Trivia
On the Atari ST disc was a backup-program.
You had to wait for the desktop to come on-screen before inserting the disc.
The manual specifically commends to make a backup and play from that disc instead of from the original.
Also, the titlemusic would only load if you had a double-sided discdrive in your ST.

The ZX Spectrum version also came with a tape of the theme song. It was called "Just Another Mission" and it was by Dave Lowe, sung by an anonymous female session singer. Rainbird did the same with Starglider 2, although Lowe's song was in that case an instrumental.
The Atari ST and Amiga versions of the game included a short sampled rendition of Lowe's music as the theme tune. The ZX Spectrum had AY chip music, but due to a bug it was not allowed to play all the way through, and so without downloading it the player cannot hear the full piece.
Like the PC release, the Amiga release also came with a cassette tape featuring the theme song.

The PC release of Carrier Command came with a special bonus, a cassette tape with an extended stereo version of the theme song.
