A-10 Tank Killer is a classic early flight simulator by Dynamix based on the Fairchild A-10A Thunderbolt II. Very nice graphics for its time and already showed some signs of the quality that made Dynamix popular with later games such as Red Baron and Aces over Europe.
Overall it's not a game for flight-sim rookies due to difficult missions and fidgety controls. Check out the much-improved updated game called A-10 Tank Killer v1.5, also on this site. Requires a slow-down util on modern computers. BTW: The game uses lots of digitized pictures as menu illustrations. Something Dynamix did quite often back then. When you see these today, they look grainy and poor - nothing special. But I remember, back then when this game came out I didn't even have an Amiga and was still only used to 8-bit games, where such pictures were completly impossible. Seeing them in a computer games magazine caused quite some amazement... I feel old. :)

The main scud group is in scud hunt is in J1. It took me a while to find it :)
Does anyone know where the main scud group is in scud hunt? Can never find it
I remember playing it on a Commodore 64.?
Dave, download an app called DOSBOX. This emulates up to x86 DOS games and it means you can run old games that run on old DOS. Its quite complicated to set up though so try and find a tutorial.
AVG keeps catching a malware or virus when I try to download!
EDIT: Manual added, thx fdisk ;)
i have the original game but the disk is broken , not work in pc is bad sector:(
Dosbox 0.74 + Win7 (64bit) Works fine but I couldn't handle the pc speaker music and what appeared to be no sound effects (maybe config thing but) finally the resolution was so low I just decided I have better airplane simulators and I called it a day. (Uninstalled, deleted files)
why don't you run it under dosbox in win 7 ?
Thank you for having uploaded this memory of my childhood, too bad i have win7 64bit and i cant start it up, can i do something for it?
Does anybody know how to get the joystick working? I can`t select it (only mouse and keyboard works)??? Thanx!
Does A-10 Tank Killer support the Sound Blaster?
Excelent sim of combat, very realistic.
