----------- Tip 1:
------
When flying a mission that doesn't have a time limit,
periodically return to your home air base or carrier
to repair damage and reload weapons. Both are rarely
more than a few minutes away, and this can be the key
to surviving and completing many of the game's tougher
missions. Tip 2:
------
The game will allow you to lock up ground targets with
air-to-air missiles and vice versa, so feel free to
improvise with whatever you've got the most of. Tip 3
-----
The best way to spoof incoming missiles is to dial your
radar down to its minimum range so that you can see its
inbound red icon more closely; then yank and bank abruptly
just before a missile hits while pumping out plenty of
chaff and flares (or better yet, turn on auto chaff/
flares at the options menu).
