The F-4 is the starting plane and is therefore not very impressive.

Ace Combat is, naturally, famous for its aircraft, which are fully licensed by Namco from their manufacturers. Their equipment, however, is not, and have generic names like XLAA for "Advanced Long Range Air to Air missile".
Note that italicized armaments are special weapons.
The second number listed in the cost is the amount for the additional paint schemes.

| Armament | 650 GUN, 52 MSSL 8 UGBM, 6 NPB |
|---|---|
| Type | Fighter |
| Cost | 76000, 99000 |
The F-4 is the starting plane and is therefore not very impressive. Compared to other aircraft, it does have its strengths - a high missile storage and bombs you'll find effective on the second and third missions of the game. It is otherwise, however, unremarkable.
Official Description: Large carrier-based jet designed to shoot down enemy aircraft and destroy ground targets.

| Armament | 650 GUN, 48 MSSL 12 UGBS, 64 RCL |
|---|---|
| Type | Fighter |
| Cost | 52000, 68000 |
Roughly equivalent to the F-4, the F-5 seems at first glance to be superior to the F-4. While this is true in several senses, several points should be made. Firstly, the F-4 carries additional missiles, letting a novice player be less stingy with them. The F-5 is more manoeuvrable, but can't take as much damage than the F-4. Therefore, if you feel confident in your ability to dodge missiles, the F-5 may be your plane for a while - at least until you upgrade to the F-16.
Official Description: Low cost, lightweight fighter with respectable capability in all areas. Easy to fly and maintain.
