I have it. #80 from Oct/Nov 87.

Personally I hate energy allocation games, but I guess you could remove 
that aspect... It's made by Twentieth Century Imports, who incidentally 
also sold the minis back then.

Not too good research either. The game has fighter types F-15, F-5 and
A-10... Starblazers/Yamato fighters did have names too... Pretty simple
though, 4 pages of rules and 5 charts, plus 4 turning templates and one
fire arc template. And complex SSD's for all ships, with a point system
no-one cares to explain.
