Snippets of mission 12: Stonehenge Defensive / Operation Dragon Breath is where a BFG brings down one of the Arsenal Birds in the end, after it's defended against bombers, helicopters and infiltration units resulting in a lot of mayhem in the sky.

I'm starting to get the hang of gun kills as well and in case you wonder why the gun fires that often: I've a dual stage trigger and missiles are bound on the second stage. Ace Combat does not allow to select between guns and missiles. It's only possible to switch between missiles and special ammunition, which I did select at some point in error as well to shoot down some bombers resulting in some spectacular fireballs in the sky 😁

What I did not find out yet is why the cockpit disappears sometimes while firing the missiles. Perhaps it's some default key binding that hides the GUI briefly - it's not a result of the button dedicated to switch views because this one has 3 modes and doesn't automatically come back to the cockpit view 🤔

Played again with my Viture Pro glasses in my old ViperPit that I'm slowly reviving again.

I also installed the gorgeous VF-1 Valkyrie model from NexusMods[1] by https://www.youtube.com/@strikefreedomx2671 replacing the F-14D Super Tomcat. Disney Plus didn't deliver on the Macross promise in 2024 so now I've my own Macross with Blackjack and H********** - I'm happy🤘
