##Earth Defense Force Iron Rain:##
Wiki guide on every AA weapon, what enemies to kill to unlock them, and recommended missions to grind. Translated by Google so it's not perfect. If something isn't translated properly or doesn't make sense, you can also try this reddit thread. Alternative wiki page here but make sure to use an Adblocker.
The locations of all 55 MIA drones hidden in the game! If you need visual help, this video guide works great!
Useful guide on how to earn ~$200k in a 2 minute mission.
There was a dev stream teasing some of what the upcoming Iron Rain DLC will include, and you can get the rundown of it all in the thread above!

All of our initial impressions of Iron Rain when it first released.
##Earth Defense Force 5:##
Extremely thorough guide to playing Wing Diver efficiently in EDF 5!
Info on weapon drops and enemy health in EDF 5. Also has map images.
Huge list of every class' weapon in EDF 5, including tons of stats! However I don't believe this is 100% complete, hence the following links...
##Earth Defense Force 4.1:##
Tons of stats for every weapon in EDF 4.1, even down to their zoom level.
Self-explanatory title, it shows the health of each enemy in each mission, and lets you choose many options like how many players are in the mission. Unfortunately doesn't translate well with Google Translate, but if you're on PC and using Chrome, the in-browser translate option works very well.
Alternative to the above. Insanely thorough Steam guide on how enemy health works, and the values for each enemy in each mission.
New weapons! New balancing changes! The Genocide Guns are back! Air Raider can use all slots for anything! Increased armor gain!
Ever wanted to have the EDF song from 4.1 as your ringtone? Well now you can, as long as you don't mind digging through 24,900 voice files!

I ripped all the voicelines for EDF 2, as well as the OST for both 2 and 2017 Portable, and threw them all into a giant folder for you all to enjoy. I also included the digital manuals!
