I noticed that when you kill the other Yellows, they fall to the Earth, but when you kill the last Yellow (Yellow 13), it just disintegrates. Falls in line with the narrator, who says that Yellow 13 never returned to Earth.
It might just be random. I think I saw a few yellows just blow up and vanish too. If it happens every time then that's a bit of a bummer because my headcanon was Yellow 13 survived, (ejected or whatever) and simply ran off, hence why "We never found the body." some speculate Mihaly in Ace Combat 7 might be Yellow 13. (Or Cipher, or even that Mihael guy in the fake yellow squadron in Megalith.) Heck there's even a floppy disk or something in the trailer that says something like Tester Mihaly Version 13. Other people suspect him to be Pixy or just plain outright someone new.
Dat air jousting I still think this is the best boss battle in the entire franchise. The buildup for Yellow 13 and Aquila Squadron is excellent, the challenge is definitely there, and you can really feel the ramp up in difficulty when you get to the final Yellow, who I believe is then automatically assigned a more difficult AI to emulate Yellow 13
I just feel like there was something innacurate about that Cobra. It's supposed to make your aircraft stall on purpose, and in that high angle of attack it should be slowing down from drag, thus making that Yellow fighter go to Mobius' 6 o'clock. Unless the F-22 was accelerating at ludicrous speed, it couldn't catch up to the enemy going behing him. Just a theory though.
Ramash440 Just correcting myself, I meant to say "Unless the F-22 was dramatically slowing down". If it was going too fats it would obviously overshoot it. Godamnit I shouldn't be writing comments at midnight.
Amar7605 Actually, the maneuver is quite sound. The reason it didn't work was because Mobius 1 was rapidly decelerating. Had he been going standard speed, the Su-37 would've dropped behind Mobius 1 and slotted onto his six, and begin engaging him. The whole point of the maneuver is to bleed speed and make your opponent go past you, allowing for you to get on their tail (which wouldn't work if the guy you're trying to evade is decelerating). The Cobra can only be pulled off by a few aircraft, the Su-37 and F-22 being two of them.
Amar7605 You have to remember Ace combat is Thousands of miles away from having any sim like qualities. So the cobra isnt gonna be the same as the real cobra
+Mobius395 Another fundamental problem with it however is that old air-to-air adage, Speed=Life. Some aircrafts like you said can do it because of their vector thrusting capabilities, but then when you do get behind him, what are you going to do? The faster you go, the faster your missiles will travel. So if you fire, your missiles at this point, they will fire at a low velocity, which will make them easily evaded. You are flying too slow to try and accelerate and catch up to engage properly from behind. It's just a big bummer when an obvious counter to this move is to simply accelerate to gain space and turn. haha :/
Yellow Squadron was way more menacing than sol squadron ever was. If it wasn't for Mobius 1 weakening Erusea's best forces years before, Trigger never would've stood a chance!
Farbanti looks WAY COOLER in Ace Combat 04 than it ever did in Ace Combat 7. Wish they hadn't changed it. The way the crater near the submerged district is ominously looming just under the water's surface is incredibly memorable and striking.
Personally I think changing it is fine, it's only like 15 years between the games in-universe so seeing that they actually changed the city is a positive thing.
I decided to play a little bit of this game, since haven't done that in about 9 months or something. I found out that I had stoped playing in the middle of an Ace difficulty playthrough and took my chances with this mission. After shooting down the Yellows, it came down to Me vs Yellow 13, what followed was a 4 minute dogfight of me trying to go head-on, then taking some distance, climbing and trying to get a small lead on him, just what I needed. In the end, I was flying extremely close to him (5 through 9 feet at best), trying to gun him down. It was extremely satisfying to finally get my trigger on him long enough to destroy him, an experience more intense than anything Assault Horizon could trown at me. Truly one of the best games I've ever played.
The Holy trinity has this draw to it no matter what. Sure 6 is okay and 7 is amazing but I don't want play those two over and over. When I want to play Ace Combat I turn to 4/5/0.
@@Mobius118 actually was found out with regards to the books I think. Princess Rosa actually isn't erusean but actually Osean. Her family had immigrated to the country of Osea but when the royal family restored to power and there had been a nasty car crash that had taken all the members of the royal family, it was found that her family in Osea was next in the blood line so her father assumed the thrown and she was then put in school in erusea where she made friends with the older girl that was mihalys daughter thus the tie in in AC7. So actually the members of family you see in AC4 actually end up perishing before AC7. So sad but I think its interesting.
19:51 A girl and a VTOL Helicopter? Girl. VTOL Helicopter. That VTOL is a Helicopter that got shot down by the fighter jet in the Ace Combat 7 Skies Unknown trailer.
Most likely because i had to do something so i paused the game and edited out the pause when it was still recording, and it looks like i did a bad job at editing it out. Shit this uploaded in 2012 i don't even remember yesterday sometimes.
La IA aliada te ayuda incluso con los amarillos un balance perfecto en el juego no son molestos como en AC5, ni inútiles como en el ACAH , un juego con una banda sonora genial y el mejor duelo aéreo de toda la saga , con gráficos buenos a pesar que el juego tiene mas de 13 años es muy superior a esa porquería de ACAH en calidad de historia, banda sonora, y jugabilidad AC4 es el mejor !!!!!

Mihaly was Yellow 13's instructor, as specified in "Aces at War"
"And Mobius 1...an end to the war would be a nice birthday gift as well."
Why, you selfish, little...
Bitch?
Also, 14 years later..
Dat air jousting

I agree! Honestly I can't get over how good it is.
19:04 This is why the Cobra maneuver is impractical in air-to-air combat.

I fight this mission, just to bring AWACS the best birthday present.
am i the only one who liked to land the planes when returning to base or carrier?
me too
I like landing and taking off as well.
I loved this game choice
Yes, but mostly because it reminded me of Top Gun for NES.

this is my favorite mission and the soundtrack is awesome too (:
One of the best things about this game was the communication during missions, like AWACS saying those things in the start of this mission.
Then, 14 years later on the same day...

AC 4.5 and zero is still fantastic these days... Even with outdated graphics it's still very beautiful visually

hmm... at 19:51
It could be possible that the woman and her daughter was...
Rosa Cossette D'Elise' younger self and her mother
It's highly possible, AC4 takes place in 2004 while AC7 is gonna take place in 2019 so 15 years plus her age i don't see why not
Blaze1337
Did Bandai thought of this back so long?
I personally love that idea

@@TheOfficial007 in ace combat 7 she says she was born in Farbanti, she is definitely erusean
What sucks is that all the Yellow planes are marked as "Yellow". You have no way of knowing which is 13.
Exactly, I never knew I killed Yellow 13
my fav mission in the game
God, I miss playing this game...
5:21
Probably my favorite line in the game
Damn, I miss this game
The body and 2 women they found in the chopper was the remains and family of the highest ranked General in the Eurusian Armed Forces.
Gosh! First seconds of the mission are so dope
damn, forgot how good the yellows were
sky eye's mother should be very proud
I found a good chunk of this game a bit of the repetitive side, but the encounters with Yellow Squadron were easily the best part of AC4.
10:46 why does he sounds like he's gonna crack up?
Possibly nervousness, if it were real. It does sound like he's going to laugh,though.
+Neko Tsubasa It's because that missile even coming close to Mobius 1 is a joke.
This was much better than the Farbanti mission in Ace Combat 7
Yellow 13
Yellow 12
Yellow 9
Yellow ?
Yellow ?
What other yellow fighters appear in this mission?... Does anyone know?
Yellow 13 dislikes this
+Grim “Death” Reaper So does Yellow 4 now.
Naw, Yellow 13 is more respectable than that. Must be the belkans.
all that red....that's what I remember....getting nailed
Holy shit! That submerged municipal area of Farbanti! It got wrecked by an Ulysses asteroid? O_O
Ah what a game
19:51 A girl and a VTOL Helicopter? Girl. VTOL Helicopter. That VTOL is a Helicopter that got shot down by the fighter jet in the Ace Combat 7 Skies Unknown trailer.
19:51 Princess Rosa Cossette D'elise?
Amar7605
You may have discovered her origins going back three games.
Thats a maneuver called the Puchcivs Cobra
I think i used some Russian jets in some of the other AC games not to sure tho
Like if you come after play Ace Combat's 7 Farbanti mission!
You need to stop flying like Patrick Reed.
A fun thing to do with a Russian jet, use a Su-27 against the Morgan in the final mission in Ace Combat Zero, on Ace difficulty :P.
Tealdragon204 Remember me? I did that challenge where I take on the yellow squadron in an f4. It was a rush.
Pugachev, please Pugachev Kobra.
any reason you paused the game before bombing the battleship?
Most likely because i had to do something so i paused the game and edited out the pause when it was still recording, and it looks like i did a bad job at editing it out. Shit this uploaded in 2012 i don't even remember yesterday sometimes.
When you gotta take a piss...
@@Amar7605 This needs more likes.
The yellows sure do stall a lot.
WHERE'S A FUCKING PS STORE OR A HD RELEASE WHEN YOU NEED IT?

Uhhhhh... What?
,: 1
You got hit by a missile.........wow.....
whynot-tomorrow? No ones the best
Washington soon
I beat those yellows faster with the F-14.
That don't prevent you from spelling correctly, sry.
im not Russian, sry
commooooooooooooooooon ... you dint use russian jets??
I've always been confused as to why his voice is so different when he says "Leave the choppers to the others"...
