[PS1][1997-98?] Anyone remember a scifi game involving flying a ship with a timebomb jammed in?

Platform: PlayStation 1
Genre: Arcade shooter?
Estimated years of release: 1997-1999
Graphics/art style: I think it was 3D, third-person? Not sure as I don't recall seeing many screenshots/images from the game.
Notable characters: n/a
Notable gameplay mechanics: something to do with a timebomb/time pressure to get through levels/stages.

Other details: I don't remember all the details, as I found it when looking through a video game shop site's lists, but I remember it wasn't Descent Maximum as I had that at the time.

It seemed almost like the idea was similar to the escape sequences from that but a whole game built around that time pressure.

Different platform, but it kind of reminds me of Terminal Velocity for DOS

Forsaken was pretty similar to Descent.

perhaps "G-Police"? I've only briefly played it's demo on pc ~around the same time as Unreal Tournament (99) had a demo. The game was also released on PS1

G-Police is fairly arcade, and iirc missions were fairly time-limited for ... some reason? anyhoo, maybe screenshots might feel familiar? https://www.mobygames.com/game/1543/g-police/screenshots/

This has often come up when I've looked, but every time I read the description (which is what I remember more) it doesn't click.

Appreciate the reply though!
