Ace Combat 7: Skies Unknown is the fifteenth main installment of the Ace Combat franchise. The game returns to the "Strangereal" universe, and is set in the midst of conflict between the Kingdom of Eurusia and the Osean Federation. The player experiences the air war through an Osean pilot, callsign "Trigger," while the cutscenes explore the war as seen through the eyes of other characters. The game was released on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One on January 18, 2019, and on Microsoft Windows on February 1, 2019. The game includes multiplayer battles, and a VR mode is currently exclusive to PlayStation VR.

The following weapons appear in the video game Ace Combat 7: Skies Unknown:

Cutscene Weapons

This section is for conventional small arms only seen in the game's cinema scenes.

Unidentified Handgun

A modern striker-fired, polymer framed pistol is used in a cutscene near the end of the game.

The pistol fires in slo-mo. Note the "XD-50" markings, though it bears little physical resemblance to a Springfield XD.

After locking empty, it is left discarded on the ground.

Mk 18 Mod 1

Mk 18-type rifles are used by Osean soldiers and various characters in several cutscenes.

Mk 18 Mod 1 with Crane stock, Daniel Defense MK18 RIS II, and folding sights - 5.56x45mm

An Osean guard at the 444th Air Base escorts prisoners with a Mk 18.

Tabloid levels his Mk 18 in another scene later in the game. Evidently, he has as little faith in iron sights as he does in governments.

Mounted Weapons

These are all the cannons mounted to aircraft in AC7. With a few exceptions (such as the AH-64D Apache Longbow's M230 Chain Gun), almost all are available to the player.
