Line 4:
** Weapons Of Mass Destruction. The level starts with you and your wingman flying through a valley to avoid radar detection, taking out all the enemy outposts to prevent alerts from being sent out. You get to the enemy convoy, dispose of it, and receive orders to exit the combat area. As you attempt to escape, more and more planes appear from your rear to try and take you out, and you keep trying to outrun them to make it to the zone line... Which abruptly vanishes as a literal fleet of planes materialize in front of you, cutting off your escape. The next few minutes are spent futilely dodging missiles from no less than fifty enemy planes, unable to lock on to any one of them long enough to get a shot off due to the unending missile barrage. Finally, when the situation seems hopeless, ''every damn plane'' you have ever worked with over the entire game shows up in a [[Big Damn Heroes]] moment, your ally command bar fills to the max, and the biggest and most epic free for all dogfight ever witnessed in Ace Combat history commences.
*** Made even more awesome when you consider that for the entirety of the game, the battlefield is so immense, it's split into several simultaneous missions, which your allies are capable of completing on their own should you be preoccupied elsewhere. This mission just serves to remind you that while you are still a fantastic ace, you aren't a [[One-Man Army]] that can finish the war by yourself, unlike the previous games. Doubles as a [[Crowning Moment of Heartwarming]] at the moment your allies show up.
** There's also "Megalith" from ''[[Ace Combat 04: Shattered Skies]]'' -- you are the Ace of Aces, to the point that {{spoiler|you have a squadron for the first time in the game, it's named after you, and they ''all'' bear the emblem that the Erusean military and [[Degraded Boss|the last incarnation of Yellow Squadron]] fears}}.
*** "You're not gonna believe this, Jean-Louis! ALL of them have ribbon insignias!"
*** "All Mobius craft, follow Mobius One!"
