Cobra Command, known as Thunder Storm in Japan, is a 1983 FMV arcade game by Data East. It was first released on Sega Laserdisc hardware presumably as an upgrade for Astron Belt (MAME has Astron Belt as this game's parent). The following year, Data East released the game on both their own Laserdisc hardware and Gottlieb's M.A.C.H. 3 hardware as well.
Wolf Team ported it to the Sega Mega CD in 1992, keeping the Cobra Command name in the US and Europe but renaming it Thunder Storm FX (サンダーストームＦＸ) in Japan.
In Europe Cobra Command was later bundled with Sol-Feace, a horizontal shoot-'em-up. As European Mega CD games were distributed in jewel case quad boxes, one "half" of the box was devoted to Cobra Command, and the other to Sol-Feace. In America it was bundled with Road Avenger. gmode, a mobile games developer who purchased Data East's intellectual property after their bankruptcy, has since ported it to iOS.
