My hot take right now is that Ace Combat isn’t and has never been a 1:1 representation of real-world politics or history (except for Assault Horizon, but it was bad so who cares,) but instead is an exploration of politics and philosophical questions on the nature of war mixed with a deep fascination on machines that often verge on and act in a way that is completely fantastical. It tries to convey its lessons and its themes not through the events of the greater war, but through the interplay of characters swept up in the greater conflict, who are inevitably characters surrounding the principle protagonists and antagonists, all ace pilots.

What I’m saying is, Ace Combat is and always has been deeply political- and antiwar- but also loves the Really Cool Machines that do the war. Ace Combat is a mecha anime.

Ace Combat is Jet Plane Gundam, and is subject to the same misrepresentations as the latter.

Insane to me how there is an Ace Combat character that can more or less be described as nuclear Jerma that also looks like him
