=======================================

1)  Ace Combat the long standard in modern air combat game..Namco has
made 5 of these games. It all started with Air Combat which started it all.It
showed what a jet game should be.. Ace Combat 2 came along and picked
up the bar big time.... Ace Combat 3 in my opinion didnt deserve to be
made. The idea of a futureistic made up planes just didnt get me like the
others did. Ace Combat 4 came. It dominated everything it set the bench
mark and was a terrific game. Ace Combat 5 now here this game IS better
than Ace Combat 4.It has done so much in just detail that it is truely one of
the best games period.

I am Jarred just another Ace Combat Fan i will try to help you guys beat this
game and unlock all the goodies..

=====================================

When you see usefullness its 1-10 10 being the best. This info is from the
game.
I will add my opinion on all of them...

A) Air To Ground
UGB - Unguided Bomb, small free-fall bomb inflicts to ground targets
close to impact area. Usefullness 4 , Just doesnt have the punch or
the blast radius
UGBL - Unguided Bomb Large, Extensive damage to ground targets
wide radius of the blast Usefullness 9, Plenty of damage large
blast radius but unguided.
RCL - Rocket Launcher, Launches multiple unguided rocket
missiles exploding on impact damaging near by targets
Usefullness 2, Totally sucks inaccurate not reliable.
NPB - Napalm Bomb, Unguided. Releasesand ignites flamable
material damaging targets in a long path along where the bomb was
droped. Usefullness 7 , Good for targets in a line just drop causes
medium damage.
LAGM - Long Range Air 2 Ground Missile, AG missile very long
range and wide radius of damage Usefullness 10, LONG range and
good blast radius lots of damage...
XAGM - Advanced AG Missile, Up to 4 XAGM's can lock onto
and be fired at different targets simultaniously. Usefullness 8, Short
range great damage 4 targets-- BYE
LASM - Long Range Air to Surface Missile, Long range with high
power upon impact. Best used as a anti ship weapon. Usefullness
10, LONG range mass damage
FAEB - Fuel Air Explosive Bomb, Unguided ignites a cloud of highly
explosive fuel dispersed over the impact area causing damage to
extremly wide area. Usefullness 8, HUGE blast radius but not alot
of damage caused plus its unguided.
GPB - Guided Penetrating Bomb Large, When dropped bomb can
glide toward a target with a lock on. Small radius of explosion but
inflicts heavy damage. Usefullness 9, Fire and forget bomb it guieds
itself to target and has huge damage.
BDSP - Bomblet Dispencer, Releases numerous bomblets from
body damaging long strip of  ground along direction of travel.
Usefullness 7, Wide area, great damage but not to good to use
againt multiple targets spreaded out.
SOD - Stand Of Dispencer, Releases numerous bomblets are
dispersed from a guided dispencer that flies over a locked on
target. Usefullness 7, Long range mass damage just not good for
targets spead out.
SFFS - Self Forging Fragment Submunitions, AKA Cluster Bomb,
Freefall bomb fragments into numerous bits of shrapnel wide area
damage if droped high enough. Usefullness 9, Wde area powerful
damage and unguided

B) Air To Air
Missile - Standard heat seeking missile.. Usefulness 6, You Will use
this ALOT little range, medium damage to light armored enemys.
SAAM - Semi Active Air To Air Missile, High accuracy and long
range. Once fired you have to keep the target inside the circle.
Usefullness 9, Long range massive damage but you do have to keep
the target in the circle even if your being shot at.
QAAM - Quick Manuver Air to Air Missile, Advanced guidence
system can stay locked on to a enemy even at you six.
Usefullness 8, Not as good as in AC4 but still good to use same distance
as reg missile just alot more accurate
XMAA - Advanced Medium Range Air to Air Missile, AA missile
long range that can be fired at up to 4 air targets simultaniously.
Usefullness 9, Long range accurate and causes mass damage
XLAA - Advanced Long Range Air to Air Missile, AA missile
VERY LONG range that can be fired at up to 4 targets simultaniously.
Usefullness 10, LONG range accurate and causes mass damage.

C) Other
Machine Gun - Standard item good for close combat.. Usefulness 5,
Short distance fighting fighting only you will use this alot if u have a
itchy trigger finger.
ECMP - Electronic Countermeasure Pod, Uses radar jamming to
lower targeting capibilities of enemies within the effective range.
Usefullness 6, No offensive but make missiles miss you and thats good
TLS - Tactical Lazer, Focuses high intensity lazer on target
extensive damage, Hard to evade cause of the delay between firing
and impact. Usefullness 8, Great for ships and ground targets but
hrader for AA targets.. Instant death

Low cost, light weight tatical fighter with respectable capabilities in all
areas, Easy to fly and maintain, the Tiger 2 is employed in air forces
around world.
My Opinion: This jet just isnt good. It got a 1 because its handeling and
is low missile count and it secondary weapon.. If it would have had
better weapons it would have gotten a 2

This is a easy mission for all you returning AC4 veterans. Just follow
Bartlett at the start. Then when the mission updates there will be a pack of
4 MiG-21s inbound to protect the Sr-71. They will eventually engage us and
Bartlett will give us permission to fire at will.. Just take out all those
you can. The more you take out the more money u get. After all them are gone

and take out all the UAVs before the squad gets there. After all are gone
MiG-21s will appear and fly to take us out. After they are gone take out the

Mission 03 Narrow Margin
OPERATION ??
DATE 2010/09/27
TIME ??
AREA Port St. Hewlett
Targets:
1st Half
14   A-6E
2    F-5E
2nd Half
1    Mir-2000
3    Nimrod
4    F-4E
8    Naval
Recomended Aircraft:   F-5E
Objective: Protect the Osea Aricraft Carrier Kestrel as it escapes from port.

1st Half
After the second mission when we were told to land and take off. This is where
we went. So you dont get to choose your plane yet. Our naval base is being
attacked you must protect it. At the start there is 2 A-6s take them out 2 more
will come from vector 280 kill those A-6s and 4 more will appear. This time
they will be heading to the Kestrel. Take those out and some F-5s will come to
try to push you back kill them and then take out remaining A-6s.

Objective: Protect the Kestrel from enemy attack as it escapes to open water
2nd Half
Now that the fleet has escaped the harbor you must still protect them. At first
there will be the lone Mirage. Take it out then take out all 3 Nimrods that come
to shoot our fleet. After they are gone take out the 2 frigates coming from the
left. After they are gone you may want to kill a F-4 so you can buy that later..
Then Take out the remaining destroyer (4 shots) and frigates.. After all ships
are cleared from the fleets path mission is over...What i do on ships is climb
to about 15,000 then dive bomb slowly when in missile range fire 2 or 1 and
fire the machine guns on it. Saves missiles. It dont work that well with
destroyer.
