80000 Score In Unexpected Visitor - Ace Combat 7 DLC

Without ground targets of note, the Su-57 PLSL finally sees a match for its power - the flying laser show that is the RAVEN takes center stage here. The (unmodded) TLS might be a far cry from its ludicrous self in previous games, but it's still the best option for the respawning groups in this mission - and, by virtue of being balanced, allows me to use the RAVEN without qualms I'd otherwise have over superplanes for a score run (it was always about their crazy weapon, really).

Like my previous Long Day run, I think this can be further improved on, but it'd boil down to just one more squadron respawn or a target your allies didn't kill, and so I don't think it'd be interesting to optimize it further. Pretty happy with this in any case.

PS: The mission intro is 22 seconds long, and it first perfectly with a few AC tracks, specially Supercircus and Naval Warfare. God it was tempting to use them even though they wouldn't fit as well.
