* [[Hope Spot]]: At the end of Mission 20, the Federation has signed a ceasefire with Cascadia and given up on trying to crush the independence forces. It looks like peace is finally at hand. {{spoiler|Then Crimson One suddenly returns in a prototype superfighter and burns Presidia to the ground with a barrage of cordium missiles.}} Cue Mission 21 and the [[Final Boss]]. |

** The [[Final Boss]] superplane leaves everything from AC in the dust agility-wise and gains special weapons as it [[Turns Red]] rather than merely swapping them out. It starts with [[Macross Missile Massacre]]s like the CFA-44 Nosferatu, adds railguns, and then airburst missiles like the {{spoiler|ADFX-01 Morgan}}. |
