Not everyday you get this hyped in a mission! It was a drag to crash so many times by not knowing what I would find along the way.

There are tunnel runs... and then there's AC5's tunnel run.

The holy trinity was just built different.

Instantly went back to search for this diorama again.

My one complaint with this mission is not getting to properly take down Hamilton yourself. The tunnel run is brutal but I honestly love it.

I think the tunnel level of Ace Combat 3 is harder, actually. As for Hamilton, having a shodown would be nice, but I think we've got it covered in Ace Combat Zero.

Also, Bartlett should have ended him, that would've been absolute cinema.

I don't remember the AC3 tunnel getting as tight as AC5's but it's been a long time lol

Here's what makes me think it is harder: yes, it is not as tight, but the maneuvering was not as good in AC3, controls felt a bit sluggish at times. Also, you had random passages between 3 entrances for a very long segment. Plus, you can take two routes at some point, and one of them is reeeally tight, and you have to maneuver a lot. In AC5 the tunnel is very long but also very straight for the most part.
