Cheat mode
Enter "SHPONGLE" as a name to unlock all aircraft
and levels. Note: The effects of the code will be disabled if
the game is saved.
Use the following trick to get aircraft and be able to save the
game. Enable the "Cheat mode" code. Go directly to the
final mission of Era 3. Complete it and you will get several aircraft.
After the game starts over, insert a memory card and save the
game. It will save the aircraft that you won.
Hints
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.
F-4 Phantom
Successfully complete the game under any difficulty
setting. The F-4 is a decent fighter with a good firepower rating.
JSF
Get at least a "Bronze" rank for every Academy
and Warzone challenge. The JSF's cannon, though a bit on the low
side, seems like it damages enemies more.
YF-23
Get at least a "Silver" rank for every Academy
and Warzone challenge. The YF-23's cannon fires very fast, and
it is highly maneuverable. Overall, it is a very decent fighter.
V-22
Get a "Gold" rank on all Academy and Warzone
challenges. Though its firepower rating seems like it would only
send out one shot every five seconds, it actually has twin machine
guns that fire as fast as an enemy helicopter or gunboat. It also
has unlimited-use afterburning fuel, and can stop almost completely
if the brakes are applied. It is not very fast, however, even
with the afterburners activated.
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.
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.
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.
Turning
For easier turning upwards if you are about to crash,
use your throttle to speed up and pull up to get out faster and
for bonus points.
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).
