Chandelier is the final mission in Ace Combat 6: Fires of Liberation. In the mission, Emmeria has discovered the location of the Estovakians crusie missilie attack to be the Chandelier.

Part 1
The mission starts with the player flying over glaciers on the coastline of Sonne Island, the location of the Chandelier. Then, a strange communication appears:


 * Melissa: [STATIC]

It is at this point that the player enters a cutscene. The cutscene shows the remaining Strigon Team members taking off from the Chandelier's runway. After their take-off, the player sees the Chandelier fire one of it's dreaded cruise missilies. After the cutscene, the player must temporarily fight off the Srtigon Team meanwhile Melissa tries to send you data on the Chandelier. After a short interval, another cutscene is shown, showing Garuda Team receiving data on the Chandelier's multiple targets. The Garuda Team rises up to the challenge, and heads towards the Chandelier.
 * Melissa: Can you hear me?
 * Melissa: I'd like to say hello!
 * Melissa: Hello to all Emmerian Air Force pilots in the Northern Sky!
 * Lanner: What the...? Who's voice is that?
 * Melissa: I'm just a civilian. My name's Melissa Herman.
 * GhostEye: I think it's coming from Gracemeria's radio station. Hey, we're in a war zone here!
 * Melissa: ......I don't know a whole lot about war, but.....
 * Melissa: But there's something I need to tell you!
 * Shamrock: We might as well hear what she has to say...
 * Melissa: Please, trust me on this! The Estovakian military...
 * Melissa: ....has that battery. And it can't be destroyed!
 * GhostEye: She might be trying to disrupt our operation, I better contact Gracemeria Base...
 * Shamrock: Wait! Let's hear her out first!
 * Melissa: But thats when its construction was completed...

Part 2
After the first part of the mission, the player must destroy all of the Chandelier's cooling units. These cooling units are shielded by several barriers that cannot be destroyed easily. It will take several missiles to take out these barriers. After these are destroyed, the cooling units are quite easy to destroy
