I'm pretty sure I just answered your question on Steam. :P But in case anyone else wants to see it:

Campaign: You are not allowed to select whatever aircraft you want. The Campaign limits you to what you could realistically have during that mission. The CFA-44 is not an actual aircraft in the Assault Horizon universe (well, it actually is, but that's something for another time), so therefore you can't select it.

Free Mission: You can select whatever plane you want in Free Mission mode, which is like the story campaign but you don't have to go through each mission in sequence. You can fly the CFA-44 in any story mission through this gameplay mode.

Multiplayer: The Co-Op missions are restricted by the same rules as the Campaign. But Capital Conquest, Deathmatch, and Domination allow you to select whatever plane you want unless the host changes the rules to restrict some aircraft.
