I'm pretty sure that it's no coincidence that the gun used in AC7 to destroy the Arsenal bird is the one that got its power supply hit. It would make sense as it wouldn't have been targetted during AC4 as it was offline and not a threat. That's why there are so many power-supplying trucks outside of it and why it only had one shot.

It's a stupid, stupid oversight, but I can absolutely see some sleep-deprived coder frantically working on the largest air defense system in human history, knowing that basically all civilization on the continent depended on him, just forgetting to account for one particular patch of otherwise empty desert. Even then, hitting that one particular power generator, just as it was about to discharge, is a one-in-a-million catastrophe. Murphey's law still holds: If something CAN go wrong, it WILL go wrong and probably at the worst possible time, in the worst possible way.

[@scifidino5022]

I've got a theory: Stonehenge reloads from the back of the gun and the feeding mechanism is on the back of the cannon in the round disc on which the cannon stands. That's why we see the gun pointing straight up so often, because it needs to move to vertical position to reload.

It killed over 10,000 people, but it may have save many more lives in the process. Before the Belka War, Osea did a lot to screw over Belka; so much so other countries called them out for it.

@@Archris17 Weird hill to die on my guy. A weapon of mass destruction is defined as a weapon that *can* cause harm to a great number of people, doesn't matter whether or not it *does*, just having the potential can classify it as one. Erusea using Stonehenge to maintain air supremacy across over half of the Usean continent by destroying a high number of ISAF aircraft (to the point where the ISAF got pushed back all the way to North Point) with airburst shots would place it firmly in that category. It's like saying the V2 wasn't a weapon of mass destruction because it never killed anyone.

[@Archris17]

@@Mobius_118 No, a weapon of mass destruction has a _very specific_ meaning and a weapon that is incapable of firing at civilian targets does NOT fall under that category. Just because a weapon can kill more than a couple of people at once does NOT make it a WMD. According to the United Nations Office of Disarmament Affairs, a WMD is specifically a nuclear, radiological, chemical or biological weapon with destructive power comparable to an atomic bomb. Airbursting anti-air munitions are very explicitly NOT WMDs and again, could not be used to target civilian targets. By your logic, your everyday artillery shell would count as a WMD because it can kill a hundred or so men at once!

Ace Combat 04 is the BEEESST

[@kevintang2605]

Even though these are hand drawn, they are stunning in detail. Congrats Solutus Eversol!

[@NostalJuegos]

People say "Belka did nothing wrong", but after playing AC04, the correct answer is *ERUSEA DID NOTHING WRONG*

[@mauauauauaua14]

man, your channel is underrated. I learned things which I never heard from other channels

[@JeffreyBarkdull]

Why didn’t Usea send the Refugees to Osea and/or Yuktobania instead of Erusia?

[@TycoonTitian01]

I was very confused in ace combat 7 why half of Eurasian’s capital was half sunk, it all makes sense now

[@skyboy4341]

Outstanding video

[@Aerotrain301]

Absolutely Amazing video man. I love Ace combat and its history. Its so similar to are own..yet different. 👍

[@leonardonunes9650]

So thats why the city in Battle for Farbanti is underwater, AC is so magical

[@vgames1543]

We need a TV series about this Ace Combat History stuff.

[@wherethetatosat]

Stonehenge 2 online! Stonehenge 3 through 7 online! Stonehenge 8 on-offline! Preparations complete, ready f-ooooooh, nooooo.

5:30 Who knew that, with a little music, hand drawn cartoons could be SO dramatic?

[@Darkwings01]

I think the most terrifying thing about this is the fact how easily this could be us. If anything this history could become us down the line since we have almost no known way of dealing with foreign objects entering our atmo. We have even had a few close calls if I am remembering right, but still, its scary to think about what could happen to our planet in this kind of situation.

[@aoki6332]

nah we never got a truly close call the closet of these "close call" was like double the distance of earth and the moon its just that people love sensationalism and saying ASTEROID IN A CLOSE TRAJECTORY TO EARTH sell more than Asteroid passing at 700000Kmh of earth

[@ShahjahanMasood]

I am gonna run a free ad campaign for you now. Which means I will use all my kittens to flood every comment section with your channels name

[@tinytrinket7082]

Damn bro, this is tragic, even if it's fake.

[@thiagomendes4314]

Belo vídeo, obrigado por contar a história de um dos eventos mais importantes da saga Ace Combat, daria um bom anime.

[@TJ-el5tm]

Attention all aircraft! Incoming from Stonehenge confirmed! Descend to 2000 feet!

[@draco_meteor]

That cannon really had it out for Erusea. First it failed to defend Farbanti, then it proved pivotal to halt their invasion of the continent.

[@phantomwraith1984]

And then 20 years later her final gun was used by the Oseans to shoot down the Osean super weapon stolen by the Eruseans

[@zapdragon23]

well that was amazing

[@rooftopexploration1924]

I just play Ace Combat for the actions, and finally see this, man that was sad

[@forrestgumball]

I really appreciate the effort you put into this video! Must be hard doing it all in MS Paint! Good job 👍!

[@45580677]

This is amazing more please so cool

[@jethawk015]

Anyone hear about the incoming asteroid that’s apparently supposed to hit Earth in 2046? We could sure use an STN rn 🤣

[@nathanhough8156]

who needs real history, this is so much better. hoping for a part 3 and more as i have a friend i got to get ace combat and since 7 is his first game, i want him to be able to get all the refrences

[@KlyosXA]

Man... With how they handled "Shin Godzilla" the story of Ulysses Day would fit right up their alley.
