After having listened to the "supposed" sequel to this soundtrack, it's obvious Namco knew better what it was doing with Skies of Deception compared to Joint Assault.
Tetsukazu Nakanishi was the supervisor of the OST, and his techno synths give the soundtrack a pretty good old-school arcade feel. It might not be the techno/orchestra you're familiar with in AC4 and parts of AC5, but it's good flight music nonetheless.
Unlike Joint Assault that I think the music team had a feeling the game would fail, Tetsu-san had hope in this game that scored higher on gaming sites and I'm glad at least one of the AC gods was a part of it and not just "pasted" into it.
If you want techno flight sim goodness with not much of an orchestra, don't look further than Skies of Deception.
In my Opinion?
8.6 out of 10
