F-18 Thunder Strike — About this game
Begin with Arcade to learn cockpit movement and weapons before managing every procedure. In Simulator, read the objective, acquire a target on radar and compare its heading and altitude with yours. Keep the aircraft controlled while making small changes rather than moving pitch and thrust blindly.
