The idea for those weapons mostly came from existing superweapons, specifically ones where the original form of the plane - X-02 Wyvern - was first released: Ace Combat 04.

• 4QAAM+ takes inspiration from Ace Combat 04's extremely hard-to-dodge QAAMs
• HE Cruise Missile / Mini-ICBM takes inspiration from the very agile and high explosive Missile from Mission 14: Breaking Arrows, and the ICBM from Mission 18: Megalith
• Airburst EML takes inspiration from Stonehenge, which is a big railgun with high-explosive warhead. However, the implementation here is closer to the version from Ace Combat Infinity where it caused damage in an area rather than blanketing the sky above 2000 feet
• Ordnance Suppressor is meant to be a "cheat-ish" tool to stop missile alerts at the cost of having the plane at relatively level flight for a second. Players need to judge if the risk to activate this weapon is worth losing all missiles compared to just dodging or flaring.
