About Desert Gunship

Desert Gunship puts you in the cockpit of an attack helicopter over a hostile desert airbase.

Fly low between the hangars, pick your weapon, and clear the camp before it clears you. Seven operations, each with a different job: wipe out a camp, raid a supply depot, pull survivors out under fire, hold a line against an assault, run a bomb to its target, and fight for air superiority against enemy gunships.

Then enter the Tournament. Twelve countries seeded by strength, three battlefields, three difficulty levels, and one rule: a single loss ends the run.

Coins and XP from every sortie go into the hangar. Heavier armour, harder hitting guns, more speed, then back out to the mission that beat you.
