[Difficulties]
For the first time, there are following difficulty modes.
VERY EASY, EASY, NORMAL, HARD
If you clear all missions by HARD, "EXPERT" mode will appear.
Then "ACE" mode will appear by clearing all missions by "EXPERT" mode.
These hidden difficulty modes will not appear by clearing "VERY EASY",
"EASY" and "NORMAL".
The "ACE" mode is so difficult. The tracing ability of enemy missile is
high. And if you get one missile, you die.
And even if you return to your base for supply during a mission, the damage
of your plane will not be maintained. Only bullets and missiles are supplied.
[After clearing missions]
You get "FREE MISSION", "SP.CONTINUE", "TRIAL MISSION", "MUSIC PLAYER"
and "SCENE VIEWER" for any difficulty modes.
[How to get new missions in "TRIAL MISSION"?]
Clear the previous trial mission with <S>,<A> or <B> rank.

"X-02" is a fictional fighter. Although the MAX SPEED is not so high,
the engine power is so strong. Therefore, it is suitable for time attack
where you need quick dash.
[How to get "X-02"]
You should do the following two conditions.
(a) Clear story missions of "NORMAL" or more difficult modes twice.
Never forget to start the second story missions by "SP.CONTINUE".
(b) At least once, clear all story missions with <S> rank.
Note that;
Even if you clear first story missions with all <S> rank, X-02 won't
appear in the second story missions.
It appears just after you started third story missions by "SP.CONTINUE".
If you get all <S> rank in "NORMAL" mode, normal color X-02 is
available. If you get all <S> rank in "HARD" mode, normal color and
special color X-02 are available. If you get all <S> rank in "EXPERT"
or "ACE" mode, normal color, special color and ERUSIA color X-02 are available.
[How to get different color aircrafts]
(a) With proceeding missions, new aircrafts with normal color are available.
(b) Just after clearing all missions, aircrafts with special color are
available.
(c) By shooting down special named enemy aircrafts in mission, ERUSIA color
aircrafts are available. For the first play, they won't appear in
missions. After ckearing all missions they will appear in the next
missions of "SP.CONTINUE".
To get ERUSIA color aircrafts, there is no need to use story missions
except F-4E. Free missions are useful for that purpose.
The ERUSIA color F-4E is available just after clearing all missions once.
ERUSIA color aircrafts are very expensive to buy.
The method to get X-02 is completely different. To get X-02, read the
previous section.
[How to get ERUSIA color SU-37 ?]
The method to get the ERUSIA color SU-37 is different from the method to get
other ERUSIA color aircrafts.
After getting ALL other ERUSIA color aircrafts except X-02, it becomes
available. It is the coloring of "YELLOW 13" !
[Where are the named enemy aircrafts?]
For the first play, they won't appear in missions. After ckearing all missions
they will appear in the next missions of "SP.CONTINUE".
Generally, these named enemy aircrafts fly alone far from main battle field.
Furthermore, these aircrafts are not visible by radar from far away .
By fly near them, they appear in your radar.
Fly edge part of map, and search them carefully!

[How to shoot down YELLOW team aircrafts ?]
You can not shoot down the YELLOW team fighters which appear in missions 05
and 08, even if you hit many missiles against them.
[I can not clear last mission!!!!]
Listen to the briefing carefully.
[How to get <S> rank ?]
Get high points ! To do so;
(a) For the mission that has ground targets and air targets, punish ground
targets firstly and quickly! Since the battle with enemy aircrafts is
time consuming, ignore them for the first half of that mission.
(b) For the mission that does not have ground targets, shoot down red targets
firstly, which have higher points.
To shooting down enemy fighters, QAAM is so effective.
(c) For mission04, shoot down radar jamming aircrafts firstly.
(d) For mission12, firstly destroy a radar jamming facility placed at the
center of the STONEHENGE.
(e) For the mission18, never forget to destoroy four missiles which appears
just after destroying 3 generators.
(f) Try again and again. To get <S> rank for "ACE" mode missions 08,09,16 is
very difficult. But possible.
If you are not able to get <S> rank, this reason is "your poor skill".
If you tried only 5 trial for example, never say "I can not get <S>.
Please tell me the method to get <S> !".
Try that mission again and again, in order to cultivate your skill to
control your aircraft QUICKLY and CORRECTLY.
[Enemy aircrafts at high altitude]
The following enemy aircrafts fly with high speed at high altitude.
Shoot down to get score.
mission08: SR-71
mission14: XB-70
mission16: SR-71 southwest of the map
[Tell me the speech in aircraft selection of the last mission!]]
--------------------------------------------------------------
Good morning troops.
I have an important announcement.
In one hour, each one of you will take part
in the most important mission in our history.
A mission that will result in a defeat of the vile enemy,
who has brought chaos to our continent.
Although we are from different nations and of different
races, we have fought, suffered, and died together.
Fighting for what you believe in.
Fighting for freedom.
Today we should gather for the final battle, to liberate our
beautiful continent, and restore freedom to our people, our
friends and our families.
Our victory will herald the beginning of the new era of
prosperity for the Usean continent.
Victory will be ours.
We shall return peace to our people.
We will win back our freedom and our future.
The skies belong to everyone.
Now, let us take back our shattered skies!

Though I could not catch several words, Tim Bingham helped me to complete
the above full speech document.
I would like to express my thanks to him for his help.

All these time & score are ACE mode with normal contorol.
This list does not mean that best score and best time are acommplished
simultaniously.
I often receive questions;
"Are your best times TRUE?" or "Your best times are too fast !!!".
On my times and my scores, there is no lie !
If you tried only 20 or 30 trial for example, never say rude words: "I can
not believe your best times because I can not achieve such a fast times.".
