Gunship depicts the Western world's finest attack helicopter: The AH-64A Apache. This simulation recreates the weapons, flight systems, and performance of the real machine. You control an arsenal that includes laser-guided Hellfire missles, a 30mm cannon controlled by helmet gunsights, clusters of bombardment rockets--even air-to-air missles for duels with enemy helicopters.

Gunship starts with flight training at a base in the USA. Tutorials teach you to handle the copter; once the controls and flying skills are mastered, there are escalating challenges and hundreds of missions in any one of four regions of the world, including Southeast Asia, Central America, the Middle East, and the USSR and it's Warsaw Pact allies in Western Europe.

Trivia

AH-64 Apache actually CANNOT mount the Sidewinder missile at the wingtips as depicted on the arming screen. The manual explained that it should be quite possible to do so, and there was no other air-to-air missile that Apache can mount at the time.

In the sequel, Gunship 2000, one gets to choose between Sidewinder and the smaller Stinger missiles (in a 2-pack!)
