Ace Combat: Assault Horizon is the latest installment in the popular Ace Combat arcade flight simulator franchise, under development by Project ACES and due to be published by Namco Bandai in 2011 on the PS3 and Xbox 360. Like the previous game, Joint Assault, it is set in the real world rather than the earlier games' "Strangereal" world. Currently, a playable demo showing two levels is available on Xbox Live and the Playstation Network; the majority of screenshots below are captures from this demo.
The following weapons appear in the upcoming video game Ace Combat: Assault Horizon:
CETME Rifle
In one trailer, a soldier is seen armed with a CETME rifle.
Generic Rifles
Soldiers in the helicopter demo mission are armed with very low-detail smallarms, making it impossible to determine make or model; all that can really be said is the insurgent weapon looks vaguely AK-ish and the American weapon vaguely M4-ish.
FIM-92 Stinger
Enemy "SAM" soldiers seem to be armed with very low-detail FIM-92A Stinger launchers.
Type 69 RPG
As with the Stinger, the Type 69 RPG used by insurgents seems to be designed more to cast an RPG-like shadow than to be accurate in detail, but the weapon is clearly held with one hand rested above the tube rather than on a second handgrip, meaning it is not an RPG-7. These weapons still sound a lock-on tone when fired, but appear to be unguided, simply travelling in a straight line.
GE M134 Minigun
The GE M134 Minigun appears in the game door-mounted on MH-60L Blackhawk helicopters. It should be noted that this is the first game in the Ace Combat franchise to feature helicopters as playable aircraft.
DShK heavy machine gun
The DShK heavy machine gun can be seen in the demo mounted on technical trucks and a T-55 tank.
KVPT & PKT Machine Guns
In the helicopter demo mission, the player character's helicopter is attacked by a number of BDRM-2 armoured scout cars (called "APCs" in-game), armed with turrets mounting a KVPT 14.5mm heavy machine gun and a coaxial PKT machine gun.
M61 Vulcan
The M61 Vulcan appears in the game as a secondary weapon on several playable fighters, including the F-14D Super Tomcat, F-4E Phantom, F-16C Fighting Falcon, Mitsubishi F-2A, F/A-18E & F Super Hornet, F-15C Eagle, F-15E Strike Eagle, and F-22A Raptor.
M230 Chain Gun
The M230 Chain Gun is mounted on American AH-64D Apache Longbow helicopters.
Yakushev-Borzov Yak-B
In the helicopter demo level, the player has to face three Hind-D helicopters armed with missiles and chin-mounted Yakushev-Borzov Yak-B four-barrel gatling guns.
ZU-23-2
In some missions, the player will be engaged by enemies manning ZU-23-2 anti-aircraft guns.
2A38M Autocannon
In one trailer, a soldier is seen standing in front of a row of 2S6M "Tunguska" self-propelled AA systems, armed with missiles and twin 2A38M autocannons.
