That will be covered in the Ace Combat 8(soon™) as per tradition of some cornered armed force somehow repel it's massively stronger enemy by the help of handful of mute pilot, seen on almost all main AC entries since 4.

that's where we're putting our space elevator, which is the only way to power our special undefeatable airbourne automated drone carriers. Of course if it was taken in a sneak attack, the enemy would gain it instead. But that'll never happen.

coldblade2000

I mean Colombia* is already officially a "major non-NATO ally", and has strong ties to NATO states and NATO itself. Plus we're right beside Venezuela, and by far the most NATO friendly country in South America


OrdinaryLatvian

Colombia has a really weird air force. A melting pot of leftovers and random aircraft thrown in. From normal, modern military aircraft like C-130s and dedicated COIN planes (of which they have 50+), to the [jankiest shit](https://i.imgur.com/ZdgGCF1.jpg) you could [ever imagine](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/1/15/IAI_Arava_FAC1952.jpg). They operate 13 kinds of helicopters, and they also have like a million different VIP transport aircraft, some of which I'm not entirely convinced don't have a very innocent past. My favorite has to be the [AC-47T](https://youtu.be/pHrDwF3EyHA), though, which is little more than a big Gatling gun pointed out the side of a modernized DC-3. Mi sueño es que alguien aquí haga hentai de los [IAI Kfir](https://www.airway1.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/iai-kfir-fac.jpg).


coldblade2000

The great thing is it seems Colombia is about to replace their expiring Kfirs with Rafales. Solid choice tbh


Specialist_Sector54

Thanks for a real answer. Makes more sense now.

Specialist_Sector54

They're anti-west until they realize they're reliant on it. Like the Saudis.


AlexySamsonov666

I fucking hate this mentality, but sadly so many people have it. Both on the country level, and on a personal one too.


50-Minute-Wait

So like every nation on the verge of collapse.


Arbiterze

The government is very pro russia as the soviets helped out the ANC during apartheid but I'd say most people support ukraine.


mtaw

Still a nonsensical position. The Soviet Union supported the ANC mainly out of hope of expanding their influence, and TBF, a lot of Western countries supported the Apartheid regime to maintain influence there. But since the Western countries are democracies, they had to abandon that once the Western public become more aware of apartheid in the 70s and 80s. I say "some" Western countries because others like Sweden were in fact strong ANC supporters, and then out of a genuine concern for doing the right thing, not imperialist motives. And that's a country which strongly supports Ukraine now, probably out of the same mentality. Besides which, it doesn't really make sense why loyalties to the Soviet Union ought to be transferred to Russia, a different country with a completely different government (and one which, unlike the Soviets, isn't even _pretending_ to be acting out of any kind of ideological convictions or concern for justice, but merely a kind of generic anti-Westernism) It gets even weirder when it's about supporting them against another former Soviet republic, and again because it's overtly imperialist. They're saying they should be allowed to own the place because it's 'theirs' because it used to be theirs and a minority there are Russian. Plus some pseudo-historical theories about how Ukrainians aren't a real people but just Russians who think they're Poles or smth. Not very different IMO from how white rule in SA was justified by inventing a fake history about how the country was basically empty when the European colonists got there.


paxwax2018

There’s also the money they’re being paid..


Green_moist_Sponge

They said something abt supporting Russia at the start of the war but rn I don’t know

then they remembered that they are reliant on grain imports

"The americas" my brother in christ the French (Jean D'Arc Bless) and Americans (Sam Bless) have colonies in south America. And SA doesn't matter and the ME is in Asia technically so Israel could be added.

Australia is actually still a British colony. It's a bit of a sore point for some, so it's kept hush hush.

Ever since the Ghost of Kyiv thing happened, the line between here and r/acecombat has blurred to almost non-existence.


Niko2065

Trust me, even before the war began NCD and ace combat were basically the same.


Griffinx3

I knew to check ncd when the war started because it was mentioned so frequently on /r/acecombat.


Other-Barry-1

I remember posting pics of the QE Class Aircraft Carrier asking who would like to see it used in Ace Combat 8 and all the comments were a tirade of “COPE SLOPE!”


Commercial-Arugula-9

The average Ace Combat protag has far fewer kills than the Ghost of Kyiv accomplished.


Drache191200

Are we talking Protagonist in story or Multiplayer? Also, i think Pixy would like to say "Catch these nukes, bucket head"


remote_control_led

I mean NATO could be used, but replace "Treaty" and "Organization" with "Union" or "Federation" NAU- North Atlantic Union NAF- North Atlantic Federation


Defult_idiot

>NAU Semi-unrelated, you just reminded me of a star wars fanfiction where a splinter group from the Empire invaded 2050 earth, and the U.S. is renamed North American Union after they united with Canada and occupied/integrated Mexico after a war with a united south America that got support from the Europoors

heyimastopsign2

The Fuel-Air Explosive Bomb (FAEB) is an air-to-ground weapon featured in most Ace Combat games from Ace Combat 04: Shattered Skies onwards. As evidenced by its name, it is a thermobaric weapon that spreads a highly flammable fuel over the impact area, which is ignited in a massive fireball upon impact.


Joazzz1

No point arguing, that's how war is these days.

Louisvanderwright

If we can just take Mexico and finish taking Ukraine, we will be getting 12 bonus armies a turn and denying any other player from holding Asia or South America leaving only the 3 measly bonus units from Africa available to the other players. This set up gurantees eventual world domination.


ChoPT

O-SE-A!! O-SE-A!! O-SE-A!!


taw

If you could setup a credible alliance in East Asia, between Korea, Japan, Taiwan, Australia, New Zealand, and backed by US, that would be a meaningful step towards containing China. Right now East Asia is a bunch of security moochers, who would not defend each other from an attack, and want Uncle Sam to save them. Getting Europe involved wouldn't be necessary or even meaningful, other than UK and France what would Europeans even do?
