Описание:
U.N. Squadron — это горизонтальный шутер, выпущенный в 1990 году компанией Capcom. Действие игры разворачивается на фоне политических потрясений на Ближнем Востоке. Игроки управляют наемниками из отряда U.N. Squadron, которые должны остановить коррумпированный альянс торговцев оружием, угрожающий мировому миру.
Игроки могут выбрать одного из трех пилотов, каждый из которых управляет уникальным самолетом с особыми способностями. Микки Саймон управляет F-14 Tomcat, превосходным в воздушных боях. Грег Гейтс летает на A-10, специализируясь на наземных атаках, а Син Казама управляет универсальным F-20 Tiger Shark, эффективным как в воздухе, так и на земле.
В игре предусмотрена покупка оружия и улучшений в магазине боеприпасов за деньги, заработанные во время миссий. Игроки должны стратегически выбирать оружие, такое как 16-Way Shot, ракеты Bulpup и Напалм, чтобы повысить свои боевые возможности.
Боевая задача требует от игроков навигации по враждебной среде, уничтожая вражеские силы для заработка денег и усилений. В конце каждого уровня игроки сталкиваются с мощными боссами, что делает стратегическое использование оружия ключевым для успеха.

UN SQUADRON
-----------
SCENARIO
--------
For many years, the countries of the Middle East have been in
a state of economic and social ruin due to violent civil war.
While the rest of the world demanded an end to the bloodshed,
evil arms dealers had little trouble infiltrating each
country's volatile government with false promises of wealth
and power. Now united, and with revolutionary new weapons,
this corrupt alliance could dash all hopes for world peace in
an instant.
The only obstacle between harmony and anarchy is UN
Squadron,a multi-national force, flying the latest aerial
fire power.

After selecting your pilot, you will be taken to the
munitions store where you can buy special weapons, shields or
extra energy.
Depending on the amount of money you have, you may be able to
buy one of two special weapons per level. (The storeman will
give you information on each weapon as you highlight it.)
The weapons that may appear are as follows:-
WEAPONS
-------
16-WAY SHOT:
Launches missiles in 16 directions (ST & AMIGA only).
BULPUP:
This launches missiles in a wide range.
BULPUP II:
A more powerful version of Bulpup.
GUN POD:
Shoots continually at the ground for a limited time (not
Spectrum & Amstrad).
SUPER SHELL:
A strong piercing weapon.
NAPALM:
It burns the ground.
ROUND LASER:

To buy the weapon of your choice, move the cursor over the

COMBAT

hostile and potentially deadly" so destroy as much as
possible. Each destruction will be rewarded with cash which
can be exchanged for special weapons in the stores at the
beginning of each new level. Though your aircraft can with
stand several direct hits, avoid incoming enemy ifre if you
can. Destroying some squadrons of jets and ground based
vehicles, may release a power globe that, if collected in
quantity, will increase the effectiveness of your main
weapon. At the end of each level one of the arms dealers'
special weapons will appear.
HINT: Try to keep your special weapon in reserve until this
point as it's going to take everything you've got to destroy
these nightmares of modern warfare.
