I wanted to see Arsenal Birds again but this time for multiplayer in Ace Combat 8 not a single player because we are already defeated them in main campaign of AC7.
Not only this allowed players and their allied support to attack them but also we can defend Arsenal Bird against another Arsenal bird with their package nerfed including drones act more like our real-life drones not overpowered in AC7.
What about those dieselpunk airplanes or battleship airships in the skies.
These things were terrifying at the first playthrough! but the more you play the game, the more fun it is to take them down.
Shame that, as usual for Strangereal, something that was designed with a great and benefitial idea in mind ended up just being turned into a weapon of war because of (unhinged) politics, but hey, if that didn't happened as often as it does, we wouldn't have these wonderful games.
Is this a GAME, or a SHOW??
imagine being a mechanic needing to be flown to one of these to fix something
Osea loves their birds
If I had a nickel for every bird themed advanced aircraft the Oseans had that were hijacked. I'd have three nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's hilarious how it happened thrice.
and to think the mastermind behind all this was a jpg of a dog
After 5 years
The Lockheed Mart drone boomerang is finally on space dock
Could you look at War of The Worlds Tripods

Good one bro.
The Arsenal bird is interesting version of "flying aircraft carrier", wich answers the most problematic questions about the design:
1) propulsion and power/fuel – solution picked is sufficient, although nuclear power might be better (number of smaller nuclear generators onboard, wich can be switched for newly fueled (or completely different principle) power module of the same shape – say fusion would be discovered in a decade after lift of, and can be utilized when needed).
2) how to take off with aircraft much bigger than all runways on the world (only "better"-
-more advantageous to the machine and users–solution i can think off is VTOL concept).3) how to replenish the equipment/ammunition, wich can not be produced "indefinetly" midflight
4) how to connect/park/stack the fighter-drones on the mother/plane, …
4)a) altough IF the fighter-drones are connected SIDEWAYS (i.e. turned one side up, one side down), the wing could be twice (or in minimum one third more than) the original number…
Me personally, would introduce one design feature, that might be of help with the "self repair" part, especially of the engines and plane surface – If the engines are housed in detachable streemlined pylons, wich can move on the surface of the airplane, you can simply "disconnect" whole engine, transport it to the repair facility, and after being repaired transport it back to the bird (wich would "reshuffle" the engine pods again, to gain optimal thrust and weight distribution with changed number of engines onboard. I mean – it is impossible with engine using fuel (because the fuel lines would mean extreme failure point), but when you need only supply electricity to the engine, it can be perfectly supplied during moving ON the superstructure (and locked to it befor it starts to proppel the plane). And the same system could be utilized for
b) smaller repair bots (shaped to have extremely small airdrag) moving on fixed grid of rails situated OUTSIDE (on top of) the mothership, ment to cutt off the dammaged segment, transport modular replacement parts to the dammaged area and repair the dammages by reconnecting the newly replaced segment to the whole. Same robots could be used to do smaller repairs of dammaged fighter-drones, basically OUTSIDE the mother/plane.
c) said "surface train carts" can be used for small local sensor clusters and/or point defense lasers, wich would MOVE on the surface of the mothership, to maximize the sensor clenliness and/or firepower in needed direction.
Do the CDV Roosevelt from Project Wingman Frontline 59 next.
I just love huge impractical eggs in one basket war machines. Wiping the floor with everything before Inevitably being destroyed by overwhelming numbers.
Nice ludicrous0 anime superweapon you have there Strangreal, be a shame if a mute in a superplane who has no blood were to blow it up…
But fellas not forgot still trigger a war criminal for bombing that refugee camp
Cold man 35
And that folks is why you don't have your superweapons run on autopilot.
My favorite thing about Ace Combat is it doesnt even pretend to be realistic. Its wild and silly and thats why its so great
I never realized how kerbal the Arsenal birds' launch process was!
So if the birds had been manned, the entire Lighthouse War would likely not have happened at all.
Nice another video
killzone isa cruiser.
Nice Video.
Since you covered the Arsenal Bird, could you maybe do a breakdown of the "Agaion" from Ace Combat 6 in the future ??
Any one noticed that in the ISAF national anthem has the lyrics liberty and justice wounder if thats how they got there names
Interesting, I thought Ace Combat was a realistic series, but had such beasts
Rectenna? It nearly killed em!
"Only a total madman could bring down the arsenal bird"
I mean… technically thats what happened. Trigger definetly is a madman
Some times I forget how silly Ace Combat is with their "Sci" Fi
Stick with trigger and you’ll make it
Well that is very cool concept
There's one strategy that's proven 100% successful at taking down an Arsenal Bird: Follow Trigger.
And It was all because of Belka.
It's always because of Belka.
Sorry, meant to say "North Osea Grunder Industries" of course.
This thing reminds me of the Lockheed CL-1201 one of my favorite concepts from cold war era engineers. I'd honestly be surprised if the game designers didn't take some inspiration from the plans.
The Railgun wouldn't need to penetrate the Energy Shield…
It was mentioned earlier in the video that the shield is not kept active all the time and is only energized when an incoming attack is detected…which means as long as the Arsenal Bird doesn't know it's under attack, the shield is down and it was also mentioned it takes a minute or so to charge the generators and raise the shield…given how fast a Railgun round flies, it will hit the bird before it even realizes it's under attack and if that round is large, fast and accurate enough, it will destroy the Arsenal Bird before it can activate the shield by destroying the Microwave Power Receiver that powers the entire Arsenal Bird and it's Shield…
If I was planning the attack, I'd have a minimum of 2 Railguns, each would be aimed at 1 Arsenal Bird and both would fire simultaneously so one bird isn't warned of the attack by the destruction of the other bird and raises it's shield before I can shoot it…that first shot would destroy the Power Receiver, preventing the shield from being powered up and also shutting the engines down so I don't need to fire any more shots since the Arsenal Birds will now be forced to glide and no aircraft of that size can stay airborne for long before crashing to the ground (or water depending on where it was in it's orbit when shot)…the fact I wouldn't need to take a second shot means the chances of anyone figuring out where I was when I took my first shot (and carpet bombing the area with the still functioning combat drones, the Arsenal Birds may be doomed to destruction at that point, but are still MORE than dangerous enough to take out their killers before that final death) is highly unlikely…tracking weapons fire back to the launcher is very difficult with only one shot taken…
If I could arrange for more than 2 Railguns, then the additional guns would shoot at the weapons storage pods brought up by the resupply shuttles to hopefully cause a detonation of either the drone missile magazine and/or drone fuel bunker which would tear the Arsenal Bird apart and cause it to crash (in MANY pieces) before being able to launch any drones…
2 Railguns are the minimum needed to kill both Arsenal Birds, more would simply speed up the process…
Have you ever done/ thought of doing star citizen ships? im a fan of the game and your channel and would love to hear your opinion on some of them
Have you seen (world trigger) anime? I think you will like it
I love Ace Combat games, silly storylines, amazing graphics and music, blasting hundreds of enemies in the newest or classic or futuristic aircraft… Love it
Is that what the space elevator was called? i legit thought the war was over a actual lighthouse.
