Editor note

Typical Taito mid-80s hardware but with dual video output.

Sound board: Z80, 2 x YM2149, OKI M5232
CPU board: Z80, ROM and RAM, 68705P5 MCU (protected)
OBJ board: ROMs and RAM
Video board: ROMs and RAM, 4 x Fujitsu MB112S146 (also used on arkanoid, lkage)

The rest is just common logic, there are no custom chips.
The cabinet uses a half-silvered mirror to mix the images from two screens for a pseudo-3D effect.

Backgrounds and enemies on the ground are displayed in the lower screen, while
player ship and enemies in the air are displayed in the upper screen.
And the cabinet also has two speakers. The sound of enemies on the ground is heard
from the bottom speaker and the sound of enemies in the air is heard from the top speaker.
