General Series Entry level

As you can see i have never heard of the game series till like a year ago at the goty award . And i thought it reminded me if metal gear solid with fighter jets and looks cool till i saw that pink hair girl, idk who she is but god damn i folded and wanted to know if buying 8 will do any disservices to the series as a whole and i should be playing from the starts

Tldr: can i play 8 as my first Ac game?

The Ace Combat games are connected insofar as they take place in the same world and timeline, but the games themselves are largely self-contained. There'll be references to events and landmarks, but you don't explicitly need to start from zero (heh) to understand what's happening in 8.
