"This route is Ustio's lifeline. I'll get it back."
Larry Foulke

"Annex" is the second campaign mission in Ace Combat Zero: The Belkan War. The player must clear out the enemy ground troops stationed in the area.

Briefing[edit | edit source]

We must regain control over Route 171, which runs through Arlon, to secure a transit route for our ground troops. There are bridges over this route, three over the Aare River, all heavily guarded by the Belkan Armored Corps. Securing this route is critical to Ustio's attack on the Belkan Forces. Destroy the Belkan ground units blocking passage along this route and secure this supply line between our forces and the Osean Army.

Objectives[edit | edit source]

This is an air-to-ground attack mission; the player must destroy all of the Belkan vehicles blocking the highway. There are three bridges, each progressively more difficult. There are also a few bandits in the air as well as many optional targets along the route.

The mission is completed once all TGTs are destroyed.

Debriefing[edit | edit source]

The mission was a success. Passage along Route 171 has been secured. Thanks to you, Ustio will now be able to launch a counter-attack.
