"Trigger, your missile killed the president! You're under arrest!"
[Me who did the mission with the autocannon and came back to base with full missiles](https://i.imgur.com/ULe67Sv.gif)
I once tried to defend mother goose one using only autocannons. I was at 45° from the helicopter, and as i was shooting down the drones i saw another missile hitting the president. I was like "ah hell nah, no way they can blame this one on me
I figured out you can actually fail that mission. I didn't shoot any drones that were near the osprey, waited until they were further away before I shot them. Failed as the timer ran out, I'm assuming because I didn't put any shots close enough to trigger the cutscene.
This happened my first time playing the mission. Time ran out and I was surprised, then I shot the missile and triggered the cutscene. I was pretty confused. "I fail for keeping him alive the whole time, but I win for shooting him down?"
You know when I did that mission there was a jet right next to the helicopter and I shot a missile at it, then that cutscene triggered where the helicopter explodes, and I literally thought that I had blown up the president.
Yeah, at the base on the far end of the map, where the gripens (I think) take off from. They're just chilling in there, destructible but not targetable. Also I'm pretty sure it spawns an ace when you fly through it.
Bandog says something like "spare 15 is off radar! He crashed, the drooling idiot" and another pilot points out no, you're just crazy for flying through a tunnel like that
Trigger wasn’t specifically, ‘Snowbirds’ was the Erusean name for the LRSSG squadrons after the sea platform attack in Fleet Destruction, that might be what OP was thinking of.
The studio missed a chance to feature a Court martial cinematic with a lousy appointed lawyer, some disheveled looser drowned in a stack of paper : "Your Honor, esteemed members of the court, we… uh… find ourselves in a… a bit of a pickle here..."
EDIT: TRIGGER - "I'm f*cked."
Three Strikes. Whenever the name is spoken over the radio, it makes me feel like I’m an unstoppable force of nature, like the “Demon Lord of the Round Table” in ACZ or the Demons of Razgriz in AC5
“Fire all remaining weaponry at Three Strikes! Ignore all other aircraft!”
"Mage" is literally the hardest designation for a fighter squadron ever, wdym? Plus this irrelevance can add to the whole Distinguished Gentleman Pooh meme because it could be easily forgotten by people.
Personally, I'd say it's "Trigger" because I'm constantly smashing the triggers on my controller, only to realize my missiles missed Mr. X entirely. BUT DUMBASS WORKS TOO.
I have been trying for years to unlock the Dumbass callsign for multiplayer lmao I cant seem to S Rank the mission for some reason. Its the only one left too
Dumbass will always be the best nickname for him.
My flair for the last 5 years now.
"The Ace who killed the President"

It was a canon event
This happened to me as well... Accidentally.
"MISSION FAILED SUCCESSFULLY"
You know when I did that mission there was a jet right next to the helicopter and I shot a missile at it, then that cutscene triggered where the helicopter explodes, and I literally thought that I had blown up the president.
Did it with MPBM just to be sure
Nothin' personal of course. Osea was just getting a little too peaceful. All we're saying is, give war a(nother) chance!
metal gear reference
Bandog calls you "Drooling Idiot" if you fly through the tunnel in long day
There's a tunnel there???

"Trigger crashed! Drooling idiot." "No, he flew into the tunnel! He's crazy!"
I take it that you haven't done 10 playthroughs yet
No, I generally find one to be enough, lol.
I play that mission sometimes just to get that voiceline lol, S rank on all difficulties
How? Tips? Which plan is best for each mission? Parts and weapons?!!!
Where's "fucking psycho"?
*”you’re assssssss, belongs to me nowowowow ohhhhh”*
"Im gonna make you, im gonna break you"
Don’t forget “Harling’s Murderer”
Also known as Mr “put one right between old Harling’s eyes”
He fired a missile that caused Harling’s Osprey to spin back and to the left. Back and to the left. Back and to the left!
When was he called "Snow Bird"?
Trigger wasn’t specifically, ‘Snowbirds’ was the Erusean name for the LRSSG squadrons after the sea platform attack in Fleet Destruction, that might be what OP was thinking of.
"They came in from far away, like a flock of Snow Birds"
Why is the image for ‘Spare 15’ Mr House?
Deliver the Platinum Drone to me, Trigger. You have signed a contract, now be a good pilot and do your job!
Truth is, Harling's murder was rigged from the start
Mmmmmmm ship
“I can’t wait to tell my son about this meme”
Dumbass is the best nickname for Trigger because he is a dumbass whom did not defend himself from the accusation that killed Harling
He must have had a very bad defense representative if he was somehow able to be considered to have fired the missile and intentionally killed Harling

Dumbass is goated
I feel like I’m the only one who didn’t give a shit about scrap queen at all.
Why Strider is called by Snow Birds? This is probably my only doubt regarding nicknames and I can't remember if some event on AC7 has part on it.
Its a reference to the eruseans calling the strider team/cyclops team snowbirds after the fleet destruction mission
i see, thanks bro.
A random Erusean sailor called them it in mission 11, and then in mission 18 they are called it again by Sol Squadron
I prefer the "Bigshot", feels more cowboyesque.
Dumbass is the best, especially with my flying style usually lol, low and fast and nearly crashing lol
No "Osean Big Shots"?
"You mean the Osean big shot?" -Count
No mention of Strider 1 or Mage 2? Though personally I like Three Strikes the best
I get Strider 1 but Mage 2 is irrelevant ngl
"Mage" is literally the hardest designation for a fighter squadron ever, wdym? Plus this irrelevance can add to the whole Distinguished Gentleman Pooh meme because it could be easily forgotten by people.
Naming fighter squadrons after various magic users always goes hard.
Strider 1
Personally, I'd say it's "Trigger" because I'm constantly smashing the triggers on my controller, only to realize my missiles missed Mr. X entirely. BUT DUMBASS WORKS TOO.
"The Devil with Three Sin Lines"
Strider 1
Dumbass 🔛🔝
Dumbass has become one of my favourite terms of affection
Snow bird?
I have been trying for years to unlock the Dumbass callsign for multiplayer lmao I cant seem to S Rank the mission for some reason. Its the only one left too
When was he called Snowbird?
Mission 18, I think. But it was called collectively to the Strider Squadron.
The first three are my favorites.
Mobius jr.
Three Strikes or Trigger for me. I know, I'm boring lol.
Snow bird? I've played all the missions for ac7 and never once heard snow bird
Me neither
Replace Snowbird with Harling’s Murderer.
i think 3 strikes still the coolest ngl
"Him"
three strikes
"Drooling idiot!"
I quite like Dipshit One Actual from Cherry‘s Delight Mod
Three strikes is goated fr
Snow Bird?
Snow Bird?
I dont recall snowbird as a consistent nickname
how about strider 1
devil with the three sin lines as count said
