Ace Combat Zero - Cutscene 02

The 2nd cutscene in Ace Combat Zero: The Belkan War.

Tracked down several individuals who knew him, his buddy included, yet completely going for aces who only encountered him for a few minutes only to be shot down later and not going to the people who actually worked with him, like the AWACS, his base commander, heck his hangar crew and his mercenary gang......

[@TheGamingKiller242]

What the ground crew who prepped his plane? Or the other pilots who kept getting killed by the Belkan air force or excalibur? Awacs I get, but we don't really have information on any Awacs in the series. Let alone one that was concealed by Osea. Come to think of it, Galm, and most of its allies were probably sealed away, or unpwrmitted from speaking to journalists. Not only to keep AWWNB secret, but I also imagine Cipher was likely tried for war crimes, and possibly sent to prison. That might be an explanation for his abrupt disappearance. No other pilots abruptly disappeared in the way he did.

[@SaoirseLead]

... I know this post is three years old, and probably has replies, but I still feel the need to say the narrator is called Brett Thomson... Sadly, the only link I've found between the two, actor-wise, is Grimm and PJ having the same voice actor...

[@ProbablyRv]

It IS Brett Thompson, you can see his name on the end of the credit scene "OBC DOCUMENTARY SPECIAL : WARRIORS AND THE BELKAN WAR Interviewer : Brett Thompson"

[@IslandThunder84]

@johnleejohnson Actually you could say that there were TWO depictions of World War 2. According to a timeline of the series, there was a war known as the Osean Continental war which lasted from 1932-1947. It was a war between Osea, Belka, Sapin, Fato, Gebet and Recta altogether. It was in 1943, that Osea came up with the jet fighter and with it's allies, won the war.

[@johnleejohnson]

@charrito2522 Considering that Belka was modeled after WW2 Germany and Ustio was the first to be invaded by the Belkan 'Blitzkrieg' yes they did use that word in the game, I would say that Ustio was supposed to be like Poland, Czechoslovakia, France and the Rhine, or a combination of all of those regions. I did punch in the coordinates of B7R a while back on Google Earth I think, and it corresponded to a region in real world Poland confirming this theory of mine.

[@asherwiggin6456]

It’s literally Poland Or at least, west Poland

The roots of the war lies in the Brazillian Federal Law review that took place in 2032. Brazil, suffering from economic and policy strife, permitted it's Southwestern territory to seced. And the Republic of São Paulo was born.

[@elbenja0088]

[@Amar7605]

The roots of the war lies in the Chinese Federal Law review that took place in 2028. China, suffering from economic strife in the wake of the COVID pandemic, permitted it's Southwestern territory to secede. And the Republic of Tibet was born. But China's economic troubles did not subside. Meanwhile, taking advantage of the situation, emerging superpower India continued to flourish. Amidst the economic panic, an extreme wing of the Communist Party took power within China, aiming to restore strength and stability to the nation. And on March 25, 2035, with the discovery of natural resources in Tibet, China began to invade its neighbors. It was the beginning of the China War. Unprepared, each country (Nepal, Bhutan, Myanmar, Bangladesh) fell quickly before the might of the legendary Peoples Liberation Air Force. In just a few days, they occupied all territories except for the Himalayan Mountains. In response, the occupied Tibetian government military placed all their hopes on a joint operation between India and the foreign mercenary forces. This, of course, can be found in Amar7605's brain :-)

+netsfan101 Are you so sure about that? India would have more allies than China would. Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, Vietnam, Thailand, Singapore, The Philippines, and others surrounding China would probably love to band together and defeat China. And they may get clandestine intelligence from Russia, the US, France, and the U.K. Even China can't cope with that.

Tutorial of how to make an awesome game intro part I

[@Manunaxho]

Eh... For everyone, I mean, to know the history, I think... Before 1988, Belka had a largest territory, but with the creation of the Replubic of Ustio, Belka lost part of their territory, as result, other nations in the Osean Continent, with the pass of the years, taked more and more territory of Belka, when Osea take more territorry of Belka, Belka began to have economic troubles, as a result of that, the goverment of Belka in 1995 want to take actions in that, and begins to invade...

The roots of the war lie in the Dissolution of the Soviet Union that took place in 1991. Russia, suffering from economic strife, permitted it's western territories to cecede... And the Republic of Ukraine was born. But, Russia's economic troubles did not subside. Meanwhile, taking advantage of the situation, the world superpower America continued to flourish. Amidst the economic panic, a ruthless leader named Vladimir Putin took power within Russia, aiming to restore strenght and stability to the nation. And, on Ferbruary 24th, 2022, with Ukraine leaning further towards NATO and with false claims of neo-nazi persecutions, Russia began to invade its neighbor. It was the begining of the War in Ukraine. Unprepared, the border defenses fell quickly before the might of the legendary Russian Ground Forces. In just a few days they occupied a fourth of the country and reach the gates of the capital city of Kyiv. In response, the beseiged Ukrainian government military placed all their hopes on the intelligence and weapons deliveries from the western democracies. This of course, will be found in any history book.

[@gattonero2915]

The roots of the war lie in the Central Intelligence Agency's operation in Ukraine "Operation Belladona" 1946. Western clowns, suffering from their self-projected flimsy Moral superiority, permitted it's own hypocricy and double standard goes unquestioned... And the Western Hegemony was born. But, Western scumbagf*ckery, arrogance, lies, and hypocricy did not subside. Meanwhile, taking advantage of the situation, the third world continued to flourish. Amidst the economic panic, a moronic westerners who fed in lies and self projection tried to control the narrative And, on the time this stupid comment finally went up, with Ukraine being the infestation of Western power's money laundring center being ruined in shambles after the fall of Soledar, Western Joseph Goebbels-Wannabe commenter began to shill out.

And OMG am I really answering right now ? 😑 Well yeah, that's happening. It's dumb to talk about "monney laundering" schemes, because the corruption in ukraine is widely a Russian fossil fuel monney. It's wired to hear the same bullshit about western hipocrisy since 09/11. But you know, George W.Bush was at least honnest about his ambition to invade Irak ! He lied on the excuse. The days and weeks before the war in Ukraine was such a disgusting pile of cheap deceit. And it's precious to be called a nazi by a full blown antisemit, who thinks dropping thousand of tons of Cold War surplus before it spoiled in warehouses, is remotely comparable to the CIA and the west doing their usual crap to sway the nation's policies.
