Ace Combat Assault Horizon Trailer Has “OILY SCREEN SO REAL”

I’ve always been more of a fan of watching people play the Ace Combat games than actually playing them myself, but after playing the demo for Assault Horizon (which has reached just over a million downloads) it actually looks pretty damn crazy. Not only do we have the action packed launch trailer for Assault Horizon, which you can view right here, but we also have screenshots of the jets you can get by pre-ording exclusively at Gamestop.

F-15E Strike Eagle

A fighter bomber with the air-to-air combat ability of the F-15C and additional air-to-ground capabilities. Able to be equipped with a diverse array of armaments, including anti-aircraft, ground attack, multi lock-on missiles and aerial bombs, it is capable of dealing with a variety of situations. Called the “Strike Eagle,” though the exterior is almost the same as the F-15C, it provides various ground attack improvements.

F-16F Fighting Falcon

The successor to the F-16C. Various improvements have been made in order to export it outside the United States. Air-to-ground battle capability has been improved by an upgrade to its gun control. Air resistance is controlled by the conformal tank system, which extends flight range and makes it adaptable to any kind of air-to-air or air-to-ground missions. It is called by the same name as the F-16C, “Fighting Falcon.”

F-4E Phantom II

General purpose, extra large, carrier-based fighter. Though turning performance can be a bit problematic because of the large size of the aircraft, it boasts top class speed performance among the older generation model aircrafts, a high level of durability, and has a large amount of space for armaments. Called the “Phantom II,” it is the first aircraft shared by three branches of the U.S. Armed Forces: the Navy, Marines, and Air Force. Fans of ACE COMBAT® in North America can get the F-4E Phantom II aircraft exclusively at GameStop when you pre-order ACE COMBAT ASSAULT HORIZON for the Xbox 360 or PS3 (while supplies last).

FA-18F Super Hornet

Whether it’s air-to-air or air-to-ground, this carrier-based fighter is capable of handling a wide variety of missions. An easy-to-handle aircraft that boasts stable maneuverability at any speed. Equipped with long-range attack weapons, it’s well-suited for preemptive attacks. Nicknamed the “Super Hornet”.

Get ready to take off and get your screen all bloody oily when Ace Combat Assault Horizon releases on the PS3 and 360 on October 11th.
