The US NES cover art portrays a human pilot, which seems misleading as the game's protagonists, Red Baron and Blue Max, along with the antagonist Black Hawk, are actual birds along with the whole game taking place during World War I in the country of Bird Land which is inhabited by birds, and not the actual United States as depicted on the box cover.
