Guide on How To Find All Enemy Aces in Ace Combat 7

This video will show you how to find every enemy Ace and what is the best strategy to shooting them down. Each enemy ace shot down will yield a bonus paint scheme and extra points will be added to your score. After all of them are shot down, you will get the 'Birds of Prey' achievement and will unlock the special paint scheme of the X-02S Strike Wyvern.

Clarufications:
For Ace 2 Jester you only need to destroy the TGT CONTROL TOWER.
F-15E Gazelle: You only need to destroy all OIL FACILITIES.

[Lifeislikeadoughnut]

Heads up for mission 8, you don’t have to destroy everything for the ace, you just have to destroy all the oil tanks. Other than that great video!

so... the challenging part of those aces is to make them appear not take them down.... thats disappointing

[kimarykorlumiose]

how to trigger(heh) Kitten's spawn:
let the spirit of Ace Combat fill you, and dive into every tunnel you see

[Blaze]

Brotip: for the mission at 7:30 get the LACM. Besides the large explosive range, the LACM is a ground-hugger and can fly above terrain automatically as long as it's not too steep.

[ngocvun]

For Mission 3, I would recommend using the F-14 with LAAM. Cleared the first wave less than 30 seconds.

[chrisnguyen]

That first ace is Vietnamese for Hoàng Xuân Tài. his name appeared on the roll credits too. And there is easter egg about that Ace from Vietnam War(ace pilot of Vietcong). Ace Combat 7 involved Vietnamese team in the development.

[DoomPhoenix]

Calamity and Tempest are backwards, for those worried about finding the former. The former spawns at 17k points then flees I think. So if you are quick to hunt him down he won't be so far out.

[lubu]

Note on clamity SU57 ace 24.

After obtaining 17K points with more than 3 minute left and Arsenal bird missle comes, i found him heading to combat, it seem if you waited a bit longer he will hang around the Borders but i did killed him at C4

[DRCEQ]

You can find Calamity in mission 19 early enough if you fly to the clouds in the south part of the map. Once you spawn him with 17000 points, he'll fly through the heavy clouds, which makes locking onto him pretty difficult.

I suppose if you waited too long, he'll fly away and wait for you at the border of the map.

[rumblerider]

Just a correction here, you do not need to down ALL the mig 21's in order to spawn JESTER, you only need to destroy all the red ground targets before engaging the migs.

[bricecooper]

few flaws with this video so here is a better explanation for people who want to get all the ace skins
if you got them to spawn another way please list it down below
Mission 1 is correct

Mission 2 is slightly wrong you have to destroy all the TGT control tower at least that is how he spawned for me
Mission 3 correct just keep a level head and if he does not appear just start over and try again
Mission 4 Correct if you want a more in-depth as to who shot mother goose 1 down try only using machine guns to keep the UAVs off of him
Mission 5 is correct at least to how i got him to pop up
Mission 6 correct super easy to fly in the tunnel also if you did not know you can cross the return line just an fyi even the story says it's not for you lol
Mission 7 is correct
Mission 8 very wrong you just take out all OIL FACILITIES
Mission 9 Correct
Mission 10 correct and wrong but when he says you can't let the transport get damaged that is wrong damage is irreverent at least it was for me all you have to do is take the sams down very fast
mission 11 planes 1 and 2 correct hint go for the closer base then swing wide out and fly through the platforms shooting the cores you get both of them at the same time as well as if any planes take off just chase them down and shoot them
mission 12 planes 1 2 and 3 correct just fly under one of the guns and he should pop out, A10's spawn kinda far out just take them out while they are out of range and last just make sure you get everything make bombers and ground targets first then take fighters out while next wave of ground runners and bombers come
Mission 13 correct this one is hard equip missiles with long range tracking and get a very fast plane at least this was the case for me
mission 14 correct fly fast and get to the base just keep the pedal to the metal and dodge the spot lights
Mission 15 for planes 1 and 2 correct it is covered in sams and turrets that shoot down your missiles so you may have to make multiple passes also if you want a special skin that is not an ace take down the Su-30 with only standard missiles not special
Mission 16 correct
Mission 17 correct
Mission 18 correct and wrong take everything out ON THE WAY TO THE CASTLE not everything after you get to the castle at least this is how i got him to spawn
Mission 19 for planes 1 and 2 Correct
there you have it hope this helps some people out with how to get them all good luck again if you found another way to get them to spawn post down below

[StarFoxZX]

Thanks for the guide. Read on Steam that you need to score 10k points before doing the mass driver run in mission 17.
Also, the time limit for the Berkut ace to show up is 3 minutes. I managed to get to the base in less than 2 with the A-10, so my guess is that, as long as you can reach waypoint 2 in less than 1 minute, you're almos guaranteed to spawn the ace without flying at mach 2 through that canyon XD

[MegaMRCHURRO]

The mission 14 ace is a nightmare to spawn lol

[IkusaGT]

IBIS sometimes spawns on the west side of the map.

You only need take care of oil facilities to spawn Gazelle

[colorfulsouls]

I just completed all of the ACES today ;w;
This would have been so good lol

Thanks for helping us out with your knowledge and keep sharing with this great community

[justinl]

Thanks for the info but correct me if I'm wrong as I think you forgot to mention that you can only get the aces to spawn in mission replay & not during the first story playthrough of each mission.

[ihzamahendra]

Also for Calamity, after you kill Tempest.. Head to the south part of the map as fast as you can.. You can caught up Calamity before he reached the red line. I use parts for acceleration and speed, and i caught him not far from the border.
