Hint: Spy Planes and Bombers:
In order to catch up to the red planes on the map (before you take flight), you must select the best plane with range. The higher the range, the faster you catch them. This is the only way to catch these red planes (Bombers or Spy). Otherwise, you will fly in circles trying to catch them.

Hint: Easier kills:
Always target the yellow section of a battleship, carrier, or any other type of target. Forget the turrets, as they explode once the yellow section is hit by your missiles or machine guns. You do not have time or missiles to try to get each target for more points.

Hint: Recommended fighter jets to win the first time around:
Use the F-14, F15C, F-18, F-22, BlackWidow, Funeral (end).
