Easy Mission 01: Charge Assault

The Easy Flight trophy is awarded when you complete Mission 01: Charge Assault in Campaign mode on any difficulty setting. The easiest way to do this is to spend a couple of hours playing multiplayer in order to gain enough MRP (the in-game currency) to purchase the F-15E Strike Eagle which made getting this trophy a lot easier than the starting F-16C Fighting Falcon. Having the F-15E will also make getting the trophies in the first twelve missions easier to get so it is worthwhile taking the time initially to get this plane.

The X-02 Wyvern is one of the most iconic and popular aircraft from the Ace Combat series. In Ace Combat 7: Skies Unknwon you must successfully complete Campaign mode on any difficulty to unlock it under the Aircraft Tree. To purchase the X-02S Strike Wyvern costs 2,000,000 MRP and to have unlocked either the YF-23 Black Widow II, F-22A Raptor, or Su-57. The weapons for the X-02S Strike Wyvern cost 200,000 MRP each which means you will need to pay a total of 2,400,000 MRP for the the X-02S Strike Wyvern which is an upgraded version of the original X-02 Wyvern.

You will be able to quickly change your path in dogfights to get an advantage over the enemy if you perform High-G turns. Remember though that if you stay in a High-G turn for too long your plane will stall out as your speed will rapidly drop during this maneuver.

Use clouds as cover to hide from enemy fire, remember though that passing through them will result in water droplets forming on your canopy which will reduce visibility and lingering too long in the vapours will make the water freeze which will play havoc with your ability to fly effectively.

Once you have successfully completed the game on any difficulty setting you will unlock extra skins in Campaing mode.

A reticle for your machine gun will appear on the screen once you have got close enough to the enemy. The reason it will appear off center is because it's compensating relative to the enemy's trajectory. To deal damage to the enemy you just need to line up the reticle with the target.

Do not bother unlocking other aircraft until you get the F22 Raptor. Focus on getting the F22 Raptor as early as possible by proceeding through the central Aircraft Tree path as it is the best all-round fighter in the game. It has special weapons that once equipped will make all the missions much easier to complete.
