Thanks for the constructive feedback. As I do not own the AAW 2011 edition I'm entirely dependent on page scans from the internet or at Acepedia. I'm only aware of the Newfield Island satellite view image with the original concept art on the top left. Whoops, my apologies! It completely skipped my mind that some of this was also in the 2019 edition...

But regardless, the title cover of "The Graphic Color of the World" - https://acecombat.fandom.com/wiki/Craters - does feature the aforementioned crater (without the AWACS plane) which IMHO therefore establishes it as an official / canon "in-universe" larger crater that is currently still unknown. I will upload the image from AAW 2019 because it shows more of the image (that was trimmed in the AAW 2011 edition).

The problem here is that this is dubious. Even in AAW 2019, it's included in a section on Newfield Island. It's definitely concept art of some kind, but the question is now what kind of mention it warrants on the Ulysses article and what kind of mention (if any) it warrants on the Craters news article.

Wow! I had no idea that the Japanese AAW edition contained that much additional information. Apparently the text features exclusively on the continent of Usea and its locations which seems to suggest that it was written within the context of AC 4. I therefore assume that all the illustrations on page 34 of AAW 2011 show Usean locations and one / some of these probably feature the Skully Islands, although we can't be certain which of the three additional images, exactly. Oh yeah, there's a lot of content in the 2019 edition that sadly got cut, most obviously due to length. And yeah, anything to do with Ulysses was always written in the context of 04 because that's where it was conceptualized.

Regarding the crater in Saint Ark I scanned the full area image from AAW 2019 (for imminent gallery upload) which also provided a helpful annotation of what it is we see on page 25.

I guess with all that information some corresponding Acepedia articles could profit from an update, I'd like to do the one on St. Ark today.

See my first response, I completely forgot that any of this would be in the 2019 edition :P I've fixed your edit and combined your uploads.

One last thing: AAW 2019 calls the Ulysses 1994XF04 asteroid fragment impacts "Ulysses Impact Event" on pages 24 and 60. We know, we've updated most, if not all, articles to reflect that.
