I did this in a much simpler way: -Using DosBox-X (which has menu driven configuration) - Mounted the download folder as my C: drive - Downloaded the game's ISO from Internet Archive - Mounted the ISO using Daemon Tools (any virtual mounting should do) This appears as a drive in Windows (let's call it H:) - Configured DosBox-X to mount it's D: drive from the Windows Mounted volume (i.e. H: ) - Game works! (executing USNF.exe in C: )
No need to muck around with MSCDEX. Works on Windows 10

Guys...Forget it...downloading this stuff is just a waste of time...You need specific skills that are not within everyone's reach. As far as I'm concerned, I wasted a lot of time in various attempts.....I mount the .iso files, but the games, when starting, require the presence of the CD in the drive!!! Are we still at this nonsense?...Does it take a long time to understand that when the game has physical protection, it is also necessary to provide the crack-no CD? Is it really that difficult to understand? If these cracks cannot be provided, then the game is better left alone. For those who have succeeded, I congratulate them, perhaps it is not their skill, but the luck of having dated computers.

I have the CD version and the game is very hard to beat a mission, every time the enemy disappeares and I fail missions, it's not like F-22 Lightning II and the Ace Combat games on original Playstation.

Tried the step by step from Anon in windows 10. It doesn't work. Extract download, check Rename iso image in Images folder to USNF. check Mount that iso and note what drive it is (IE F:\), check (the window shows "DVD Drive (E:)USNF" Then run DOSBox and type Mount d: e:\, check Then type e: , failure "Drive E: does not exist! you must mount it first. " Any ideas what I'm missing?

You said it ALP. Back on the day getting these to work on the original DOS machines was a trial in itself. :) Getting it to work on DOSbox is a breeze compared to that.

To get the Enhanced CD version working.
Extract download
Rename iso image in Images folder to USNF
Mount that iso and note what drive it is (IE F:\)
Then run DOSBox and type
Mount d: f:\
Then type
f:
Then DOSBox asks the question to access as a real drive
Type Y
After that mount the main USNF folder
Do that by typing
Mount c: d:\USNF
d part of command being where the USNF directory is (Can be anywhere on PC)
Finally type
C:\
and
USNF
Hope that explains in laymans terms.

amazes me to see folks complain about having to mess with the DosBox emulator to get these games working... for a free try at a game that would have cost real money back in the day and isnt even built for their current OS.... there are plenty of web pages to help folks out. Plsying with DOSBOX has made computers fun again after too long just being an icon clicker :)

To solve the CD problem on DosBox, with the version of USNF on CD: " To enable CD-ROM support (includes MSCDEX) in Windows: - mount d f:\ -t cdrom " This was extracted from the Help File of DosBox: "DOSBox 0.74 Manual.txt", it's into Program Files, path of DosBox installed.
"d" is the drive to use into DosBox, "f:\" is the drive of your computer where the CD is inserted, for example a virtual drive mounted with Daemon Tools or similar software, using the USNF .iso.
I hope you can enjoy this great game.

I unzipped and placed into folder. Did Dosbox to C:\Games\USNF USNF
The game won't load because of no CD. I searched for a MF.BAT and this is not on the file listing. Please advise. Thanks!
