12 March 2034. A signal from beyond the Kuiper Belt went unsolved for three days. On the fourth day it answered: the sky split and the Hive fleet settled into Earth orbit. Satellites fell within the hour. Massed armies became targets and command chains broke. All that held were scattered airbases. Earth is defended region by region now โ and in this phase four nations' fighters fly. You are the last squadron. โ WAVE-DRIVEN MISSIONS โ The boss does not arrive on a timer. Each mission is built from waves, and a wave ends only when enough enemies fall. Mission length follows your performance. โ 320 OPERATION INSIGNIA โ Every mission has four objectives on every difficulty: Operation Complete, Full Sweep, Steel Wing, Untouched. Higher difficulty tiers unlock with the insignia you earn. โ TEN AIRCRAFT, TEN WEAPON PATTERNS โ Four national fighters plus six hangar aircraft. Each has its own firing pattern. Pattern crates collected in flight let you switch between them โ the power never changes, only your style of fighting. โ FOUR DIFFICULTY TIERS โ Easy, Hard, Very Hard, Impossible. Higher tiers mean enemies fire more often and arrive in greater numbers โ not bloated health bars. โ HEADQUARTERS โ Spend credits to raise your pilot's intellect, endurance, agility and fire rate. Buy new aircraft from the hangar and prepare consumables before a sortie. โ FROM ANATOLIA TO ORBIT โ It begins over Anatolia; passes the Bosphorus, Ankara, Mecca, Dubai and Agra; and ends on Mars and the plasma worlds. Nobody knows what waits beyond the rift. โ WEATHER โ Fog narrows your sight, crosswind pushes the airframe, extreme heat wears it down. Find the calm-air corridor and fly it. Playable in five languages: Turkish, English, Arabic, Hindi, Korean. The story, characters and events are entirely fictional.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Ace Wingmen at none against Last Squadron's 7. Last Squadron's advantage is update cadence (every 10 days vs every 3 weeks) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, ads and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
