ADFX-01 -Block1-

The ADFX-01 Block1 Morgan was a United Nations Forces prototype of the ADFX-01 Morgan. It was awarded to mercenaries who performed multiple sorties for the UNF against the USEA Federation.

History
Plans for developing the ADFX-01 were discovered by the UNF in the USEA Federation during Operation Eternal Liberation. USEA had not completed a model by the time the plans were seized. The UNF used these plans to create their own line of ADFX-01s, beginning with the prototype "Block1" line. This prototype was awarded to some mercenaries operating with the UNF for testing in combat.

After successful tests, the UNF greenlit mass production of the base model.

Game Analysis
Infinity====Ace Combat Infinity=== Description
 * A prototype fighter created by the UN Forces based on the plans from a certain country. Prior to mass production the aircraft is required to meet various requirements to be successful in combat. Taking this into consideration, the aircraft has been adapted to provide high maneuverability and a thrust weight ratio for a large scale aircraft. It also comes equipped with unique and powerful weapons. "Block1" refers to the first batch of prototype aircraft. The onboard "TLS" tactical laser system is still being refined and its use has been limited in real combat.

Trivia
See more trivia at ADFX-01 Morgan.
 * While the description of the Block1 Morgan states that the design plans were discovered in an 'unspecified hostile country', the only such country would be the USEA Federation, the country that the UNF was fighting.
 * This is confirmed during Online Co-Op Missions, when an enemy unit can rarely be heard saying << I swear I've seen that plane before... >>
 * In an April 2014 interview with Famitsu Weekly Magazine, Kazutoki Kono commented that the ADFX-01-1, or "ADFX-????" as it is called in Japanese news releases, is not the same aircraft as the Strangereal model, but a "wholly different" aircraft. He added that the Tactical Laser System would be significantly less powerful, by virtue of being a prototype. Indeed, the TLS has been reduced in firepower as well as number of shots available.
