Firestorm: Thunderhawk 2

Firestorm: Thunderhawk 2 is a combat flight simulation game developed and published by Core Design, sequel to Thunderhawk AH-73M and released in 1995 across PlayStation, Sega Saturn, and MS-DOS. Known as Thunderstrike 2 in North America, the game puts players in command of a military helicopter through a series of combat missions.

This is the Value Series Ricochet budget re-release covering the UK and France, carrying serial SLES-00145#. It is housed in a Full Jewel PAL case containing a single disc, with a hologram on the case. English and French are the supported languages. Research notes confirm this variant includes an additional “Value Series” band printed on the front cover, which is the key physical distinction from the otherwise near-identical plain Ricochet edition sharing the same EAN barcode. No loose paperwork, case stickers, or bundled demo discs are present. Twelve PAL variants of Firestorm: Thunderhawk 2 are catalogued in total.
