Revision as of 01:14, 14 December 2019

The Axelay is a Konami Legacy aircraft that only appears in Airforce Delta Strike. It was originally featured as the player's eponymous craft in Konami's 1992 SNES side-scrolling shoot-em-up Axelay.

Design

The Axelay is a very large and somewhat bulky craft, having two huge engines on the top of the craft, two additional engines on the back of it, and two large weapon bays on the sides of the ship. It has a single large vertical stabilizer, and two forward-swept wings. Its paint scheme is predominantly gray with bright red highlights, and it has a green-tinted cockpit. It has several blue "thrusters" on the weapon bays that flare up when the craft rolls or pitches.

Performance

The Axelay is a fairly average performer when it comes to the Konami Legacy aircraft; stats are all around above average, with the exception of mobility, which is merely average. Compared to the FLINT-ROCK, an aircraft that has very similar performance, the FLINT-ROCK has superior defense and mobility, but much worse speed and thrust, and has internal bomb bays, which are more awkward to use. Aside from that, their armaments are the same, and their special weapon, despite having different names, have the same performance. Overall, the Axelay is an above average ship that's arguably more practical to use than the FLINT-ROCK due to the better speed and thrust, and the lack of internal weapon bays for standard missiles.
