Typhoon -TYPE ACE3-

The Typhoon -TYPE ACE3- is a downloadable aircraft in Ace Combat 6: Fires of Liberation. It was released in June 26h 2008 with Pack 09, costing ¤200 MSP at the Xbox Marketplace.

Overview
This particular Typhoon variant, as the name implies is based on the EF-2000E Typhoon II from Ace Combat 3: Electrosphere. It is painted in a dull brown UPEO paint scheme, with a darker shade of brown in the tips of the wings. The UPEO emblem is emblazoned in the left wing and vertical stabilizer, while the code "EC 071" is featured behind the cockpit area.

Speed and defense have been upgraded at the expense of a reduction in mobility, air-to-ground and stability. As with the other TYPE aircraft, the Typhoon suffers a certain handicap to emulate the playing experience of Electrosphere; in this case, the inability to perform high-G turns and the removal of the XMA6 and RCL secondary weapons. On the flipside, however, XLAA capacity has been upgraded from 48 to 72.
