My 1 & 2 scores are secure and sure for the time being, so I'm going after the last two. It appears i'll have to switch back to Strikers after this, something about a wall that has 1-4 written on it

I saw how well you all were doing with the Blazers, so I tried them too. Very nice ship, good balance of firepower, and great coverage. But, my score with them (over a million) fell short of my high score with Cindy & Ellen, and I didn't want the AF3 scoreboard to be like Strikers 1945 III with everyone using the X-36, so I figured I would try the Russians because I haven't used them yet here. They too have a double side shot and plenty of powerful & numerous missile spam covering the front side, and their "bomb" so to speak hangs around the screen much longer than the other ships do, so you can get up close and shoot the bosses much faster.

Lord White for the win, especially in THIS game. Wide normal shot, and napalm like explosions fanning out to the top of the screen, perfect for the smaller enemy planes, and does nice damage to the medium-strength enemies and bosses. His bomb is an larger, amplified version of those explosions with greater damage.
