LADYDRAGON.COM - Lethal Skies Elite Pilot: Team SW

Developed by Asmik Ace Entertainment and published by Sammy Entertainment, Lethal Skies Elite Pilot: Team SW is a Flight Combat Action game where you fly with different fighter jets.

The World Alliance as assemble a group of elite pilot to fight against the WORF - World Order Reorganization Front - that exploits natural disasters for its own benefit. So you will be one of the pilot on the team SW.

You will start with Grace and Jake more can be unlock as you progress like Martin, Nandini and Doug.

In the main menu you can select Campaign where you have 20 missions to accomplish. But before you start there is a training area where you can familiarize yourself with flying with 4 training missions.

After you can practice with 4 Dogfight missions or simply Freeflight in 4 different parts of the world.

There is also a place called Theater where you can save 20 of your flight sessions then you can view them 5 different ways.

The fifth way is very unique and educative to watch. It is called ACMI - Air Combat Maneuver Instrument. It is in black where your plane is blue and the enemy is red plus the weapons fired are in gold so you can actually see your maneuvering plan for each enemy you went after, the one that you destroyed and did not destroyed so that you can improve your flying.

When you start your mission you will first be brief then see information of the map and your aircraft then you get to the Hangar its where you can change your plane and armaments then you move to Take Off and on this screen you see who flies which aircraft each member of your team has and what command you assigned them to do like To Destroyed all aircraft or Attack All command.

At first only the F-14D, F-16 and F/A-18E is available more can be unlock as you progress like the F15E, MIG-29, F-22, EF2000,JAS-39 and the SU 27.

There 5 view mode while you fly plus at the bottom right you can see not only your target before you hit it but also when you do. It is quite spectacular to see it explode when you go far down to hit a target then plight up very fast its like having a rear view mirror in the jet.

Since they try to make it a semi Arcade and Flight Simulation the controls need more improving. The moving of the nose is too slow and sometimes the throttle does not work well and you plane kind of staled in the middle of the air. When that happens you either crashed on the ground or into an enemy. So that makes the game hard at time specially when you try refueled from an other plane.

The sound is good accept the talking between the pilots you barely hear what they say.

There is no Multiplayer mode but you can replay some mission if you want to earn more award and unlock more planes and pilots.

Graphically the aircrafts are nicely designed and the terrains as well.

They is an other cool feature that they added where it simulated the G-force ( Force of Gravity) , you will either see black for flying high too fast or red for flying down too fast.

In LS you will found the control challenging to master but it has interesting new innovating features like the ACMI and the G-force simulation for you to enjoy.
