Description
Wing War is a 3D flight and combat simulation game featuring both aircraft and helicopters.
In the game the player can choose between a Dogfight and Expert mode. In Dogfight the player fights another aircraft during attack time or has to evade attacks from the other aircraft in guard time. Both modes last for a certain amount of time and are alternating. In Expert mode the player has full control over the plane or helicopter and needs to use the throttle lever and control sticks to maneuver. Weapons include a machinegun and missiles. Besides an automatic perspective the player may select a top, rear and cockpit perspective. Aircrafts and helicopters included are: Fokker Dr-1, Zero, Mustang, Lightning, Apache, Werewolf, Harrier and YAK_141.
