Ace Combat 7‘s Arsenal Bird, formally known within the game as the Aerial Arsenal Ship, is an absolutely massive air dominance powerhouse that players have to square off with to different extents throughout the game. It leverages a combination of drones and medium-range air-to-air missiles to control the airspace it occupies, thanks in no small part to a very fictional shield the platform can generate to protect itself from attack. Ace Combat 7‘s Arsenal Bird The electric-prop-driven flying wing stretches a mind-boggling 3,600 feet across. That’s about the same as 21 of America’s flying wing bombers, the B-2 Spirit, or 16 of America’s largest cargo aircraft, the C-5M Super Galaxy.

The Air Force currently flies 235 aging F-15C/Ds that were in line to either be decommissioned or upgraded. Instead of spending money on those, the Air Force will simply buy newer models. Boeing has been selling different versions of the plane to countries like Kuwait and South Korea, rolling out newer models as time went on.
