The amount of power the F4 had, especially for a 1960s fighter, is insane. The fact that it kept its maneuverability even more so. The Tiger might be light but I doubt it could out climb even a fully loaded Phantom.
@@benhardsatrio8222 On my.... I don't know how many times I've watched this now.... viewing.... I noticed that both pilots were pushing their planes to the absolute limit. The Tiger may not have been able to climb with the Phantom, but had M1 not gotten the kill there, he'd have been a sitting duck since such a stall would've basically caused his J79s to choke. He still had enough power to spin the gun for a burst, and he got the kill... but notice he had to remain perfectly level for a moment after that... those engines needed a re-light so he could get home.
@@Tank50usAround 2:35-2:37 you can actually see the nozzle move as Mobius 1 finished pivoting his nose down, so I don’t think those J79s flamed out back then. I think the pilot doing the sequence actually cut throttle to idle coming down from the climb to prevent any asymmetric thrust from spinning the aircraft or throwing off his aim, and only applied minimal thrust afterwards as he’s in nose down attitude and is already gaining speed just from gravity + minimal thrust, at least enough to point the nose where it needs to be to take the kill shot.
@@Tank50usAlso, notice that Mobius 1 stalled out at almost the same time as the F-5. Goes to show how air combat is also a duel of luck and calculated risks.
Thanks Andrew! This mission was the beginning for me. I traded the cool pens with fake fish swimming in some blue oil and water inside of it for my friends copy of AC04 at a bus stop on a rainy dark morning sometime around 2002 or 2003. I remember sneaking a view of the box art from my backpack whenever I got the chance. If only I knew how it would change my life !
Thank you sir! Glad you enjoyed it, and more so that it brings you and others back to such a top-tier game and time of our lives, when the tube TV hummed and tommorow seemed like ages away. Have a nice week!
Ace Combat 4 was my first ever Ace Combat game, I still remember to this day the first mission and how it captured my attention. This video really hit the nostalgia memories and all the fun I had playing the game. Thank you for making videos like these and for the hard work you put into them!
Another great video. Much higher details than before Especially showing more nature shots, the inside of the enemy craft and how they break up. Nice use of the background dialogue for the RIO in the F4 and also the F4's strength in vertical climbs. Though the worker in front of the explosion did seem a little off like it was green screened. Though that could just be me.
Thanks Gavin! I appreciate the feedback on both ends. I had trouble tracking the motion during the explosion shake, so the worker is indeed slightly off-pace. You've got a good eye! With each one I get better, so hopefully in the future I will spend a bit more time tightning up stuff like that. Cheers!
@@Nassault You definitely deserve the praise for the aforementioned details, like the sound of the hydraulics moving to open the spoilers/ailerons at 1:17 and them struggling to stay open is beautiful! Also have to congratulate you on the storyboarding. I wrote a comment on that already so I'll spare you that verbosity a second time lol. For the worker at 1:06, maybe, in a separate project, greenscreen him separately, render that clip, stick it back into the main project's timeline, and then shake the clip itself with him in it? My editing software has horrible motion tracking algorithms so I have to come up with workarounds like this constantly.
Far better/more realistic air combat choreography than almost any big budget movie, and with better cinematography to boot. Excellent all around a normal.
This mission is hard-coded into my memory so hard - AC04 was my very first PS2 game (and that Duck Hunt in the intro is probably the first video game I've ever played!). It really brings back the memories, very very fond and precious ones at that. I've been watching your videos for a long time but this one is special - thank you for this.
absolutely incredible work. You really showed off the details on heatblur's F-4 module. It looks so damn good. I really digged that maneuver the F-5 did.
Every video You do has this feeling... It's that feeling when the story really takes ahold of You,when each launch of a Fox-2 is felt on Your bones. I thank You again for giving me a shiver Nassault,and of course,Ace Combat or not.. I'm happy to fly under Your wings.
Your best work yet! This may be short, but it leaned in heavily to a legitimate dogfight, both pilots using their aircrafts' advantage. Genuine suspense after the missile at 2:05 doesn't land, since everything was on that missile connecting and an extended dogfight would put the Phantom at a disadvantage. You've genuinely positioned the two planes with the fight beginning to go the other way and asked the audience "what now?" and that's brilliant. The F-5 stalling out and its compressors letting out a big puff of smoke, both its missiles spent, is just icing on the cake - it's the calculated answer, "go up", in the most dramatic way possible. Great sound design this time around, killer attention to detail on the specialties of both aircraft. The evolution to here (Sitting Ducks, Diapason, Package Q) from earlier, missile-heavy works is insane. I'm invested in the protagonist, rocks are flying, and the tree has never seemed taller.
The attention to detail is mindblowing! Cant even imagine how many man hours go into each video. Your videos are awesome especially the AC04 ones, may that game live forever!
You can tell Nassault have been really improving far forward by seeing the dogfight between Mobius 1 and Wang. That was superb. Keep it up man, and thank you!
4 was the first game i ever picked out for myself as a kid. This mission is practically seared into my memory. Incredible job. Also you gotta post that Mobius 1 skin on the user files man, I have a mighty need
holy crap i saw your comment and your name/pfp seemed familiar as hell, turns out we have a mutual friend on steam lmfaoooo but that aside, I agree! Nassault uploads are always an escape haha
I’m honestly filled with nostalgia right now, this was the first game, the first mission, that made me passionate about aviation and the military as a whole. The art you make really hits home for me. Thanks for the video and may we see you in the skies again!!
WOW! Nassault you didn't need to go this hard on this video. Super damn impressive work! What a fantastic debut for the HB F-4E in your content too! It's an honour to help in a small way towards this and I had a smile seeing the credits.
This is awesome! Great job as always! I wasn’t able to go the military pilot route but recently got my private pilots certificate. Ace Combat played the biggest role in this passion. Thanks Nassault!
I grew up playing this game on the PS2. And in my imagination as a child, this is how I always imagine came looked to me at the time 20 years later hearing the sounds the music. The voices really brings me back and highlights how awesome of an experience I had going up with this. Your edits are amazing man. Don’t let a soul tell you otherwise.
Amazing! I always love seeing you add an ace to challenge Mobius and put him on the ropes, it definitely adds to the skills of Mobius and the persistence of the Eruseans!
Nassault, im out of words. I see all you videos and this one is one more of your magestic tallent, seriously. How in the hell you do such bodies animations like 0:45 , and the music, sound effects, camera angles. Youre such talented man, and with this videos you made my best 12 minutes of the day (ive seen in 3 times) . I just want to thank you and please continue doing this artworks. You make all ace combat fans such a nostalgic combined with masterpiece video...Thank you for continiusly rip off the boundaries of DCS cinematics ❤❤❤👏🏼💪🏼🤟🏼
This brought back that cherished Saturday evening back in 2003 my dad bought me a ps2, he bought ace combat 4 because we both loved aviation and this mission was it.
There’s no words that describe how good this is. This genuinely makes Ace Combat realistic instead of the arcade like tone and appearance we’re used to and I fucking love it so much.
This is incredibly good. The shots with the birds, especially the transition and the one with the bomber crashing into the ocean, were incredible! And the soundtrack going in the background too, just perfect! Ace Combat 4 content is my favorite and this is another absolute banger. That F-4 Mobius 1 skin is one of my favorite aircraft liveries ever as well. Love seeing it featured here!
Fucking Cinematic masterpeice as always! Flawless animation, cinematography and editing. Project Aces should remake these games and hire you to make the trailers :D
great minds think alike it seems, because after I built my first PC a year and a half ago, the first thing I did was install PCSX2 and fire up AC04. It was also the first game I played on my Steam Deck as well
Incredibly well done as always!! I love the little popups, just like old times. This mission was an excellent choice too. It's got one of my favorite tracks in the game. I got a job working with drones in September, it's my first career job. I had the "Sitting Duck" track playing in my car on the way over for my first day.
Man this is great! AC4 and this mission were what kickstarted my passion and love for the AC series, it means so much to me and I'm sure it does as well to others. Keep up the good work!
Another legendary cinematic! It's been awesome to see you improving bit by bit as well (though I love all your cinematics regardless) -- your style captures this intimate visceral feel in the details and I can't get enough of it 😍This is what I show to my friends when they ask what Ace Combat is like!
Phantastic Video all around. I love the F-4 Phantom II, and I love Ace Combat. What's better than that? A DCS CINEMATIC MADE BY NASSAULT TO COMBINE ALL OPH THEM! Keep up the good work, because this content is just simply amazing!
Lo and behold, as I am thinking about Nassault's wonderful cinematography, I am blessed with another of his creations. The world truly is a large coincidence
When the world needed him most.... He returned for more Ace Combat videos! Thanks for your content, literally it's the closest we have to an Ace Combat movie.
Hell yea. This game is single handedly responsible for me becoming a military pilot.
Thank you for your service 🫡🫡🫡🫡🫡
Shit man I signed up as a 2A, still love what I do though
@@e-train765 just a job with a cool uniform and some danger, but thanks for your support
What's your callsign
@eternalx360 I was an Army Aviator. We just went by unit call signs followed by a number. I had nicknames assigned to me lol
>
CLICKED THIS SO FAST I BROKE THE SOUND BARRIER
2:25 playing to the Phantom's strengths by going vertical, fantastic!
The amount of power the F4 had, especially for a 1960s fighter, is insane. The fact that it kept its maneuverability even more so. The Tiger might be light but I doubt it could out climb even a fully loaded Phantom.
@@krisgordon3116Certainly not after pissing its energy with that pirouette maneuver, I think

The mission the truly brought Ace Combat to life.
The sheltering wings of the protector. This dogfight was intense
Once again you've pulled another one out of the hat!

@@Nassault That's such a singular way of discovering the franchise, quite vivid! Great stuff man!
and so begins the legend of Mobius 1
今回も最高でした！ありがとうございます！
こちらこそありがとうございました ! !
I'm a simple pilot, I see Nassault upload I like and share.
Cheers Vamp!!
シリーズ初のPS2リリースで、初めてこのゲームを起動して一番最初のミッション張り子の基地をプレイした時、鳥肌が立ったのを覚えています。この素晴らしいリメイク動画であの頃の感動を再び思い出しました。日本人としてエースコンバットを誇りに思います。今回はありがとうございました。
New Nassault AC4 upload, rejoice!
Once again, Nassault delivers.
📬🎞
Heatblurs detail on the phantom makes this oh so much better omg
I’ll never not like and love these AC04 remakes. What a wonderful nostalgia trip. Exceptionally done, can’t wait for the next one
Thank you sir! Glad you enjoyed it, and more so that it brings you and others back to such a top-tier game and time of our lives, when the tube TV hummed and tommorow seemed like ages away. Have a nice week!
BABE WAKE UP, NASSAULT JUST POSTED
Hi meep
Hi meep

this guy needs to be noticed by some big names
エスココ２から始めて０４始めた時のグラフィックの向上以上の感動でした！見れたことに感謝です！
F-4のエンジン出力を活かしたトップガン張りの起動、最高でした！
「君のコールサインはメビウス1だ」この時から空戦が好きになった
The point where it all started, all of those voice lines are permanently engrained in my mind.
Awesome animation as always!
I am still holding out hope for Gracemeria.
す…凄すぎる
当時夢中になってプレイしていた自分は鳥肌が止まりませんでした。
本当にありがとうございます。
You cooked with that dogfight
This mission is hard-coded into my memory so hard - AC04 was my very first PS2 game (and that Duck Hunt in the intro is probably the first video game I've ever played!). It really brings back the memories, very very fond and precious ones at that. I've been watching your videos for a long time but this one is special - thank you for this.
Babe wake up. New Ace Combat 04 DCS lore dropped.
It's a honor to be bested by the blue ribbon. Everybody wang chung tonight. Great video man!
It sure is. Wang was the unfortunate ace who would face Mobius first...no warning of just how good he is! Cheers Shino, good seeing you here!
“I cant climb any higher stall warning stall warning” that was good
Nothing like waking up in the morning and watching a new Nassault video with my coffee.
Wonderful work once more Nassault!
First mission of Holy Trinity with that ISAF F4, still nice present for SkyEye!
absolutely incredible work. You really showed off the details on heatblur's F-4 module. It looks so damn good. I really digged that maneuver the F-5 did.
Still love that this over 20 year old game is still getting videos made about it. “ I have so far to go”
Right man? I can't describe how it feels that these games I hold so dear live on decades later.
Every video You do has this feeling...
It's that feeling when the story really takes ahold of You,when each launch of a Fox-2 is felt on Your bones.
I thank You again for giving me a shiver Nassault,and of course,Ace Combat or not.. I'm happy to fly under Your wings.

Pure art as always. If they ever make an ace combat movie I hope they come to you lol
your occasional use of gta is very creative. especially the work done to skin everything properly
Today is my birthday, a Nassault video sure would be nice!
The attention to detail is mindblowing! Cant even imagine how many man hours go into each video. Your videos are awesome especially the AC04 ones, may that game live forever!
You can tell Nassault have been really improving far forward by seeing the dogfight between Mobius 1 and Wang. That was superb. Keep it up man, and thank you!
Loving how the cinematography improves with each iteration. Keep it up Nassault, hope you nail a big one soon.
いや凄い…！お見事な作品です！ありがとうございます！
4 was the first game i ever picked out for myself as a kid. This mission is practically seared into my memory. Incredible job.
Also you gotta post that Mobius 1 skin on the user files man, I have a mighty need
I see Nassault video, I click Nassault video.
Mobius One shot down a Bear!
Its always a good day when nassault uploads a new video!
Dude, no joke, got teary eyed with this one
I truly love this game, thank you so much
The breakdown into guitar solo from Sitting Duck is still legendary.
The cinematography and dogfight were damn tight. Definitely a significant improvement from your Blockade video. Amazing. Just Amazing.
consistent quality as always, genuine perfection, i honestly would dig to see an entire movie by you
holy crap i saw your comment and your name/pfp seemed familiar as hell, turns out we have a mutual friend on steam lmfaoooo

Nassault i love your videos
Keep up the good work 🙏
I've been an AC fan since the ps1
This video is stunning! Gorgeous work Nassault!
The mission that started my Ace Combat journey all those years ago. You did it justice
This is awesome! Great job as always! I wasn’t able to go the military pilot route but recently got my private pilots certificate. Ace Combat played the biggest role in this passion. Thanks Nassault!

That dogfight was MAGNIFICENT
Amazing! I always love seeing you add an ace to challenge Mobius and put him on the ropes, it definitely adds to the skills of Mobius and the persistence of the Eruseans!
Those maneuvers in that dogfight. Just beautiful.
The very first mission of Ace Combat I ever played. So good to see you remake this.

And goddamn this song rips. One of my favorites in the whole Ace Combat series
This was awesome work once again. Good Job!
Cheers Billy! Shout out to you for offering some help early in production with the Reshade! You are a legend.
Anytime buddy👍

great minds think alike it seems, because after I built my first PC a year and a half ago, the first thing I did was install PCSX2 and fire up AC04. It was also the first game I played on my Steam Deck as well
Every time an ace shows up in a Nassault video it’s like Christmas come early
編集技術とカメラワークが最高すぎる！

中学生の時に兄と折半してps2を買い、初めてプレイしたのがこのAC4。最初のミッションがこれでした。衝撃的な画質と音質と音楽でした。金がなくて安めのサラウンドシステムを自宅に組んで、それでも爆発音とかは当時の自分としては十分でした。MDコンポの入力端子にPS2の音源コードをつないでbgmを録音したのも最高の思い出です。
When the world needed him most.... He returned for more Ace Combat videos! Thanks for your content, literally it's the closest we have to an Ace Combat movie.

When the chorus appeared I got goosebumps, fantastic video.
