BTW i have played AC since AC-2 unfortunately i missed the 6th and Ace Combat X

Isn't the burst missile based on a MIRV warhead missile?

in Ace Combat 5 you could be right..however there are no such Missiles have that "Big Spehrical" explosion that capale of sustained blast on few seconds , unless it's nukes

They probably are nukes. Or at least tactical nukes. After all, the use of such weapons would be effective against a carrier group. However, I dont think its possible to put a MIRV warhead on a tactical nuke

no way..even a Kilotons would kick Aircrafts like flies if detonated on air

and The MIRV warhead itself is already a Tactical Nuke try looks at TOPOL-M's MIRV version it's designed to carry single or 6 Nuclear Warhead

First of all, if you want to take out a carrier group, the tactical nuke is the best choice.Second, when the mission starts, the aircraft are far away from the carriers when the burst missile strikes and you are always told to keep above a certain altitude when the missile hits.

first of all don't mix real world tactics with Ace Combat, there are no nukes explodes in Ace Combat series till Ace Combat Zero

and second the tactical nukes would be carried by Long Range Cruise Missiles instead of Ballistic one

mind if i ask why Kestrel still survived ?

if you flying close enough to the explosion sites..i think you'll notice that there's an aircraft flying at low altitude , how it could survive from "Ace Combat" Burst missiles

EMP from a REAL Nuclear explosion would spread many kilometers from its explosion site , just flying high wouldn't be enough, and your planes must be painted with special anti radiation paint like Tu-16 that watched Tsar Bomba Detonation , which fighter aircrafts today may lacks of

according to Namco..the creator of the Game the Burst Missiles have special warhead that can sustain its explosions in a period of time....however if you see the explosion profile..it's definitely no nukes (no Mushroom Clouds) etc and the light intensity from that explosions are less than a Nuclear warhead
