I had this back in the day. My favorite thing to do was start the landing training mission where two planes guide you down. Then I'd shoot them so they catch fire and just watch as they struggled! lol
rofl!!! me too. I used to play the one mission where you shot the bombers down over the big port area and there were some fighters you could get into it with as well. In fact now as I watch, I'm about 3:46 in, I think this is that exact mission haha! Fun game for what it was back in the day. I'm 33 now so I would have been about 8 or 9 when I played this.
God watching gameplay footage of this game again it's no wonder why I loved it so much, it really felt like a flight simulator only it was fun to play and just kind of let you do what you wanted to do.
I used to love playing this game as a kid, I loved the physics and just the way the game felt, it felt more realistic than games on the PSX like Ace Combat
Lembrei da minha infância, quando ganhei meu primeiro Pc e joguei esse jogo na epoca.. Muito divertilo ele, e também lembro que tinha 2 DVD's de jogos, um era o ''PCGames'' e o outro ''Computer&Games''.
loved this game!!! but could never seem to finish a mission haha! i always wondered off somewhere far away and losing fuel to a crash. Still fun non of the less
Best flight game ever made imo. I want this to have a HD reboot so badly. The physics and complexity of the controls would make this an intense online game. So much better than those arcade style dog fight games.
I love this game. I used to play it a lot many years ago. It's cool to see it again! I wanna download it. I hope it can be run on Windows 7. (The end of the video was the best haha)
Oh yeah, I'm sorry I should have said that those are the + or - keys on the number pad. I think there might be a way to manually adjust thrust by clicking and dragging on the HUD somewhere - but I am not too sure about that one. You sure that the "+" or "-" keys on the keyboard didn't do it (right next to backspace)? IIRC the tower view is activated with "5".
Yep, This is still the best flight sim sandbox action to date. There is still nothing on the latest consoles that matches A10-Cuba on PC for FUN! No game available has the same freedom to fly around and make up your own missions. I love taking off and pretending I have stolen the A10, and then pepper the runways and watch other aircraft fall into the pits. And machine gun off the wings of other A10s etc etc etc.... Ahhh many many hours of sheer fun to be had. It may look dated, but the flight model and fun to be had is untouchable even on the Xbox360. Ace Combat 6 is very nice, but is 2nd place to A10-Cuba for sheer scope of fun to be had!
TommoHawkeye I know this is a REALLY old comment and you've probably heard of these games by now but I think the closest you're gonna get is either Arma 2 or Arma 3.
@newtonttesla i play pc games since 1982 ... i was six and i was able to take off with flight simulator One on a M24 Olivetti pc with a video only green colour... :)))
Im 13 years old, all the games today are pretty crap, except for a few like borderlands, I'm thinking about buying a DOS computer on ebay think i should?
You don´t need computer like Pentium 120 to play DOS games - all u need is DOSBox - simple program, which can run old games. Type on Google "DOSBox", download it and play :-)
I found my old cd and installed it on windows 7 64 bit, it works with a .bat file to fix color problem, I can't install the newer official 1.2 patch, can anyone?
DCS A-10c (yes C and not A) is toping this in terms of realism like a jet a slug in terms of speed. I played A-10 Cuba when I was a child... LOT of fun. But not realistic :P Startup that quick is bullshit... but at it's time it was OP.
+FreakSX93 Actually the realism doesn't have much difference from the viewpoint of flight modeling. The most significant difference is that DCS's A-10 has a lot more detailed cockpit. The avionics, however, are pretty much same. Alongside F/A-18 Korea, A-10 Cuba was among the most realistic combat flight sims.
+Usumgallu I have to disagree. You cannot compare these two seriously. DCS is just so many generations ahead that it's realism in terms of flight model, aerodynamics, dynamic center of gravity, damag model, realistic avionics, graphics, physics, ... is just way ahead. For the time A-10 Cuba came out it was as realistic as it could be. Today there are new standards. I love them both :-)
is it possible for anyone contact me for online play i played this as a kid i never had the chance to play it online i didnt had internet when i was a kid
I was 70 this year and bought a clapped out ancient PC just to play the CD of A10-Cuba! picked up off Ebay. Happy days 🙂
Was playing this in 1996. Thanks for the upload! The flight model was awesome back then.
I had this back in the day. My favorite thing to do was start the landing training mission where two planes guide you down. Then I'd shoot them so they catch fire and just watch as they struggled! lol

This was the most fun part of the game. They were true soldiers, they would never give up even with only one engine working.
My favourite airplane game of all... I remember faking sickness to skip class so I could stay at home playing it all day long. =)
I remember this music from when I was 6 years old. I don't even know if I've finished a mission yet one of the most memorable games.
Same, i finished a couple of missions when i was 7 or 8 yo lol basically learned english by this game, soy de argentina hablo español jajajaja
Ian King what a game, RIP to the greatest pilot of the game our late Dad
havent heared this for more than a decade.... damn the memories
God watching gameplay footage of this game again it's no wonder why I loved it so much, it really felt like a flight simulator only it was fun to play and just kind of let you do what you wanted to do.
Man this brings back memories! So many times I came home from high school and chilled out with this game, flying around and blowing stuff up :)
damn. i remember my 10 year old brain completely failing to make sense of this game
Oh the nostalgia! I love the shit out of this game when I was a kid!
I used to love playing this game as a kid, I loved the physics and just the way the game felt, it felt more realistic than games on the PSX like Ace Combat
That's what I remember too, even the way the plane tipped forward when you braked on the ground, seemed so realistic
Lembrei da minha infância, quando ganhei meu primeiro Pc e joguei esse jogo na epoca.. Muito divertilo ele, e também lembro que tinha 2 DVD's de jogos, um era o ''PCGames'' e o outro ''Computer&Games''.
7 year old me couldn't get enough of this game
This takes me way back....
Holy shit that music brought back memories!!!!!!
One of the best games ever
Dear god I loved this game. Played it to death.
loved this game!!! but could never seem to finish a mission haha! i always wondered off somewhere far away and losing fuel to a crash. Still fun non of the less
I want a video of someone ejecting in the Hangar. I'll never forget the resulting scream.
Best flight game ever made imo. I want this to have a HD reboot so badly. The physics and complexity of the controls would make this an intense online game. So much better than those arcade style dog fight games.
DCS now gives same expirience. If you try A-10:Cuba! today, you will discover it's simplicity. But for 1996 it was top.
Launching Harm missiles on Mig29s.. was awesome
Obrigado meu amigo,muito obrigado!
wow this brings back memory's
I love this game. I used to play it a lot many years ago. It's cool to see it again! I wanna download it. I hope it can be run on Windows 7. (The end of the video was the best haha)

Mi primer simulador de vuelo que nostalgia ❤
Oh god I miss equipping AGM-65's to fire at the two fire engines going around the base.
I managed to get this game working again, only problem was it wouldn't recognise my USB joystick. Shame as this game was utterly awesome.
@gigliom
thanks you, this is very good simulator, i found it just now - in 2011 :-(, but i must admit, in 1996 i wasnt PC for this game
Hahaha A 10 used to play it with my kids!
@gigliom i play this game many years ago and i havent got bored!
loved this as a kid.
u should use harm missiles at this mission
Does anyone know where i can find the version for win10? Supposedly there should be one.
The link is dead for the download, could you fix the download?
Been trying to track down a windows copy for a while now.

TommoHawkeye DCS A-10C?
the best flight model engine ever!!!!
Minus key "-" ... Shift + - or Shift + + makes it go to 100% or 0% ... Shift + - twice shuts the engines off (try it in midair) ;)
Is there a 64 bit version (for Win 10) available?
@newtonttesla i play pc games since 1982 ... i was six and i was able to take off with flight simulator One on a M24 Olivetti pc with a video only green colour... :)))
A10 Cuba in Windows 10?
This game was fun. I only had the demo though.
I remember I always stalled every time I tried to bank too hard.
Gangstered the hell out of that taxi to take off.
Augh, I know exactly what you mean! I'd also go out of bounds so the MiG-29s would intercept, and I would use invincibility and eventually down them.
i have some orther problems if i get shot and my engine is on fire i cant find the buttons for thos yelow things do you know them ( sorry for spam :3)
you are hilarious !!!! good job with the captions
For me was in start all ok, try set on sound in Preferences (i used Win XP to play this classic)
Im 13 years old, all the games today are pretty crap, except for a few like borderlands, I'm thinking about buying a DOS computer on ebay think i should?
Me too!! Oh the memories.
I set on sound but it is still not working any tips?
You don´t need computer like Pentium 120 to play DOS games - all u need is DOSBox - simple program, which can run old games. Type on Google "DOSBox", download it and play :-)
I found my old cd and installed it on windows 7 64 bit, it works with a .bat file to fix color problem, I can't install the newer official 1.2 patch, can anyone?
can u upload your cd? i cant install it con w7 :c
hey guys i 'm still stuck with how to lower thrust (is there any kind of help manual) thank you ^^
how do use set on sound? my sound is not working :(
Me diverti muuuito c esse jogo!
Good memories
I came here for the fail screen and was disappointed.
But seriously, I've been playing this game since I could operate a joystick!
does anyone has the user's manual? thank's!
Raise that landing gear!!

Do u know where can I download this?
MrElSatan u can download it from my sites (www. dosgames.sk), but it´s not compatible with Win 7 :(
tanks are so ant-like, could just wipe them out so easy or could if i wasn't like attacking ants with a knife
Cara este jogo foi minha infancia
Check out DCS A-10C :)
is it possible for anyone contact me for online play i played this as a kid i never had the chance to play it online i didnt had internet when i was a kid

I think not...
RetroGamer. biz What about Windows XP?
Vc jogou mto bem!! Eu só queria ver vc pousar na água como eu consegui
Serio? Nunca fiz isso, e eu era mt viciado
DO A BARRELL ROLL!
probably, nobody after me will watch entirely this video ... nice job with this old title but it's not an A-10 , it's a piper dressed with an a-10
Thanks :)
All I did was launch and bomb my own base. lol
