* ''VideoGame/WingCommander III'', The final mission was supposed to be this, with staying in the canyons on the way to the fault target to avoid attracting the attention of infinitely respawning Ekapshii, but a glitch in the transition from the space leg of the mission to the atmosphere leg allowed the "one time" cloak to be used again, making it trivially easy to get there, by cloaking and flying above the mountains in a straight line.

* In ''Film/TopGunMaverick'', The mission to [[spoiler: take down an enemy uranium refinery in an unidentified rogue country]] is definitely one of these, it is nigh impossible (pun intended) to the point that even TOPGUN graduates - already among the most exceptional pilots in the world who are selected to do this mission specifically because of it - have very low chances to survive. Hangman notes that even [[AcePilot Maverick]] himself (or any pilot in history, for that matter) has never been through this kind of mission before.

* ''Film/{{Octopussy}}'': The ActionPrologue depicts Film/JamesBond trying to destroy an aircraft hangar in an unnamed South American dictatorship. Initially, he tries to covertly plant bombs in there on foot while disguised as a military officer, but he is found out and captured. So he escapes with help from another agent, flies a miniature plane out of the trailer she was driving for him, and gets targeted by a guided anti-aircraft missile. Then he flies into the hangar, narrowly steers the plane through the closing doors on the other end, and lets the missile destroy the hangar for him. A rare case where the hero isn't the one directly aiming/firing the weapon for the airstrike.

* ''Film/Devotion2022'': During the Yalu River mission, the Navy fliers are ordered not to return fire against the north bank, lest attacking Chinese soil bring the Soviet Union into the war. The Corsair squadrons use their rockets to suppress the AntiAir guns on the south bank so that the Skyraiders can attack the bridges with bombs, but ack-ack from the north bank forces the Skyraiders to break off before they can bomb the second bridge. Jesse defies Tom's orders to pull out and makes a zero-altitude attack run through the Chinese flak to blow the bridge himself with his last pair of rockets.
