F-15 Strike Eagle II: Deluxe Edition

User Summary

A compilation of F-15 Strike Eagle II and the Operation Desert Storm expansion disk.

The Desert Storm expansion adds eight historical missions based on Operation Desert Storm. Random missions can be generated for the Desert Storm theater, just like with the standard theaters. Certain Desert Storm missions replace the standard F-15 Strike Eagle II Maverick missiles with different air-to-ground ordnance, such as Paveway laser guided bombs, Rockeye II cluster bombs or HARM anti-radar missiles (as dictated by the target type).

Two additional theaters are added from Microprose's F-19 Stealth Fighter: North Cape and Central Europe. Night missions are now available in all theaters.
