Ace Combat Zero Assault Records.png

Ace Combat Zero: The Belkan War features 169 unique named aircraft for the player to hunt and shoot down. Many of these named aircraft only appear on a certain Ace Style and have a specific spawn condition. Shooting down a named aircraft will add their entry to the in-game "Assault Records" where players can view more information about the pilot flying the aircraft.

The list below is grouped by mission. Selecting a row will show all information about the named aircraft including its spawn details and the pilot's Assault Records biography. Minor inaccuracies (for example, "Galm Flight" instead of Galm Team) are included verbatim, but major translation errors are corrected and accompanied by a note.

The superscript SP indicates shooting down that named aircraft will unlock the aircraft's Special color.

Footnotes

  1. The English version of Assault Record #046 says "Osean", but the original Japanese text says "Usean". Since Hartmann moved to Erusea, the Japanese version is more accurate.
  2. The English version of Assault Record #047 says "laser", but the original Japanese text says "radar".
  3. The English version of Assault Record #100 says "Arcam Prison", but the original Japanese text says "Arkham County Prison".
  4. Both the English and Japanese versions of Assault Record #109 incorrectly state that Etta Schultheiss bailed out near a V2 bomb site. Schultheiss was shot down in The Stage of Apocalypse, which was in the vicinity of the seven V1 explosions.
  5. The English version of Assault Record #112 says "Silm Mountain", but the original Japanese text says "Mount Schirm". The pilot was shot down during Lying in Deceit, which takes place at Mount Schirm.
  6. Both the English and Japanese versions of Assault Record #117 incorrectly name the Mars operation in The Final Overture as "Milo Operation". Kehl was shot down during the Mars operation, so "Operation Mars" is used here.
  7. Both the English and Japanese versions of Assault Record #144 state that Todd Barry joined the Belkan Air Force at 22. The Assault Records also claim that he is Osean, so this was most likely a mistake intended to refer to the Osean Air Defense Force.
  8. The English version of Assault Record #148 has numerous translation inconsistencies. It omits the mention of the Allied Forces, does not state which country Barry was imprisoned in, and states that Barry returned to Osea in 2002 where he began working as an Osean Air Force advisor. Since his nationality is shown as "Belkan" in both English and Japanese, a translation of the Japanese Assault Record is displayed here instead.
  9. The English version of Assault Record #159 shows the name "Velecky" here, but Wizard 4's last name is "Beletsky".
