The game uses a flight-sim perspective where the player pilots an armed helicopter through mission-based operations. Core controls focus on altitude, speed, hovering, weapon aiming, and target acquisition. Missions usually require reconnaissance, destruction of enemy units, escort support, or extraction-related objectives. Careful positioning is important, since lingering in one spot makes the helicopter an easier target and damage can quickly compromise the mission.

Keep the helicopter stable before rushing into combat, and approach objectives with terrain cover whenever possible. Short attack runs are safer than hovering under fire, especially when enemy anti-air threats are present. Learn each mission’s layout, identify priority targets first, and use brief evasive movements after firing to avoid concentrated retaliation.
