ACE COMBAT 8: WINGS OF THEVE Wingman Planner
Compose a balanced squad around your role and check coverage gaps, using officially confirmed squad profiles.
How it works: choose the role you plan to fly and the squad members you have, and the planner shows the coverage each member adds and any missing role in your lineup. Data version: official character page, Sep 30, 2026. It recommends coverage — it does not claim verified AI-behaviour or win rates.
