''Soukyugurentai'' (a.k.a. ''Terra Diver'') is a vertical-scrolling [[Shoot 'Em Up]] published by [[Eighting Raizing]] in 1996 for the [[Sega Saturn]] ST-V hardware, later ported to the [[Sega Saturn]] proper and the Playstation. Its gameplay is distinguished by having lock-on weapons similar to the [[Ray Series]], except able to lock on to 3-D wireframe areas. Its music was composed by [[Hitoshi Sakimoto]] and [[Manabu Namiki]].
 
In the year 2050, space mining operations are becoming competitive as the Eight Luck Interstellar Development Inc. starts muscling in on other companies in an aggressive manner. The Jin-Sei Corporation teams up with Japan to counteract Eight Luck. It is now up to a few pilots and their advanced space ships to save the day.

* [[Fighter Launching Sequence]]: [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=shTMXSlZue4&t=01m27s The launch sequence before the first level takes 9.92 seconds to complete.]. The next two levels after that has the player ship launching from an [[Airborne Aircraft Carrier]].

* [[Mega Corp]]: At a minimum, the Jin-Sei Corporation and Eight Luck Interstellar Development are this.
* [[No Export for You]]: For the [[Sega Saturn]] and [[Play Station]] ports, even though the Arcade version runs on hardware that is very closely related to the [[Sega Saturn]].
* [[Required Secondary Powers]]: Each of the pilots has undergone strengthening procedures so that they can survive high-speed dogfighting in deep space.
* [[Roboteching]]: The playable characters fire a lot of bending beams.
* [[Tank Goodness]]: There are many enemy tanks, but one that stands out as the boss of stage 3 is the Grapple Strategy Attack tank 'Don-Ryu'.
