I never understood why PA never gave the English VA's any credit. They're the primary voices for this series. Even taking priority over the Japanese VAs. The teaser trailer was all in English, the First proper trailer was in English, (Pretty much all the first trailers for Ace Combat games have been in English). Ace Combat 4 has ONLY English. They didn't even have a Japanese cast for that game. I just found it weird that they never included them
The only Ace Combat games that i did know they credited English voice actors are the PSP installments (Ace Combat X and Joint Assault) and of course, Assault Horizon (Assault Horizon was a union work)
Super cool to see this getting done! I think I've found one of the missing VAs.
I'm fairly certain Imari Williams (@ImariSpeaks on Twitter) is David's VA. I first noticed the similarity in their voices when playing Halo: Infinite, where he voices a character named Spartan Sorel in the audio logs (according to the Halo wiki, he's in 7 of them), and thought, "hey, that sounds like David!", just using a deeper tone to the voice.
Awesome! Hopefully you hear from him! I'm glad my "hey, wait a minute..." hunch and personal search into this might help with this. I've been following the progress on the Discord (I'm on there as @Frogblast), so I'm excited to see if any more VAs get figured out!

Here's one of the audio logs he's in, which is the clearest one I could find.
I'm not 100% on this, but it seems like a pretty close match to my ear, anyway.
Hope this helps!
Seems promising, looks like we may have our man! Awaiting full confirmation.
