@F22 Lover  Why should it be silly or lame ? I think Gryphus 1 was already an ace at the beginning of the Leasath Aggression, his squadron members refers to him with respect, Rick also ask to him to take back Griswall immediately ( Like if he could manage to guide an attack with the 95% of Aurelia occupied. Surely such an arrogant affirmation). Also Crux refers to him as "Sir" from the beginning of the game. Even chronologically, it could be that Gryphus 1 was trained by Mobius 1 after Operation Katina, but before the 2019-2020. Canonically, Mobius 1 and Gryphus 1 uses the same aircraft (F-4E Phantom II and F-22A Raptor), but this could only suggest this theory, while probably it's just a coincidence. ( Obviously, this can be only a teory, there's no way to demonstrate a similiar thing. ). Now the question could be "Oh well if he was already an ace why in Skies of Incursion we are Falco 1 instead Gryphus 1 ?" About this, I think that is only because Gryphus 1 was assigned at the Aubrey AFB, and Skies of Incursion should talk only about the true start of the war at the border with Leasath. Also, in Skies of Deception, Genette says that Leasath used the Gleipnir and it's SWBM to conquer Aurelia in 10 days, but that is only immediately after Skies of Incursion, as in the game the SWBM make it's first appearance at the last mission along with the Gandr, and destroy almost the whole Aurelian fleet. At that time, the legitimacy of the war was being questioned because the fights in Incursion were almost only skirmishes, until the Gandr was deployed. So the Gryphus Squadron was not deployed as reinforcement.

Well, that said, on the Protagonists of the games we can only create or assume theories on the information we are given, then, I could say a lot of bullshits, or true things. In any case, we can't demonstrate nothing. Do you have a personal teory about Gryphus 1 ?
