Fuel-Air Explosive Bomb

The Fuel Air Explosion Bomb (abbreviated FAEB) is an air-to-ground weapon featured in most Ace Combat games from Ace Combat 04: Shattered Skies onwards. As evidenced by its name, it is a thermobaric weapon that spreads a highly flammable fuel over the impact area, which is ignited in a massive fireball upon impact.

Ace Combat 04: Shattered Skies
The FAEB is available exclusively to the F-15 ACTIVE for $286,000. The weapon is useful for taking out entire clusters of lightly armored targets, such as AA guns and tanks, since ground targets are present in larger groups than in future games. It's usefulness, however, is offset by the fact that the F-15 ACTIVE is limited to 8 FAEBs.

Ace Combat 5: The Unsung War
It is exclusive to the YA-10B, which carries 14 bombs.

Ace Combat Zero: The Belkan War
The Zero incarnation of the FAEB is no longer bound to a single aircraft. It is one of the weapons available to A-10A, X-29A, F-15S/MTD, Su-37 and ADF-01 FALKEN.
 * ADF-01 FALKEN: x08 bombs, $206,400.
 * A-10A Thunderbolt II: x14 bombs, $19,400.
 * X-29A: x4 bombs, $42,000.
 * F-15S/MTD: x08 bombs. Comes with aircraft.
 * Su-37 Terminator: x08 bombs.

Ace Combat 6: Fires of Liberation
The FAEB in AC6 returns once again as an exclusive weapon of A-10A

Ace Combat X: Skies of Deception
The Fuel-Air Explosive Bomb is first made available with the A-10A Thunderbolt II, which carries 10 bombs for $8,400. It is also one of the weapons compatible with the ADF-01 the YR-302 Fregata, the Su-37 Terminator and X-29A. It's large blast radius helps in missions heavy with ground targets, such as "Striking Point" and "Break In".

Ace Combat: Joint Assault
The FAEB in Ace Combat: Joint Assault is virtually identical to it's Skies of Deception incarnation in regards to compatible aircraft, with the notable exception of the F6F-5 Hellcat.
