Usean coup d'état
During the Usean coup d'état, Anchorhead was captured by rebels and turned into a supply base for their fleet, including a Kinnear-class aircraft carrier.[2]
Rebels' retreat
On May 22, Scarface Squadron defended Anchorhead from a rebel bombing raid and successfully prevented the attack.[3]
Continental War
In 2005, during the Continental War, the Independent State Allied Forces captured and occupied Anchorhead shortly before taking Farbanti.[4]
The hunt for the Alicorn
After the Njord Fleet was destroyed, the Erusean Navy assembled its leftover vessels at Anchorhead Bay to create a new fleet.[5] On September 10, 2019, Operation Domino was launched to disable the Erusean reserve Rán Fleet while it was still in port.[5]
Defense of the Erusean General
On October 1, 2019, Strider Squadron went to Anchorhead to escort defecting Erusean Lieutenant General Édouard Labarthe; an Osean F-16C shot down his transport after false intelligence, killing him.[6]
Trivia
Anchorhead's skyline originally featured two skyscrapers resembling the World Trade Center, which were removed in some re-releases but restored in Ace Combat 7: Skies Unknown.[7]
