- Walkthrough - http://www.gamefaqs.com/nes/587347-ikari-warriors/faqs/21864 - Not speedrun oriented, but contains some general information about the game such as weapon descriptions and the item locations (unknown if there are more hidden items).
- "Strategy wiki" - https://www25.atwiki.jp/famicomall/pages/76.html - In Japanese. It contains maps for all areas (not complete in terms of hidden items though).

- "Discovery" of flying to the end of area 4 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yO5nKeLhilI (there are three more parts) - This video is part of TheMexicanRunner's quest to beat all licensed NES-games. During the playthrough of Ikari Warriors, he discovered that you could fly the helicopter until the end in level 4 by getting a lucky fuel can drop. Technically speaking, this had apparently been found before. In the area 4 map that can be found in the strategy wiki linked above, the author clearly took screenshots of the whole second half of the stage while being in the (glitched) helicopter (which is only possible by getting said fuel drop). This would likely have passed by unnoticed though if TheMexicanRunner hadn't came across the same trick.
