Description from the packaging.

From the creators of F-15 Strike Eagle and Silent Service!

Climb into the cockpit of the U.S. Army's most advanced helicopter- the AH-64A Apache Gunship. Race low and deadly over the treetops at 200 m.p.h.. Then lock onto your target with Hellfire missiles and 30mm cannon as you deliver a powerful punch against the enemy! They'll retaliate with massive armored force but it's up to you and Gunship to extinguish their threats and survive!

Gunship is another in the excellent line of real-life simulations from Microprose. As part of the brave airborne cavalry of today's modern Army, you, the pilot, will experience all the action, excitement, daring and suspense of attack helicopter combat under the most challenging conditions!

Gunship features include:

• Full simulation of high-speed, low-level helicopter flight.
• Advanced high-tech weapons systems and instrumentation.
• Revolutionary 3-D graphics including all types of terrain.
• Hundreds of exciting missions in combat hotspots around the world.
• Rewards for successful missions including medals and rank promotions.
• Comprehensive Flight Operations Manual and keyboard overlay.

Gunship's outstanding "out-the-cockpit" 3-D graphics put you in the middle of all the action! See what danger lurks ahead using the unique zoom TV camera capabilities of your CRT display. Carefully monitor the cockpit instruments and gauges for the latest flight data.

Critical decisions are required from information provided by maps, stores and damage displays. All Gunship flying maneuverability is based on the real helicopter so you can rotate, hover, sideslip, fly backwards or go into a screaming powerdive; Even try an "autorotation landing" (no engine) like a real pilot!

Your Gunship adventures are varied and intense. The only standard ingredients found in every mission are danger and excitement. To begin a Gunship adventure you must decide how brave you feel today, determine how difficult a mission you are willing to undertake, receive your intelligence briefing and arm your Apache Gunship accordingly. Then it's up to you!

Take an assignment to the jungles of Southeast Asia or Central America to take on third-world guerillas... or out to the Middle East deserts to test your tank busting skills. Upon return, you'll be rewarded with medals and promotions on your way to becoming one of the bravest and greatest Gunship helicopter pilots of all time!

The Gunship is ready for battle... anytime... anyplace. Are you?
