to a Rudder Reversal,
though, follow it through to the end!
Bosses
Sent in by Code Hunter
Tokyo (Super Walker X)
1. Take out the four escort fighters.
2. Take out the Super Walker X's escorting helicopters.
3. Attack Super Walker X by dive-bombing it. Stay above 600
feet to avoid some of Super Walker X's weapons. Try saving
the Special Weapons for the boss.
4. The meter in the upper right hand corner will go down when it
is being damaged.
Alternate Method: If the time limit runs out, the Metropolitan Building
will turn into a super weapon and defeat Super Walker X automatically.
Pacific Ocean (Leviathan)
1. Take out the four escort fighters.
2. Attack Leviathan by dive-bombing it. Stay above 400 feet
to avoid some of Leviathan's weapons. Try saving the Special
Weapons for the boss.
3. Halfway through the attack, Leviathan will appear to sink. It's just
submerging. When it surfaces, helicopters
will be escorting it. Take them out.
4. Continue dive-bombing Leviathan until it is destroyed.
Note: If you score more than 1,700,000 points on this level,
you will go to Air Landing Bonus Stage.
Air Landing (Bonus Stage)
This mission is easy. There are green lines that extend out
from an opening in Goliath. The opening can be hard to see.
Get the aircraft within all four lines and slow it down. Note: The
default button for the air brake is C Down.
Getting to this stage: You have to have a total of 1,700,000
points when you complete the Pacific Ocean to get to this
bonus stage. To do this, shoot down the fighters and helicopters as
quickly as possible in Tokyo. Then attack and take out Super Walker X
as quickly as possible to maximize the time bonus.
In the Pacific Ocean, shoot down all aircraft as quickly as
possible. Attack the frigates to protect your wingmen. The
subs are mostly harmless. Finally, focus your attacks on Leviathan.
The objective is to get all three wingmen to survive.
Note: If Air Landing and Shuttle Defense stages are completed, then
the Goliath Defense Bonus Stage will open after the Fortress is destroyed.
Air Battle (Spriggan)
1. Take out the four escort fighters.
2. Take out the three B-2s that are directly behind Spriggan.
3. Get behind Spriggan and fly as slowly as possible. Shoot
directly at the two engines. Try saving the Special Weapons
for the boss.
Note: Some people find it easier to ram Spriggan than trying
to speed up and make another pass at it.
Monument Valley (Bazeel)
1. Take out the four Escort Fighters.
2. Take out the small tanks next to Bazeel. There are a lot
of tanks in this level, but the only ones that matter are
the ones that are near Bazeel.
3. Dive-bomb Bazeel. Stay above 600 feet to avoid some of
Bazeel's weapons.
- Or-
Get directly behind Bazeel and very low to the ground. Its
armor seems to be weaker from the rear.

Note: If Bazeel is destroyed before you reach 1,400 seconds
total game time, you will go to the Shuttle Defense Bonus
Stage.
Shuttle Defense (Bonus Stage)
Description: In the middle of the desert, you must defend
the Space Shuttle from attacking tanks and helicopters. You
will not have the support of your wingman.
Time: You have to protect the shuttle for 300 seconds.
The quicker you can destroy the enemy units, the more points
you can score. The meter in the upper left will let you know
if the shuttle is being damaged.
Getting to this stage: You have to have completed all the
previous stages in less than 1,400 seconds (23.33 minutes)
total game time. To reach this goal, you must practice taking out
targets quickly.
Note: If the Air Landing and Shuttle Defense stages are completed,
then the Goliath Defense Bonus Stage will open up after the Fortress
is destroyed
Fortress
1. Take out the enemy fighters.
2. Take out the four force-field generators as quickly as
possible. This will allow the wingmen to hit targets in the
main valley. The generators are near the four corners of the
mission area.
3. Take out the defenses in the valley, but don't focus too
much on the defenses immediately around the main building.
When most of the defenses have been destroyed, the Fortress
super weapon will become active.
4. Try saving the Special Weapons for the Fortress. Continue
attacking it until it is destroyed.
Goliath Defense (Bonus Stage)
Down the helicopters as quickly as possible to score extra
points. Practice making all shots count.
Getting to this stage: To get to this bonus stage, both Shuttle
Defense and Air Landing Bonus Stages have to be completed.
Note: If you complete the Goliath Defense stage, you can access
the Space Bonus Stage after defeating LAR in the Ice
Cave
Antarctic Ocean
1. This is a simple dogfight stage. The more practice you
have had dogfighting, the easier this stage will be.
2. Since there isn't a boss in this stage, feel free to use
the aircraft's Special Weapons on the fighters.
3. There are three alien craft hanging out here. Defeating
them is not needed to finish the level, but taking out one
or two will improve your chances of survival.
Ice Cave (LAR)
1. Follow the left-hand wall of the cave to find LAR.
2. Don't waste much time on the little enemies in the cave.
If you get them on the first pass, great. If not, leave them
alone. They won't bother you later.
3. Save the Special Weapons for the boss.
4. LAR's weak spot is marked by a red box on the aircraft's
HUD. Shoot it mercilessly.
Note: If all previous bonus stages (Air Landing, Shuttle Defense
and Goliath Defense) have been completed, a final bonus stage,
Space, will open up.
Space (Pandora)
1. Take out escorting alien craft.
2. Save the Special Weapons for the boss.
