First Flight is the fourth mission of Ace Combat 5: The Unsung War.

History

Yuktobania noticed the importance of Sand Island Air Force Base for Ossea's defense, so it launched an offensive to destroy the base. Many Yuktobaninan B-1B Lancer bombers escorted by many squadron were detected and Sand Island scrambled all it's jets as quickly as possible. During the batlle, the new leader of Wardog squadron, Ford, was aproaching the island but couldn't land because of the circumstances. As wardog didn't have a leader, Blaze took the lead once more and Wardog engaged and destroyed the first wave. later in the battle, Hans Grimm, a replacement pilot that was helping the mechanicals in the hangars before the air raid, decided to takeoff using Bartlett's spare plane and joing wardog squadron. During his preparations for takeoff, The other wardog planes protected him from above. The 4 membres cleared the next wave and Ford argued that he would land anyway because of his fuel but while landing, he was shot down and killed by the last wave of Yuke bombers and fighters. Wardog finally shot down the last hostiles aircrafts and the air raid finished.

Trivia

  • This was the first mission in the game to introduce "look around" cutscenes, takeoff and landing.
  • During the mission, Ossean Air force planes can be heard in the radio. they can also be seen on the cutscene while the player is on the ground preparing for takeoff, but Oseea wouldn't be able to deploy any airplanes but wardog, as Sand island hadn't any other squadron and Aircrafts taking off from the mainland couldn't get to Sand Island that fast.
