| history | Carrier Air Wing (c) 1990 Capcom. A solid and hugely playable sequel to 1989's superb sideways scrolling shoot-em-up, "U.N. Squadron". As with the original, players chose any one of 3 different jet fighters and battle their way through ten enemy-packed stages. Another idea carried over from "U.N. Squadron" is the end-of-level shop, which allows players to buy weapon and shield upgrades for their jet fighter. - TECHNICAL - Capcom Play System hardware (CPS) Game ID : CP-S No. 12 Main CPU : 68000 (@ 10 Mhz) Sound CPU : Z80 (@ 3.579545 Mhz) Sound Chips : YM2151 (@ 3.579545 Mhz), OKI6295 (@ 7.576 Khz) Screen orientation : Horizontal Video resolution : 384 x 224 pixels Screen refresh : 60.00 Hz Palette colors : 4096 Players : 2 Control : 8-way joystick Buttons : 2 - TRIVIA - Released in October 1990. This game is known in Japan as "U.S. Navy". Pony Canyon / Scitron released a limited-edition soundtrack album for this game (Street Fighter II : G.S.M. Capcom 4 - PCCB-00056) on 21/03/1991. - UPDATES - The guy who looks like Sean Connery looks even more like Sean Connery in the Japanese version of the game ("U.S. Navy") than in the American version (Carrier Air Wing). The US version is slightly different, it has the "Winners Don't Use Drugs" screen. - TIPS AND TRICKS - * Real Ending : beat the game in one credit. * Secret items : Mission 2 : White Mech (10,000 pts) - After the large helicopter and when the suspended road finished, go up quickly and shoot.
