With the discovery of the Ulysses Asteroids, the world raced to develop a means to counter them. Though many systems were proposed, and many built, only one would engage the asteroid directly. Today, millions owe their lives to the Stonehenge Turret Network.

  • The arsenal bird was supposed to be the pinnacle of superweapon design in strangereal; autonomous, heavily armed, supreme defenses and an onboard squadron to boot. They threw it against a decades-old rusting chemrail cannon, the ancient gun crippled, blinded and running on fumes. Stonehenge merely turned to the sky, used its dying breath to say "fuck you", and promptly annihilated the shielded arsenal bird like a .50 cal through a paper plane. It's gorgeous.

  • As a kid, I remember how hyped I was to finally destroy Stonehenge. However at the time I didn't understand that It was once Usea's savior. Later on when I got older and actually understood the ace combat lore a little more, it made me kinda sad that Stonehenge was used to kill people rather than save them. But then AC7 came along. You can bet "Stonehenge Defensive" was one of favorite missions in all of Ace Combat. It was satisfying seeing what was once a great evil, waking up and rising as a great hero with one final shot.

    • @@michaelandreipalon359 Hell, the Razgriz story can even be inverted for some series villains. The most notable example I've seen of this is Captain Matias Torres. Instead of starting as a demon destroying the land, then coming back to save it as a hero, Torres started out as the Hero of Comberth Harbour, saving his men from Mobius 1, but returned as a demon to try destroy Oured with the Alicorn. You could also argue Pixy also fits this reverse Razgriz story. AC0 radio audio makes note of Pixy's single red wing rather than Cipher's blue wing tips; it may have been the latter drawing watching eyes during sortie, but Pixy himself was also a hero in the eyes of the Allied forces. Then, he disappears, only to return as the Sleeping King of Avalon; the champion of A World With No Boundaries; the demon who'll reset the world to zero. In both cases, true Razgriz stop them. Trigger's Razgriz arc starts with him as Harling's alleged murderer then returning at the hero Three Strikes. Cipher's heroics in the first phase of the Belkan War can be the Razgriz' demon phase, with him downing all the Knights of the Round Table, then he saves the world from Pixy and AWWNB to become Razgriz.

  • Stonehenge from this game is still one of the most fascinating WMDs shown in video games. Its impressive because of its scale, range, and its intended purpose.

    • Stonehenge of all the Ace Combat superweapons to me has always seemed like the the most plausible, not only because of it's design and construction but because of why it was built. Between flying aircraft carriers, force fields, and giant lasers mounted on jets... Somehow a 20 meter railgun designed to shoot down asteroids an entire continent away doesn't seem that unrealistic considering the absolutely cataclysmic event Usea was facing at the time it was built... To me it's the only superweapon in AC that makes me go "if all this happened irl, somebody probably would do that"

  • Just one correction; the Ulysses1994XF04 asteroid was not broken up and scattered by the Earth's atmosphere. (By the time a meteor breaks up in the atmosphere, it's already too close and too late for large fragments to be spread out far and wide around the planet, even if it explodes.) It was broken up and scattered by the Earth's Roche Limit. That's the region of space around a planet/star/black hole/etc. where entering objects will slowly get torn apart because one side feels a stronger pull of gravity than the other. Because this region of space is so large, and because this process of "gravitational shredding" is so slow, fragments of the torn-apart object can become spread very far and wide. It's actually theorized that Saturn's rings were once comets (or maybe even a small moon) that got trapped and torn apart by Saturn's Roche Limit. Otherwise, great video!

    • I was one of those people asking for a ground / tanks Ace Combat perspective. War Stories Anthologies, since Battlefield and CoD are in the crapper. Tanks with a fleshed out story to give something not controlled by the complete bastards WarGaming or Gaijin. The old classic Ace Combat 04 aesthetic as you are put into the fire control officer position to shoot down asteroids [which secretly gives cash bonus for campaign as the capital not destroyed means more supply for you later]. The latter plus Ace Combat Zero morality meter to decide events like enemies deserting to aid you or civilians pushing back against "liberation" and what not. Tactics that take pressure off you as they can deploy and take extra objectives later, create access to special missions, or hinder you. Would be interesting to get stuff thrown at you for collateral from ISAF strikes we don't see normally. "Osean puppet!" spitting would add some greyness to the storyline.

  • If not for the fact that the militaries of Strangereal WOULD shoot people with them, I'd argue that guns like these need to be installed all across the planet. This system can only cover a limited arc, and an asteroid strike could come from any direction. Not mention that you'd probably want overlapping fields of fire in case 1 cannon wouldn't be enough to take out an impactor. Not to mention that even with international rushing of repairs on the original site, they'd probably be at best months out from reactivating the system to full capacity. There's no reason to assume that there won't be more big rocks.

    • Other nations tried, but for obvious reasons, even in the more advanced world of Ace Combat, build Stonehenge was a behemoth of a task, and was barely finished right before the asteroid struck. Other nations like Estovakia tried to build similar turrets, but they only managed 75% of the first cannon before the asteroid struck.
