In the year 19X9, on an alternate Earth, a global super-power known as the S Corps, which specializes in a heavy industrial army, begins invading various countries. All seems lost when a phantom pilot flying a super-powered biplane called the Tiger Shark flies in to save the world from domination.

'''Tropes used for this game:'''
* [[Awesome Yet Practical]]: The Flamethrower weapon at max level. It basically shoots two straight streams of damaging flames out in front, while another two on each side sweeps the entire area (except directly behind the player), allowing you to sweep away most regular Mooks. Best of all, it does a massive amount of damage per second.
* [[Battleship Raid]]: Present in this game, you get to fight regular battleships as well as boss fights like these.
Line 18 ⟶ 16:
* [[Dynamic Difficulty]]: And how: if you survive for long enough, the game makes all the enemies bullets a lot faster. And the tanks become sniper tanks like that of ''[[Raiden]]''...
* [[Engrish]]: When beating the game on hard mode: "CONGRATULATIONS! YOU'RE GREATEST PLAYER !"
* [[Everything Is's Even Worse Withwith Sharks]]: [[Inverted Trope|Inverted]], you're the "Fire Shark", and you kill stuff with your godly flamethrowers! Played straight from the enemy's point of view.
* [[Excuse Plot]]: As above.
* [[Fire-Breathing Weapon]]: The Flamethrower weapon, enough said.
