This teeny-tiny article needs some work. You can help us by expanding it.


Thunderhawk II (サンダーホーク II) is a helicopter shoot-'em-up game developed and published by Core Design. It is the sequel to the Sega Mega-CD game Thunderhawk.

Thunderhawk II goes by several names in different regions of the world. It is known as Thunderstrike 2 in North and South America, and it is known as Firestorm: Thunderhawk 2 in Europe. Germany, however, call it Thunderhawk 2: Firestorm.

The game was developed with the Sega Saturn in mind, and was later ported to the Sony PlayStation and Windows PCs. Similar to other combat flight simulators, you pilot a AH-73M Thunderhawk through a variety of missions spread across the world. Like its predecessor, the game takes a first person perspective of the action, but unlike its predecessor, the world is presented in full real-time 3D. Initial plans were to release Thunderhawk II on the Sega 32X, but work was transferred over to the Saturn after the 32X's demise.
