Desert Strike — About this game
Pilot an Apache across an isometric battlefield, destroying assigned targets and lifting survivors to safety. Fuel, armor and three kinds of ammunition limit how long you can remain in combat. The map identifies objectives and supply locations, while mission order shapes a safer route. Hover carefully for the automatic winch and carry rescued personnel back before pushing deeper into hostile territory.
