Rip-off scenario from Air Force Delta. (Dreamcast.) And probably a rip-off in that from who knows where.
I admit though, that mission stinks to high heaven. You have no choice, due to the time limit, but to sit there, trying to evade fire from enemy fighters, while at the same time trying to destroy the sattelite before it crashes to earth.

What you didn't manage to shoot them down before it showed up?

Even flying the F-14D (Sakura petals, eee!) I generally manage to whack the fighters before SOLG shows up. And there is more than one way to kill it, you know. You can fly down the barrel and one-shot it.

Usually it's orange...I can't actually think of one in which it's violet like that. Sometimes the rings are, I think...but I don't really pay attention to them.

.... stop making me want to play again so I can try this.
Unfortunately, in Air Force Delta, even on the 'easy' level, the fighters and the sattelite show up at the same time. What sucks the most though, is that the mission ends as soon as you shoot the sattelite down, so you aren't able to turn on the annoying little gnats who have been shooting at you and give them what for.

I've done it and its not that difficult really. It helps if you take a small plane though, something like the X-29. You could also just shoot down the barrel with the Falken laser, but why not just blast apart the front at that point.

I must correct myself on this. I've been playing all the Ace Combats recently, and each time I've thought to look on the modern games, the engine flames are purple. That's odd.
