How To Beat Every Computer Player In The Arena.
First you need to buy the double rack of vertical launch missiles, then choose the abandoned highway map. When the mission starts DO NOT move off the building. Just wait for the enemy AC to get in range and keep pounding it with the missiles. The enemy AC's cant defend well enough against that kind of attack. The tactic works for ALL of the arena fighters even Aries.


Pilot Upgrades.
Keep losing the first mission after the Raven Test till you have -50,000 credits, and then die.
