Aero Fighters, also known as Sonic Wings in Japan, is a vertically-scrolling shoot 'em up that was developed by Video System for arcades and was later ported over to the SNES. It stands out from other shoot 'em ups released at the time in that the final boss is random with each playthrough. It also takes a tongue-in-cheek approach to the "real world dogfighting" subgenre by including wacky elements like giant cyborg apes.
thegugafá in this run chooses Villiam from Great Britain and downs what was supposed to be a giant skull with tentacles that came from a stolen American space shuttle in outer space in record time.

There is a video from the author where he gives his commentary over the run (Portuguese only).
