Missiles and early guided weapons are available late in the game, but are unreliable and players will have to rely on their trusty machine guns. Players will engage in dogfights with enemy planes and undertake search and destroy missions involving ground targets. The setting is the 1960s, a primitive but rapidly changing period. Strike Fighters: Project 1 is a combat flight simulation game featuring the famous and versatile McDonnell Douglas F-4 Phantom II.
