Harrier Attack!
Take-off from the aircraft carrier, and fly towards the enemy island. You will then have to speed-up your Harrier or it will run out of fuel before getting all the way over the island. You will also have to avoid the guided missile launched by the enemy patrol boat. You may fly faster, slower, higher or lower, but if you fly too high you will be detected by enemy jet fighters that will attack you with more guided missiles. You will also be under almost constant attack from land-based anti-aircraft fire. At skill level 1 you will be able to fly through most of this flak without damage, but at higher levels the chance of flak destroying your Harrier will greatly increase. You may attempt to shoot down the enemy missiles, planes and land-based weapons with your short-range rocket fire, but if you do so you will have to immediately dodge out of the way of the explosion or your own plane will be damaged. You may also bomb the enemy artillery as you fly over the island, but be careful to keep enough bombs in reserve to wipe-out the enemy base. Having completed your mission you will have to fly back to your carrier and land before your fuel runs out. While in the air you may hide in the cloud though beware of the flak which may be hidden there. Your harrier is armed with air-burst bombs that explode just above ground-level; these will only destroy the enemy artillery when directly overhead.
