Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Heli Attack 3D at 61% against Air Support!'s 17%. Air Support!'s advantage is rating (4.3 vs 3.9) and ratings volume (12K vs 136). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Air Support! sells 9 one-off in-app purchases and Heli Attack 3D sells 2 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Air Support! holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 3.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Air Support! has 12K ratings behind it against 136, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 17% of Air Support!'s written reviews are positive against 61% of Heli Attack 3D's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Air Support! ships an update every 2 weeks, Heli Attack 3D every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 17, 2026 and October 4, 2026 respectively.
