Red Zone

The game consists mainly of air-to-ground attack while flying the Apache, using its loadout of rockets, guided missiles, 30 mm cannon, and defensive infrared air-to-air missiles to eliminate hostiles from the air, land, and sea. Fuel drums, repair kits, and ammunition depletion are factors to keep in mind, requiring careful planning for pickups to ensure the chopper stays in the air and continues fighting.

Between in-chopper combat, there are mission-oriented sequences where the helicopter occupants disembark and perform on-foot missions inside buildings. Each of the three characters has a unique set of weapons, and the player can choose from any of them, as long as none have been killed during previous on-foot missions.
