"I lost time and time again..but now I´ve finally won" Victory, even on defeat. The Kestrel, and his captain achieve the final and more important goal to any aircraft carrier. Put the planes in the air. Farewell Kestrel. Good job.

This is one of my absolute favorite cutscenes. The images of seeing the Kestrel, a carrier that has followed us throughout the entire war (and even in Ace Combat Zero), touched my heart the same way Chopper's death did. And Osea's President/Yuktobania's Prime Minister's joint speech really made me get into the mood to blow the shit out of the enemies we were headed for.

"The Journey Home" is the most beautiful song I've ever heard. The OFS Kestrel was a majestic ship. And may Chopper Rest In Peace.

"Look, we launched them off safely. There's my victory. As long as they're in the air I haven't lost, and I know they will succeed." Classic line. and this clip has good sound quality.

first thing that pops up "nothing else comes close" and nothing ever will compare to this game or the series as a whole for that matter

I teared up listening to the speech. God damn it, AC5 well always hold a special place in my heart. A masterpiece.

The Osean and the Yuktobanian already know who is the real enemy. The "Belkan"

Damn... I still get a knot in my throat during the sinking of the Kestrel and the Presidents speech and your unit flying off to battle!! Such a powerful game

Japanese creators can design games such a good storyline. Why our games are always heartless with only blood, shooting, and lots of explosion......

Best cutscene right here!

Salute to your fallen aircraft carrier! May you sunk in peace! Man, that scene made me cry the first time I see it. And the captain and president's speech are just pure awesomeness, along with those planes from both sides. Man, this is the best game ever!

"I've lost time and time again, but now...I've finally won." Beautiful lines, Ace Combat Five arguably has the greatest story of any game. Even though I've seen it half a dozen times, Chopper going down, and Hamilton's betrayal always tugs at my emotions, bringing me to sadness and anger respectively. But, peace was restored to the land, and that is what is important.

I may be ACE04's biggest fan but this is one of my absolute favorite moments in the franchise. Peak Ace Combat right here.

I'm not crying your crying played this game religiously on my ps2 then the first ps3 came out I replayed through it again. Still have my ps2 with the game

is it weird that I also saluted when the Kestrel sank? And where can I find this version of "The Journey Home" in the key it was in? It sounds better than the other version in my opinion.

i cant hold the tears in, my ship, the ship ive had considered my home and my shelter, was destroyd, and im watching it sink, in front of my eyes, unable to change anything

Bro, I'm not crying.. this cutscene is the best yet of the Ace Combat Franchise 😫😫

@Izkzmach exactly. in a way, the Ace Combat 5 and Zero plots tied together was sorta like World War II (Zero) and the Cold War (5). In a way, it's sorta the history of the real struggle between the USSR and USA, just condensed to like 15 years and using fictional countries. Ace Combat has been, is, and will remain to have the best storylines and quotes.

this game deserve remake real life Movie

The time when games had no stupid agendas

@PinoyLabanFighter198 That is due to the Missiles exploding in the ship blowing out much of the bottom, they enter the ship and explode so fast you cannot see it all happen. so once you get a impact it critically wounds the ship.

Oh god, the feels.

The only game where Osea (America) and Yuktobania (Russia) aren't fought to each other for no good reason.

+RuneMasterKnight weapons today are considerably more lethal though than then. It only takes one anti ship missile to cripple a ship. It also took one well placed bomb to cripple a Essex class as well. Now sinking, might be a different story. Anti Ship missiles if they hit at the water line, ya they can bring ships down, it's like getting hit by a battleship.

A bit late, but look up the armoring of pretty much any modern ship and compare it to a WW2 equivalent. Weapons have gotten lethal enough that armoring a ship against them is so impractical it simply isn't done. No modern ship could withstand a beating like WW2 ships, but no WW2-era ship could withstand a modern attack.
