The song they were singing was probably the national anthem. Being under occupation, it was probably banned while the Eruseans were there and now they're singing it in celebration.

[@WolfestoneManor]

Fuck, why didn't I think of that.

[@shira_yone]

Ian T what nation though? ISAF is multinational so why did they sing it as well?

[@sargentshadow]

ISAF is basically NATO in the Ace Combat world. the song may not be a national anthem for a single ISAF member state but the ISAF anthem as a whole. For example, the NATO hymn created by Captain André Reichling, conductor of the Luxembourg Military Band in 1989 was adopted by official decree on January 3, 2018 but it was used unofficially during events and meetings of NATO countries as a de facto hymn.

I realize this is a little late, but- the ship crane moving (at 6:45 or so) could be the case, and wouldn't be the first time a shipbuilding crane moved during an attack on a harbor. Shipbuilding cranes are mounted on train tracks (or similar) to move up and down the ship. See the USS Pennsylvania at Pearl Harbor- it was in dry dock, and the crane working on it moved to try to block enemy planes from hitting the ship.

Sly, the U2 is a stealth recce plane. That's why the Erusians couldn't down it - they couldn't find it. And when the map faded out the blue it was showing the area of the continent that could be affected by Megalith, to give some scope of the level of destruction that would be possible.

[@birchtree5884]

The U-2 isn’t stealth

[@SuperGeronimo999]

The US tested a several modifications on the U-2. One was a radar absorbent material called "Wallpaper", which sadly was a thermal insulator. It caused the engines to overheat and resulted in a crash and the death of Robert Sieker in 1957. Another method would have been trapeze. www.coldwar.org/pictures/reconaisance_pictures/u2rainbow.jpg Maybe in Strangereal they have fixed the overheating issue, who knows...

[@donut3702]

U-2 isn't stealth, there wasn't any stealth technology that existed at the time. U-2 is meant to fly at high altitudes and stay out of range of enemy fighters and missiles. The reason it was flying so low was because of engine trouble, like the Safe Return briefing stated

[@thehavoccompany-a3]

Again, the kid holding 13 at gunpoint is MUCH more emotional than not doing it. Not only is Yellow 13 finding out two children who's he befriended have betrayed him with the resistance, but he also seeing that one of them might be willing to kill him after spending so much time together. It's like having your best friend suddenly pull a gun on you and threaten to kill you and saying he only became your friend to betray you. Seeing the kid hold him at gunpoint is much more emotionally devastating for 13.

[@SlyAceZeta]

DeadlyRecon In my opinion, words hurt more than weapons. I saw it as a much more emotional thing when the kid stood down Yellow 13 with nothing but himself and his words, rather than with pointing a gun at him. Again, that's just my opinion, and this video is certainly biased. Cinema Sins is certainly not immune to different opinions, nor am I :P

[@thehavoccompany-a3]

Yeah, words hurt more than weapons up until you take a bullet to the gut lol That level of indescribable pain, both physically and psychologically, tends to be the ultimate example of betrayal :P In all seriousness, it's easy to say things like "words hurt more than weapons" up until the moment someone actually pulls a gun on you. Then fear and anxiety take over, causing you to start looking back on your life questioning your existence and wondering if you could have done things differently. The threat of death is, above all else, the greatest display of hatred. To hate someone so much you not only wish them dead, but also intend to kill them yourself, says more than any words ever could. Even more so when you happen to be close to that person's heart. Furthermore, I also believe silence tends to be worse than words. At least when a person talks, it means they have the will and heart to do so. They at least respect you that much to say something. But silence? Silence means you aren't even worth the breathe. Or it means they know what they are doing is so despicable they can't explain themselves even if they tried. As a person who *personally knows* the pain of silence, that much I am certain of.

6:40 the crane isn't actually moving, you can see the road in the background after a few seconds. It looks like the boom of the crane is moving but it it's just some dark strip of texture

[@Agent1W]

0:53 Well, birds can do some severe damage so Mobius 1 wouldn't be happy anyway if he was close to having engine problems because of them. 1:05 Could just be a bandana. 1:29-1:32 The size of the weapon plant was rather disturbing, to the extent that it would take AIRBORNE ORDINANCE to undo it. If you've seen how big the Stonehenge facility was, I honestly doubt C4 would have done much. A ground invasion would have been worse if Erusea controlled the skies. In terms of cost-effectiveness, I'm inclined to say air raids would be better. 2:09 Ace Combat does use the NATO reporting names for airframes for Strangereal, but that's supposed to tell you on the radio you bagged a Tu-95 in half the syllables. Do take a sin off for radio brevity, Sly. 2:28 That doesn't necessarily meant that EVERYONE had them. Plurality doesn't suggest en masse use here. 2:32 That probably appeals to the realism of understanding heading and distance by landmarks. Also, if you're flying in enemy territory, you might not want to be ogling your radar all the time. 2:39 You're not supposed to be able to pick up enemy airfield radio channels, let alone know who *THEY* are talking to. I'd suggest that would be ATC contacting the base's Command Post, or Command Post contacting some field HQ. 2:57 Depends if they were all confirmed as Mobius 1 kills. Because it would be customary to embellish your actual combat performance. 3:08 There were probably some remaining ISAF controlled pockets nearby and that area wasn't one of them. 3:15 Missions get completed or resolved either way, in success or failure. I think Sky Eye should have said, "A safe return will allow you to keep going on more missions." 3:31 I understand the real thing is far worse on annoying sounds. Imagine having to hear the armed tone of an AIM-9 constantly, despite that you'd be happy you were still breathing in an intense battle. 3:46 It was lost in translation, I guess? 3:56 I guess he was trying to say they're not being so overwhelmed numerically. 3:59 He could have been talking to his wingman, and you weren't supposed to have heard that as the enemy. 4:09 I thought you were going to call it on how dumb that line was and add a sin for it. He's complaining about how it wouldn't be so smart being in enemy territory during a WAR. 4:17 It's a valuable asset. How else do you transport drilled oil en masse on land from the water? 4:32 Except you didn't know *what* manner of help was coming. 4:58 Oil has some long distances to travel on the cheap, that's why. 6:23 Denial, as in "this can't be real". But "overconfidence is a slow and insidious killer". 6:34 It could just be a historic landmark. Maybe you should take the city's official tour sometime, Sly. 7:56 Look, if friend-zoning made the difference between life and death, there's no shame in it. And by the way, they ended up becoming a family(supposedly). You shouldn't have added a sin for that. 10:37 Sometimes the most fulfillment you get from life in general are with those who are the most likened to you in every way. Of course it makes me wonder why Yellow 13 doesn't find something different than being a pilot in a war, which is temporary in the grand scheme of things. 11:06 My eyes have seen some fancy A-10 flying back in my own AF days, but at low speeds like what your speed was at. It's not entirely implausible, particularly for a veteran or ace pilot. 11:43 Tango is phonetic for 'T'. So it's "T-Line", whatever T would signify. 12:49 There's a lot of uninteresting things you have to do in the military anyway. That's just how it is. You don't always get to do the things that might actually be cool to do. 13:05 Economics. Do you really think they're going to use Stonehenge(try to imagine the monthly bill on that behemoth) to bag a couple of civilian planes? 14:28 What's the worst that could happen in complaining to a kid? In the military, you have to watch out how and whom you're complaining. Choosing a kid is astute for someone who can easily get his butt chewed out even harder. 16:52 But are they also responsible for those supply issues? She took a risk--whether she was ordered to or not--and incidentally, got shot down by Mobius 1, which was by the ENEMY and not necessarily because of maintenance neglect. Sometimes in war, you don't get a choice to sit it out if your gear isn't up to snuff. 17:00 It wasn't in cold blood. She was armed and a legal combatant. 18:14 My guess is they were going for emphasized stealth. The slower you fly, the less noise you make, which means ground forces wouldn't be alerted. For AC5's Solitaire mission, you had to take it slow to avoid the detection pockets. 21:32 I guess it was a matter of conscience because they were just youth. 22:56 The whiner only really joined up for the college money... 27:15 No more than all the other Mobiuses being the only real Mobius pilot of the eponymous squadron. Doubtless they were newly initiated rookies. 29:41-30:19 I think you have to remember that back in the early 2000's mass media was not as advanced as it is now. Internet did not completely kill the TV star yet. So in terms of having the encyclopedic information you're looking for, it would be a lot tougher to determine the scoop on everyone. Good luck trying to follow [up] people if there was nothing on cable TV about them, and the Internet was only really getting up off the ground.

The F-4E wasn't carrier capable. It had a tail hook, but the cannon meant that the already nose-heavy aircraft was now too nose-heavy to take off from a carrier deck Also a reason why Navy Phantom pilots sometimes didn't strap on Sparrows into the front fuselage missile wells. This lightened the nose, made taking off easier, and generally made them lighter and better to handle.

"Pilots are responsible for their planes." That would apply to privately owned civilian planes I believe. Military planes and jets are maintained by the ground crew. If a jet had its engine damaged like that, it would've been immediately grounded.

Actually, I think the fact he was planning to use the gun gave it a more emotional theme. Remember, this is a child, not an adult, confronting the idea of killing another man. Without the weapons, the narrator kid is seen as nothing more than an innocent child given a very horrible situation. But that changes when the weapons and his intent to use them is thrown into the mix. It adds much more depth to his character, showing his internal conflict and struggle: Revenge for his family VS Forgiveness and closure.

(Sugestion: do Ace Combat Zero: The Belkan War next).

[@SgtSpecOps1]

Oh! Also: Sin nº88 Minute 19:35 - I dont exactly think it should count as a sin, becouse Cruise Missiles and other heavier Long-Range Ordinance in missile form are programmed to do random evasive maneuvers to not make its trajectorie easy to intercept. But hey, shooting down that thing was annoying as hell, so what do I know?

[@SgtSpecOps1]

And Also: Sin nº115 Minute 24:50 - Humm... I guess that the giant circle coming from Megalith is its operational range (or its range translating its targeting ability),remebering that Megalith is a facillity capable of launching really,REALLY powerfull missile weaponry (besides the interception missiles used for intercepting the Ulisses Fragments, it could theoretically launch, say like... ICBM's?), wich I guess means "YES! YOUR NOT SAFE MOTHER F****R! PREPARE TO FEEL THE RATH OF ERUSIA!" (explaning the map fadding to red again, but then again, i realise that the Erusian Forces have surrendered, so I guess their just trying to cause Chaos in the continent?)

[@SgtSpecOps1]

(Am probably getting annoying at this point, sorry) Sin:121 Minute 26:05 "Except filthy Erusians!" - Thats probably racist... (Just kidding) (P.S Am being a bit nitpicky on your nitpicks I guess ;P )

[@sirilluminarthevaliant2895]

Mobius 3-7. Did one guy just confirm half the squadron

[@Fighterpilot555]

Wait, you can fly above 2000 feet during the Stonehenge Assault? Jesus, I feel like an idiot right now..

[@aliultimate009]

Fighterpilot555 Actually i think it's half right & half wrong because Stonage can lock-on to you if your altitude was in a good range for their aiming range limit X) I say that because i was shot down like that before if my memory serves me right X)

[@cam-a-lot1973]

To be fair...LIKE HELL any of us wanted to test that theory against that scary ass set of rail guns! XD

[@ryzikx]

You can also get shot below 2000 feet, i think. just stay away from where they're aiming.

[@jaypostromboli-jpgamertv-457]

Same here.

[@JaelinBezel]

Besides, it's so much more exciting to dogfight at low altitudes. I still remember one time playing the carrier escort mission in 5 fighting and evading so low to the water that I was making wake in it.

[@meissmart6678]

19:39 “Whoa, what the hell is that?” *Sky Eye gives you the explanation, which was that it was a spectacular explosion* “No explanation?”

3:32 Why are the transports heading North West? Comberth Harbor is behind them! The mission location should've been called "South East of Comberth Harbor"!

A note about the first failed attack to Stonehenge: the aircrafts are the fastes means to launch air attacks when the front is too extended. The first attack occurred at the beggining of the war but apparently try to reach STN via land was to diffucult if not impossibile.

14:41 Pilots have the option to just straight up ignore mechanics, even if the airplane is clearly un-airworthy. She didn’t allow her mechanics to service her aircraft either, choosing basically to get herself killed with FAR 91.3: ‘The pilot in command of an aircraft is directly responsible for, and is the final authority as to, the operation of that aircraft.’

[@allied_forces_310]

I don't see anything wrong with Ace Combat 04, LOL !!!!

[@bigiron2572]

i think the part that the kid wanted to kill yellow 13 would make some sense since he thought that Y13 did it intentionally

[@makotoyuki2199]

Most underrated series ever made...

[@GintaPPE1000]

I'm pretty sure "Right behind you, heads up!" is the pilot calling out to a wingman that you're behind them. It always seems to play in those instances when I use the game, at least. Still sinnable for the ambiguity, I suppose. Also, in the Stonehenge attack, you don't need to stay below 2000 feet for the opening salvo, but once you attack the facility the blast wave from the guns can still swat your plane down. They still do something, but the gunners would rather aim for everyone else despite all the transmissions about "aim for the ribbon."

[@SlyAceZeta]

That's actually a really good explanation for the "Right behind you, heads up!" line, I haven't thought of that before!

[@thepaisleyproject]

Shoulda sinned when the other mobius squadrons appear, saying HAS SCIENCE GONE TOO FAR?

[@rakhafitra8607]

24:58 so what's so special about the Megalith? It's basically a large missile silo.

[@Syluxcatboy]

Great video sly! Also rip yellow 13 who is dead and not coming back.

[@rollacoastaride1937]

there were Harrier jump jets to shoot down, and some in deep silos to bomb, but I wanted to fly one, and I couldn't, why the fuck why?

[@ISAF-Phoenix]

17:22 Q) How did SkyEye know there was a device there? A) The infrared cameras on your aircraft broadcast images directly to your AWACS. SkyEye, watching your video feed closely as you approach the first jammer, can clearly see the Airship Jamming Device shortly before you blow it up. (Sin -1)

[@joshuaxiong8377]

I never knew about the story being a bit better for the international release because of that change, I think that's awesome!

[@WorldOfMinds]

Actually, that dog is wearing a Bandanna. The coloration of Khaki on a Gold retriever is surprisingly deceptive.

[@jpalmer999]

Was heading to the comments to say great video but then I saw ace combat zero and thought well that's another countdown for the stopwatch :D Seriously though great vid. I never even knew that the Japanese story was slightly different. Keep up the great work :)

[@SpeedWarrior93]

I just remembered something. It is a spiritual sequel to Ace Combat 2 as the first and last mission locations are in OPPOSITE order from 2. Ace Combat 4: Start at North Point...End at Twinkle Island Ace Combat 2: End at North Point...Start at Twinkle Island

"Dammit Nagase"

[@DIP_BUH1207]

You know i was suprised that you didnt take a sin off when a Yellows started noticing your atttacking one of them and causing them to smoke. Even another is telling everyone that A Fighter with a Ribbon is putting up a fight and becoming a bigger threat then most of your allies. But then again, a sin would be added for them or Yellow 13 not recognizing you in the Stonehedge Offensive. Since Mobius 1 is the only one with a ribbon throughout the game until his squadron bears the insignia in Megalith.

[@hemlockdripps1086]

best ace combat in the whole series and they haven't made one as good since sadly.

[@JaelinBezel]

13:06 I know all escort missions are supposed to be hated by law, but I love this mission.

[@thorenthal6698]

4 years late, but I do, too! I played this game for a bit as a kid and picked it back up as an adult recently. As of now, I really get how AC4 sells its power fantasy, here. I ended up loving the escort mission because of what it suggests. An entire squadron is sent for this one vulnerable aircraft, and it has but one defender. The crew onboard panics for their lives just before you show what you're made of as Mobius 1 by sweeping every other plane out of the sky; literally kicking all kinds of ass in the face of an immense and imminent threat. We compare Mobius 1 to the Doom Slayer for a reason!

[@ninovalenzuela9682]

i saw sin 66 flash red you better tease us well for zero

[@dorkmax7073]

The messages on Tango Line do that so that they have a buffer to make room for Stonehenge alerts.

[@ImTheBatchMan]

I feel the need to do a sin counter for you. For instance, "Tango Line" most likely refers to, "Target Line", or something similar. "Tango" is NATO phonetic for "T", and military always uses the phonetic when there's a single letter. This one was the final straw before I had to leave.

[@SlyAceZeta]

Please don't blame me for your lack of humor 👍 This was a comedy video made for entertainment and nothing else.

[@ImTheBatchMan]

SlyCooperFan1 There were definitely parts that made me laugh. It's just hard to laugh when you're criticising something when you're wrong.

[@SlyAceZeta]

You're still claiming that this is a video of criticism. Sure, some of the sins are rooted in that, but this is for comedy's sake above all else.

[@ImTheBatchMan]

SlyCooperFan1 Well, what do you expect me to assume when the video is literally called, "Everything Wrong With Ace Combat 04"? All I'm saying is that I didn't appreciate the lack of effort in some of your jokes.

[@migiplayz91]

So Kevin Miller does Additional voices for some of the possible NPC 's. He doesn't do a specific character. Also I believe the initial cause for the war besides Erusia taking control of Stonehenge was the astroids that landed 5 years prior to the story. I believe 5 major astroids wiped out a huge portion of Strangereal and the small fragments continue to pummel the continent. I Believe the raid on Megalith was like the group (A World with no Boundaries) which consists of rouge Erusian soldiers who became terrorists to take revenge against ISAF and Erusia for surrendering.

[@SlyAceZeta]

13 is an unlucky number in English-speaking culture. 4 is an unlucky number in Japanese-speaking culture because it sounds similar to "death". Hence why we're part of the 444th in AC7.

[@HD_555]

@@SlyAceZeta so any time Project Aces mentions the number 4, that implies the fact that we're jinxed!
