More of Skull Squadron?
I really did enjoy this game, I've played it since the beta, and I know it's pretty unreasonable to request changes to the story, and this is pretty much a copy and paste of one of my replies to another thread, but I wish Skull Squadron had a bigger role in the game.

They're the first characters you play in the game, and honestly, Rena and Mobius have some of the most personality out of all the characters. You play 3 missions as Skull Squadron, and they show up as allies in the mission to extract the President, but then they just completely vanish, and we don't even know what happened to them afterwards.

I was really hoping they would be allies for the rest of the game, being swayed by the President's hope for a peaceful world, and choose not to side with Dragon's Eye and the 7th Fleet. Plus it's said in the game that the Takao can hold up to 3 battleframes. I was also really hoping Nemo and Mobius would reappear in Seoul 2 as part of the allies that appear in the mission, since Japan, where they were shot down, is geographically pretty close to Korea, and M5 Vipers seem to be more widely used. Plus, two ace pilots surviving being shot down wouldn't be too far of a stretch, right?

It would've been funny to have Mobius do some friendly banter with Yuliana, while complementing her skill or her battleframe since she shot him and Nemo down earlier.

I know making these changes would be pretty much impossible since there would need to be additional voice work, but I really liked Skull Squadron, and I wish we saw or could see more of them. I don't expect this to happen, but, it would be awesome to see 4 Skull Squadron IFFs as part of the allied forces in the second last mission, and have it be implied that Nemo and Mobius bailed out and managed to find 2 new Vipers to regroup with the rest of Skull Squadron.
