Summary
This video game was also released for the ZX Spectrum in 1985. It is the sequel to Falcon Patrol.
Falcon Patrol II is a shoot-'em-up situated in a landscape resembling Egypt or the Middle East. The player controls a jet fighter and has to destroy a set number of enemy helicopters in order to clear a level. The helicopters come in three forms:
- Transport
- an unarmed transport helicopter that lays missile turrets and radar interference devices on the ground.
- Gunship
- escorts the transport helicopters and shoots at your fighter.
- Solo
- a fast combat helicopter that goes right after your fighter.
The jet fighter has a finite supply of fuel and ammunition, but both can be replenished by landing on a landing pad.
