These consist of patrols, dogfights, bombers escorts, or protecting ally carriers and airfields. Players can pilot both fighters and bombers depending on the objectives. There are also single missions in locations such as the Pacific, Germany, the Mediterranean and the Eastern Front where aircraft from Britain, Italy, Australia and Germany are controlled. Overall the different missions include Attack on Pearl Harbor, Battle of Wake Island, Guadalcanal Campaign, Battle of Midway, Battle of the Coral Sea, Siege of Malta, Battle for the Kuban, Port Moresby, and Ruhr. In singleplayer there is a historical campaign for both the American and Japanese side. Next to well famous aircraft it also includes for instance the much lesser known Australian CAC Boomerang of which only 250 were made. It contains over 100 licensed airplanes from the different sides, including planes from Australia, United Kingdom, Germany, Italy, Japan, USA, and the USSR.
