Can buildings be destroyed in Ace Combat 8?

The destruction is tied to a specific tactical objective in Theve: slowing the tracked superweapon while FCU bomb trucks attack it. This does not prove that every city object is freely destructible.

The number of destructible locations, physics rules and performance impact remain unknown.
