Air Raid: This Is Not a Drill PC Game

Air Raid: This Is Not a Drill is a simulation of firing a 40mm Bofor AntiAircraft gun from the deck of a battleship as wave after wave of enemy pilots in various aircraft swarm your position. The 99 missions grow progressively more difficult as the enemy attacks with more planes, higher aggression levels, and better maneuverability in defense. In each scenario, players receive a set number of Depth Charges ("KGun" Mark 6 Mod 1), 40mm AA ammunition, and RIM7 missiles to fend off enemy boats, airgunners, airbombers, torpedo bombers, ace fliers, and patrol aircraft.

Ingame documentation includes a listing of the types of targets, each with a profile picture and statistics (power plant, armament, dimensions, performance, and the number of hits by weapon needed for destruction). Weapons and ammunition are rated where appropriate by length, diameter, launch weight, war head, guidance system, propulsion, range, ceiling, maximum elevation, and rate of fire. Ammunition must be managed effectively, as running out will doom the mission to failure.

Atmospheric music from the WWII era begins each mission and a small radar screen helps players track incoming targets. After successful completion of missions, players receive points based on the number of shots taken and accuracy, types of aircraft or boats destroyed, and bullets, missiles and depth charges remaining. Points are awarded for each level, with an accumulative total tracked for the entire game. Based on the number of levels completed, players receive specific medals, ranging from Navy Occupation Service (10 levels) and Navy Expeditionary medals to the Defense Distinguished Service medal, the Navy Cross, and the highest, the Medal of Honor (99 levels). ~ Michael L.
