* MultipleEndings: The game can end at any point starting from mission 19 depending on what the player does:
** If the Z.O.E. craft is not shot down before all other targets are destroyed in mission 19, the game ends there with the liberation of St. Ark, and the player is treated to a credits roll of the squadron flying over the city.
** If the Z.O.E. craft is shot down, the game continues to mission 20, where the player tracks down one of the Dragonet-class subs and then has to chase one of its cruise missiles before it impacts St. Ark. Failing to shoot it down treats the player to a NonStandardGameOver of the missile separating and destroying the city, getting a message that the rebellion was successfully stopped but at a heavy cost, before immediately taking the player back to the main menu.
** If the cruise missile is shot down, the game moves on to the final mission, where the player wipes out the last of the rebel forces at Fortress Intolerance, getting a different credits roll of the squadron flying over the ocean and then a bonus attract mode of Scarface One flying through a canyon as the game displays how quickly you completed every mission.

* OptionalStealth: In the mission "Dead End", you're ''supposed'' to stay low to avoid radar contact, but you don't fail the mission immediately if you fly too high. The upside to staying stealthy until you reach the base is that you catch them off-guard and can kill some of the enemy planes before they can, or as they're attempting to, take off, including a pair of cargo planes that lead you to an alternate mission if you shoot them down.
