I think it also shows how much trust the other countries had in Osea that they allowed the G7 summit to be on the Arkbird. I mean, launching your country leaders literally into space to have a meeting takes balls and trust to go through with that
Valkyrie pilot: reaching JU-990 docking port, opening docking port JU-990 pilot: opening ventral docking port, permission to dock? High Command: High Command to JU-990, permission granted Valkyrie: *docks with JU-990, and begins supplying the JU-990 with supplies* JU-990 Pilot: alright, we're going to wait a while
This is just incredible. Strangereal is my favorite fictional world of all time and the fact that there are people dedicated to making videos on it just brings a tear to eye. This community is awoseme
I love how the strangereal cold war is just a friendly dick measuring contest of the two sides trying to one up each other. Then the pseudo Germans get a bit upset and blitz everyone, and the 2 superpowers are like: **MANSHAKE** "Let's do this, brother!" I also like country relationships in Strangereal, where basically NOT-Russia and NOT-America are best of friends after the belkan war. At least until the grey men started causing shit
I grew up playing AC5 and AC0 over and over. Years go by and I find this channel who’s illustrations mimic the cutscenes to a perfect T. Memories come flooding back and then I hear “Razgriz, launch!” And boy oh boy do I wanna break out the ps2 again. Excellent video and you just earned another subscriber!
Hello pilots! If you really liked this lore video of the Arkbird, please share the video with the Ace Combat community. I put a lot work into making this video the best one. Also don’t be afraid to leave a comment on what you thought and what you would like to see next. Update: Net-Zone uploaded the first fan-made ost New Frontier on his channel. th-cam.com/video/zFuUiMTEL3M/w-d-xo.html Sol out!
Loved the history of the Arkbird. I take it you're going to do the SOLG down the road? Oh, I'm still looking forward to your dossier on Larry Foulke, aka Pixy, as well as PJ. I'm going to miss that guy...
Buddy, you put so much into your videos, there isn't anything to say that your efforts dont say for themselves. Regardless, thank you for your contributions to this community.
Damn, the thumbnail, and the new stonehenge animation sequence really revitalized this video for me. Good job Mr. Sol, glad to see your animatios getting better everytime
SOLG was likely launched by several rockets and assembled in space (like IRL space stations), while Arcbird was probably launched from the water. Not sure if actually has enough fuel to get into orbit on its own tho. Could be some kind of assisted launch
The SOLG was launched with rockets and assembled in space similar to IRL space stations and the Arkbird was launched Via Mass driver (probably was modified to support its weight) And for the record the arsenal bird was launched from the mass driver at tyler island supported with rocket boosters
Dude I just found your channel. You explained so many things I didn’t realize, for 15 years about this game. Great illustration. You are the champ! Subbed!
That ark bird was a symbol of hope but the reason why they had to shoot it down was bc the razgriz knew that they were not what they thought they were... But the SOLG was caple of going into space like the ark bird so they knew that they had to bring both simfaxi and hirimfaxi down bc they were the only 2 that couldn't fire that high only the ballistic missle can hit up to 5,000 ft... They built that SOLG to use against the anemy but they decided to use that against them to try to win the war... ik that on the ACE COMBAT SKY'S UNKNOWN they built an arsanal bird just like the ark bird but the arsenal bird can protect it's self not the ark bird and+ not only that but the arsanal bird can be able to launch about 10-20 missles at once...
Man...the quality has improved a lot from the last videos! °^° i'm super glad thatyou make this kind of videos on your own! :D Would be cool one day to see a video about another war (maybe the continental or the circum-pacific war :D) or a video about a nation,just to make people know more about a country and its famous military forces or geography/culture/cities! :D Great job and as AWACS Sky Eye would say: >
Literally everything in Strange real is Belka’s fault, I wouldn’t be surprised if the reason Ulysses was on course with earth was because of some Belkian witchcraft involving magnets to pull the metals in the asteroid down.
Damm, it makes me wish that the earth had an Arkbird like craft…instead of clearing asteroid fragments, it could help to clear up some of the Space junk in orbit
I have a feeling that the story director for Ace Combat 5 read the Tom Clancy book, The Sum of All Fears. Because the story feels heavily driven by its influence in the early 2000s.
Imagine some boss rush mode where the player has to face off against each of the superweapons throughout the series one after another. Or some kind of master mode where the player has to face off against all of them at once.
Oh man this takes me back! Ace Combat 4 and 5 were awesome on PS2...I loved them! And now I am a real world fighter pilot! My dream job. It's hard though...obviously. But I'm so grateful and stoked. I always noticed how the roll rate was different between 4 and 5. And the jets in 4 would just fly level while inverted but in 5 they were slightly more realistic in that they would require serious nose down input to stay level while inverted. But the roll rate was slower in 5. But yea neither is realistic in any way haha. But that's why it's fun! Man a Super Hornet or Raptor with the AMRAAM equivalents in that one level in the snowstorm over the mountains? You could let off 4 AMRAAMS at once and get 4 kills. That was fun.
In the beginning of the video i was waiting for: after the "Passing checkpoint 3" LUL Very nice video with beautiful pictures and even includes the SOLG my favorite superweapon because i like Satellite Cannons. But the Nugget fall was missing at the Scinfaxi battle. LUL Nevertheless RIP ex president Harling and Nuggets in the Scinfaxi mission. o7
The SSTO shown in the video, since it was used for both the Arkbird and the S.O.L.G., the Union of Imperial States of America (known as U.I.S.A.), began construction of a large, SSTO aircraft, thus, the SDM-76 SSTO was born, the SDM-76 was a large aircraft that weighs a total of 7600 tons, with a maximum takeoff weight of 14,760 tons, with its 12 M-121 Hybrid Engines, it can reach low orbit from ground in 21 minutes, can go from standstill to 60 miles per hour within 23.5 seconds, the U.I.S.A had planned to build 5 more until the Belkan War began
That was AMAZING you did it again sol Thats another lore video done Whats next (other than the belkan war vid) SOLG ? That video was a special one for me since AC5 was the first game that I’ve ever finished Thank you!
So this question is posed to not only the channel’s team, but to all AC fans as well. Here goes: “How do you pronounce Strangereal?” Me personally i have yet to hear any official way, but I always pronounced it as “Strange-re-al” and was wondering if i was alone or not in this in regards to it being such a strange word to work. Just a random thing I know but im an inquisitive type of guy. Thanks for reading, stay safe out there.
That was audio I recorded and extracted from the first mission play through on Ace Combat Fans video of Ace Combat Infinity. So super old method that I still use :)
Nagase: the ark bird is a symbol of hope
Belka: hippitty hoppitty it’s now our property
Belka again: it's free real estate
And now , she must try to shoot it down
@@Blueflag04 Nagase: aw, COM'ON!
Also Nagase: Harling will build another one for us
Erusea (and Belka also probably): hippitty hoppitty it’s now our property
Edge: im in attack position, awaiting orders.
Strangereal nation: builds a super weapon to save the world from the Ulysses asteroid
Erusea, Belka and Estovakia: *Hand rubbing*
Literally every single one of them.
Le happy belkan scientist
Belkan Scientists: **Happiness Noises**
At least Estovakia showed restraint.
Also Leasath.
"Ave Belka" = Strangereal "Hail Hydra" confirmed
"They beat us in one war, we'll start 2 more in its place"
I think its heartwarming to realize that Belka and Erusea made good friends in the end. That's my theory, anyways.
“Ave Belka”
“Hail Hydra”
Captain America, Ace Combat Civil War
Git the avengers and shield helo caerer and ncc 1701 enterprise and hiydra doomed
Ave Belka
I think it also shows how much trust the other countries had in Osea that they allowed the G7 summit to be on the Arkbird. I mean, launching your country leaders literally into space to have a meeting takes balls and trust to go through with that
Small wonder why Erusea started kicking off with Osea when they started building the Space Elevator.
@@RicardoD957 The Grey Men.
Space is good meeting ground because no one owns it.
@@chriskopp1361 yeah
Especially considering they are all in the same SSTO
Osea: iTs nOt a wAePoN oF wARz!
Osea again: * modded the arkbird with lazorz *
(Erusea rolls eyes)
Osea: But muh peas full perperzes!
That's just how it is
ISAF: superweapon?! What's that again?
Osea forever. Now lets glass Eursea and annex Belka.
Dr. Samuel Hayden commenting on the Arkbird: "That is a defensive weapon, not a nuclear delivery system."
Earth: makes ISS with rocket that land like planes
Strangereal: *inhales*
Valkyrie pilot: reaching JU-990 docking port, opening docking port
JU-990 pilot: opening ventral docking port, permission to dock?
High Command: High Command to JU-990, permission granted
Valkyrie: *docks with JU-990, and begins supplying the JU-990 with supplies*
JU-990 Pilot: alright, we're going to wait a while
Blaze: hey Arkbird guess what.
Arkbird: what?
Blaze: *VIBE CHECK*
btw great video solutus
I just love how greatly the Stonehenge railgun is animated at 4:25 (and love that camera angle)
Ouroboros I think it was based off of AC7’s cutscene of the weapon being fired.

What I find interesting about the ace combat universe is that it mirrors our universe in some ways.
the upgrade in quality is amazing
This is completely false. We all know that Grendel Squadron destroyed the Ark Bird

Are you being serious rn?

Loved the history of the Arkbird. I take it you're going to do the SOLG down the road?
Oh, I'm still looking forward to your dossier on Larry Foulke, aka Pixy, as well as PJ. I'm going to miss that guy...
Awesome
It is the best one yet mate, keep up the great work!
history of indigo or the conflicts they were in would be nice, but i don't know if there'd be enough material for that
Very informative
Loved the "Ave, Belka" scenes of Bella grey men spies. This is straight up "Hail, Hydra" vibes and I love it! Dude you are killing it.
9:59 AVE BELKA!
Great job, mate ❤️
"...it, too, was destroyed..." by the elite Grendel squadron who, after, flew back home straight to Nordennavic! DUN DUN DUUUUUUN!!
Buddy, you put so much into your videos, there isn't anything to say that your efforts dont say for themselves. Regardless, thank you for your contributions to this community.
Strangely enough both the Arkbird and the Arsenal Bird have the same type of supply unit held underneath
They are both Osean, so it would make sense that they have things in common
Wow you made this renders and animation for a niche TH-cam video,respect man
Damn, the thumbnail, and the new stonehenge animation sequence really revitalized this video for me. Good job Mr. Sol, glad to see your animatios getting better everytime
ooh, animations!
fancy.
also, love the work. keep it up!
edit: that chibi-looking Arkbird at 3:37 is adorable
I think Arkbird and Elsa of Xenosaga a bit similar th-cam.com/video/BFdZDaHdHdw/w-d-xo.html
Great work buddy, I enjoyed this one!!
Thank you! Your fan made OSTs fit perfectly with the scenes.
Are you ever going to upload the tracks you made for this video, Net-Zone?
@@tinyboxtim6663 I have to ask Solutus Eversol First.
If i get the green light then i will post them for ya guys : )
2:36 *_Ronald Reagan would like your location_*
3:03 Oh look! The Scinfaxi is smiling!
I always wonder...
How did Osea launch SOLG and Arkbird into the space?
SOLG was likely launched by several rockets and assembled in space (like IRL space stations), while Arcbird was probably launched from the water. Not sure if actually has enough fuel to get into orbit on its own tho. Could be some kind of assisted launch
@@tipoima bassat mass driver might have been able to send arkbirds modules into space in pieces
@@Kubadaniels You don't really *do* that tho. I can't imagine a spaceplane being modular.
@@tipoima it engines and laser systems looks like were added later
The SOLG was launched with rockets and assembled in space similar to IRL space stations and the Arkbird was launched Via Mass driver (probably was modified to support its weight)
And for the record the arsenal bird was launched from the mass driver at tyler island supported with rocket boosters
Man, this video made me cry. Man, just made relive my childhood. You deserve so much more
Ah thank you :)
A new Strangereal history video is always something interesting to watch.
Dude I just found your channel. You explained so many things I didn’t realize, for 15 years about this game. Great illustration. You are the champ! Subbed!
>YES
The pinnacle of wacky Ace Combat tech
Your drawings have improved dramatically, that’s awesome!
The quality of the art on this video is insane
love this illustrative style
hopefully you carry on progressing with your channel m8, really good work
This is your best video yet! You did a great job covering my favourite Strangereal super-weapon.

Yes! Beautifully rendered pictures... Amazing job Sol!
Strategic Defense Initiative? Did the base this on The Star Wars program in the 80s
Wow! I never noticed the similarity. That would make sense, as Osea is Strangereal's USA.
That’s the official name of Star Wars lmao
Amazing Work
Incredible Addition Bringing Life to This Universe
Beautiful Art
Thank You
Yeessssss
Thx Sol for uploading this video....
excellent job solutus! i hope kono sees and likes this!
Just found your channel and watched all your videos. Subbed too. Keep doing what you're doing.
You're kind of like "Strangereal Oversimplified."
Man...the quality has improved a lot from the last videos! °^° i'm super glad thatyou make this kind of videos on your own! :D
Would be cool one day to see a video about another war (maybe the continental or the circum-pacific war :D) or a video about a nation,just to make people know more about a country and its famous military forces or geography/culture/cities! :D
Great job and as AWACS Sky Eye would say: >
Your video's quality is only going up, keep up the good work man
I can't be the only one who sees a little face on the front of the scinfaxi at 3:04
Great video, shared it with my acecombat friends.
This documentary is amazing!I like Arkbird
Literally everything in Strange real is Belka’s fault, I wouldn’t be surprised if the reason Ulysses was on course with earth was because of some Belkian witchcraft involving magnets to pull the metals in the asteroid down.
Very well done Solutus, really worth the wait
THIS IS SO WELL DONE DUDE!
4:26
*FIRE!*
4:27
*Hit, dammit!*
Love the tiny stonehenge gun on the desk.
These videos are amazing good job! Also I like the improvement of the visuals.
One of the best ace combat videos
Almost 3K subs.... keep it up!!!
Obviously a lot of effort being put in explaining and animating
Damm, it makes me wish that the earth had an Arkbird like craft…instead of clearing asteroid fragments, it could help to clear up some of the Space junk in orbit
These are awesome. Keep it up.
When you blow up the ssto transport but the. It explodes blue in the clouds
Wait they used the same resupply system for arsenal bird
can't wait to see the Arkbird PSM
love these Strangereal history videos :D
Arkbird attempts to drop nuke on a city, its a Salvation
Thanks again for doing the arkbird. Loved the video. Maybe do one for the arsenal bird?
Excellent video, can't wait for moar !
I have a feeling that the story director for Ace Combat 5 read the Tom Clancy book, The Sum of All Fears. Because the story feels heavily driven by its influence in the early 2000s.
Since DLC6 for AC7 just came out, can you do a video on the Alicorn?
MyNamesFurii it’s going to take awhile :p
@@SolutusEversol Well, the more time it takes, the better the video's gonna be. So take ur time bud. ;)
Imagine some boss rush mode where the player has to face off against each of the superweapons throughout the series one after another. Or some kind of master mode where the player has to face off against all of them at once.
This channel is like Military history visualized for AC, the only thing missing is the funky German accent.

Subbed .. wow what a quality !
Looks like the plane in ac3 that neucom had del Clarkson's flight was in
Ok but Stonehenge irl would be pretty fucking useful
The ark bird was completed in a few years? Damn. In my city, they’ve been building a metro station for 10+ years…
Looks a hell of a lot like an Arsenal Bird.
Finally!! Home run content 💪🏼
Scinfaxi all smiling in drydock. Last tike it was happy

All I want to know is what happened to *Leasath* after *Ace Combat Skies of Deception.*
UAVs, a Laser system, damn this thing was like a proto Arsenal Bird.
