Background

In 1985, a U.S. F-15A launched the ASM-135 anti-satellite missile and successfully destroyed an orbiting satellite, marking the first fighter-launched anti-satellite test in history. It proved the feasibility of air-based ASAT technology and escalated the Cold War space arms race. The program was later terminated due to space debris and international concerns.

How to Flight & How to Launch Missile

First

when you enter the game, AG1 (the aircraft engine) is turned on by default; you only need to adjust the throttle to take off.

Second

when you fly above 10,000 meters, the ASAT automatic launch procedure will be activated, and a prompt will appear on the screen. For best results, be sure to pull the nose up into the 75° to 90° range. Within 10 seconds, the ASAT will automatically complete separation and ignition. You can then also choose to control the ASAT to destroy your intended high-altitude target. ⚠️ Warning⚠️: Due to the use of solid rocket motors, the probability of hitting low-altitude targets is extremely low.
