How to Play Top Gun: The Second Mission
Quick start
Use SELECT to choose the main one-player mission and press START. Select a missile type with Up/Down and confirm with A. Once airborne, steer with the Control Pad and hold B to fire the cannon. When the lock-on arrow appears, double-tap B to launch a missile. Hold A to accelerate and release it to slow down. On the carrier approach, align the aircraft and match the displayed speed using A to accelerate and B to brake.
Controls
Control Pad: steer. In combat, hold A to accelerate and release it to slow down. Hold B for cannon fire; double-tap B after a target lock to launch a missile. Double-tap Left or Right for a barrel roll; some terrain and obstacle sections disable this manoeuvre. SELECT chooses menu entries and START begins the selected mode. Choose missiles with Up/Down and A. In MODE, Left/Right selects NORMAL or REVERSE and SELECT toggles music. During landing, steer into position, accelerate with A and apply the air brakes with B to match the indicated speed.
Top Gun: The Second Mission — About this game
Top Gun: The Second Mission puts you in an F-14 cockpit for air combat built around aiming and speed control. The main campaign sends you against submarines, bombers and other targets, with forest, lightning and laser hazards changing the challenge. Choose between three missile types before departure, use the cannon for sustained fire and wait for a lock before launching a missile. Returning to the carrier means lining up and matching the indicated landing speed to refuel and rearm. Separate modes offer duels against computer pilots and split-screen competition with a friend. NORMAL and REVERSE flight settings let you choose the vertical control response.
