CFA-44 Nosferatu

The CFA-44 Nosferatu is an advanced twin-engined delta-wing Estovakian fighter fielded by the Strigon flight lead, Ilya Pasternak. It is a powerful as well as maneuverable jet fighter that can use a trio of cutting-edge battle technology; namely the All Direction Multi-purpose Missile pods, the Electromagnetic Launcher (downsized railguns) & an integral ECM system.

Description
The term 'Nosferatu' is Romanian for "Vampire". The aircraft is very different to the Strigon Team's signature plane, the Su-33 Flanker-D. The CFA-44 has an obtuse angle from the beak of the plane to the end of the wing. It is shaped to look more swift and terrifying. It is packed with three different weapons, two of which are not suited for other aircraft; The ADMM (All-Directional-Multi-purpose-Missile), the EML (Electromagnetic-Missile-Launcher), and the ECMP (Electromagnetic-Counter-Measure-Pod, Tornado GR.4 and F/A-18F get something similar). It also has two afterburners. It is slightly faster, has a higher normal turn rate and can carry more missiles than the Su-33 Flanker-D. However, it's High-G function is more difficult to control, as it doesn't leave it as soon as one or more of the throttle buttons are released. In the hands of inexperienced players, it can be very prone to stalls.

UAV
Main article: UAV-45 Malgebolg

On the day of the battle against Ilya Pasternak, a large number of UAV's (named UAV-45 Malgebolg) were used to help him in the battle. Whenever Pasternak would fly far away at high speed, the player's radar would automatically lock onto a UAV. These UAVs were as small and as numerous as the cruise missiles launched at Gracemeria that same night. In addition, these UAV were extremely fast & nimble, often evading missiles by simply accelerating/performing sharp Immelmann Turns. A single, standard missile was sufficient to eliminate a UAV, and the same applied to cannon fire.

 * EML
 * ECMP

Trivia

 * Its name is a reference to a Romanian vampire legend. This may be a reference to the "Vampire" squadron folded into Strigon Team. However, the emblem for Strigon itself is related to another mythological figure, the Grim Reaper.
 * The CFA-44 is similar in design to the Strigon Team's signature aircraft, the Su-33D Flanker, suggesting that the Nosferatu concept was derivated from the Flanker-D. In addition, comparing the Estovakian and SP paints respectively on the Su-33 and CFA-44 shows that they bear the same colors and patterns, but with the colors switching (ex: on Strigon's Su-33, black is the primary color, while on Pasternak's CFA-44, red is the primary color).
 * Ilya Pasternak can be destroyed with exactly two EML shots.
 * The plane appears in Tekken 6's scenario campaign as an Easter egg.
 * It comes in five colors, Emmerian, Estovakian, Prototype, Razgriz, and Aces. Razgriz and Aces have different characteristics like increased speed or more agile.
 * The fifth color of FENRIR in ACX2:JA has a similarity to the color of Ilya Pasternak's Nosferatu color.
