    I. Overview/General Information
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

The purpose of this guide is to list and describe each individual aircraft
found in the American version of Airforce Delta Storm.

I do not own, nor have I ever owned, the Japanese version of this game. So, I
do not feel responsible for listing the planes that appear exlusively in that
game.

Here is some general information:

    II. Recent Updates
-----------------------------------------------------------------------


Wed, Jul 22 2009: Version FINAL
                  Updated contact info


Tue, Oct. 08: I have completed the main layout for this document, and
              I'm hoping to send it in sometime soon. I will be sure to
              add plenty more to this as time progresses.



-----------------------------------------------------------------------
    III. Quick Code
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

I made this section to explain the feature that allows for easier access on
this page. I found this while browsing online and I think it is a great way to
find certain things much more easily.

The process is simple. I coded each and every plane on this guide, and all you
have to do is find the two-letter code in the index, press Ctrl + F, and input
the code in the box, along with the # sign. The Find feature will locate the
code that you typed in, and bring you to the desired section.

Since many of the codes are the first two letters of the plane's name, you may
be able to find it without looking in the Table of Contents. But, more times
than not, you will probably need to use it. Here is the code for the Table of
Contents if you want to try it out: TA

Hopefully, you understand how this works. Please e-mail me and tell me if any
of the codes aren't working, or they bring you to a different part of the
document. I haven�t been able to test each and every one yet, so don�t be
completely shocked if you find that a few don�t work.


-----------------------------------------------------------------------
    III. Aircraft Guide
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

For each airplane, I will first give a description of it, and then show it's
stats in the game. Since some of the planes are exclusive to this game, I will
use the "Basic Info" section to describe what the plane looks like.

I have taken some of the descriptions from the instruction manual (for
conveniency), and I made ASCII charts to show the stats of each plane as
closely as possible to the game. Since each statistic is based on a 4-point
scale, there are 16 possibilites for them (1/4, 2/4, 3/4, 4/4, 5/4, 6/4, 7/4,
8/4, 9/4, 10/4, 11/4, 12/4, 13/4, 14/4, 15/4, 16,4). So basically, there are 16
points on which a statistic meter could fall on, and I tried to match them with
each individual meter in the game. As you can see, this wasn't something I did
in five minutes; this took quite a while to record each and every one.

Remember, I plan on constantly updating this document, so don't be shocked if
you see something that isn't filled in; I'll get to it eventually. I finally
replaced my Xbox after having it broken for about a month, so I'll try to
complete this as soon as possible.

It is hard to use all of the planes as often as others because of the large
amount in the game (73 total). So, I haven't yet included information for all
of them.

But overall, I hope that this helps you, and that you find what you are looking
for. I have collected a great deal of information while playing this game, and
I'll try my best to put it into words. Now let's get started, shall we?

NI#
===================================
14. F-117 Nighthawk
===================================

Basic Info: The Nighthawk is perhaps best known as the Stealth Fighter. It has,
however, a limited air-to-air self-defense potential, and this has never been
exploited. The aircraft is primarily tasked with destroying elements of an
enemy�s air defense network, and with clearing �corridors� through which
conventional attack aircraft and bombers can pass en route to their targets.
This is because of its ability to evade and avoid detection by enemy air
defenses.

===================================
54. Mirage F1
===================================

Basic Info: Battle tested, the Mirage F1 has been a bastion of France's air
defence capability for many years. Equally successful as a
ground-attack and reconnaissance airplane, it is respected by its allies and
feared by its enemies.

===================================
55. Mirage 2000
===================================

Basic Info: Now standard equipment in the French fighter arm, the Mirage 2000
has a large wing with "relaxed stability" and automatic flight control system,
making this warplane extremely aglie and giving better handling than
traditional deltas. Lacking a horizontal tail, the Mirage 2000 uses elevons at
the trailing edge ot its wing. The result is one of the world's most successful
delta-winged fighters.

RB#
===================================
56. Rafale B
===================================

Basic Info: The Dassault Rafale is the air fighter of tomorrow, created by
today's top scientists. Very soon, one- and two-seat
Rafales will rise to take command of the sky, as France's navy and air force
press these knife-shaped jets into action from
carrier decks and airfields. Thanks to its advanced propulsion and flight
controls, the Rafale can change altitude abruptly in midair. Another
maneuverability plus is the fact the pilot can steer in one direction and point
his nose to shoot in another. This makes it look as if the Rafale is flying
sideways. Or it can snap into a 180* turn in less space then any other fighter.
With this super agility, the Rafale pilot can rapidly get the jump on his
opponent. He can then launch several missiles or move in close in for the kill
with a rapid-fire 30-mm cannon. The duel is likely to be over in secounds- most
often with the Rafale as the easy victor.

===================================
59. Kfir C7
===================================

Basic Info: The Kfir (Hebrew word for lion cub) is an Israeli-made derivative
of the French Mirage III/Mirage V fighter/attack aircraft. The Kfir was
developed in part to overcome a French embargo of Mirage aircraft and in part
to improve the basic performance of the design.

LA#
===================================
60. Lavi
===================================

Basic Info: The Lavi program began in the late 1970s when IAI agreed to develop
a new multi-role fighter to replace Israel's aging A-4 Skyhawk and Kfir combat
aircraft. Seeing a need for some 300 aircraft, including 60 two-seat
combat-capable trainers, the Lavi was envisioned primarily as a close air
support and tactical attack platform with a secondary air superiority
capability.

T4#
===================================
61. T-4
===================================

Basic Info: The T-4 supersonic reconnaissance and attack weapons system was
intended to search for and destroy large surface targets such as aircraft
carriers and missile carrying ships as well as for reconnaissance. This concept
arose in the early sixties. Primary design emphasis was on the development of
an airframe capable of long range flight at three times the speed of sound. In
addition to its main mission, the preliminary design described the T-4 as:
- a reconnaissance aircraft;
- a long-range interceptor weapons system;
- a supersonic passenger aircraft.

===================================
62. F-2
===================================

Basic Info: The F-2 is planned as the replacement for Japan's aging,
domestically developed F-1 fighter. The cooperatively developed and
produced Japanese F-2 single-engine fighter (FS-X) has performance capabilities
roughly comparable to those of the U.S.
F-16.

===================================
64. FC-1 Fighter China
===================================

Basic Info: The FC-1 project started when the US stopped the delivery of F-16
and F-20 fighters to this country. This small machine is one of the more
manoeuvrable fighters and could turn and burn most of the elderly aircraft that
are still in production in the communist China.

===================================
66. ##10#
===================================

Basic Info: This aircraft gained attention as one fully developed by China.
This tailless canard delta fighter possesses a large wing surface and an air
intake on the bottom of the fuselage. Small and light, its silhouette is
reminiscent of that of the phantom Lavi.

ID#
===================================
67. IDF##
===================================

Basic Info: The twin-engine IDF is similar to the F-16 except that it is
slightly smaller and has a slightly shorter range. The IDF is a hybrid as far
as its external appearance is concerned. The nose of the fighter jet is a
replica of the F-20A Tigershark, while ts body, wings, and vertical tail
surface are apparently lifted from the F-16, and the shape of its cockpit hood
and vertical tail wing and its girth near the engine inlets have a notable
French flavor.

===================================
72. XA/B-25F Calyx
===================================

Basic Info: **Exclusive to game**
This wing-shaped aircraft somewhat resembles the B-2 Stealth Bomber, yet it has
a lot more curved structures. The guns are placed on each side, so it is a
little harder to hit your target with bullets because of the dead zone in
between.

===================================
73. XQ/U-2Bee Fatty
===================================

Basic Info: **Exclusive to game**
Taken from an old Konami game, this bizarre looking aircraft is actually a
pretty good plane to use. Aside from the fact that it is not very fast, it has
very good stats. I think it's funny how the missiles are actually the "gloves"
of the plane, and make that weird sound when they launch. Also, it has its own
music to accompany it during your flight.

    IV. Credits
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

I want to thank Konami for making a really good game. The amount of planes in
this game is amazing...which is what made me want to make a guide for them in
the first place.

I also want to thank myself...for not giving up hope while making this FAQ.


Hopefully, once I start getting feedback, I'll have more people to thank.
