Confirmed MRP progression loop

Bandai Namco’s official walkthrough states that players earn MRP in missions and spend it to unlock additional fighter jets. This connects completing sorties directly to expanding the aircraft roster.

The wording does not establish specific payout amounts, difficulty bonuses, replay bonuses, or a separate multiplayer economy. Those questions require the retail progression screen.

MRP versus the Ace Pass

MRP aircraft unlocks and Ace Pass rewards are separate confirmed systems. The pass can contain playable aircraft, cosmetics, and aircraft-upgrade items, while MRP is explicitly earned in missions to unlock additional jets. Do not assume every aircraft is available through both routes.

How to plan purchases before exact prices are known

Unlock aircraft that answer an immediate mission need rather than spending from an unverified tier list. Aircraft roles include fighters, attack aircraft, multirole aircraft, and electronic warfare aircraft. Save enough flexibility to cover different objective types until the full tree and prices are visible.
