IMO they're working on something bigger.

This is my idea: when they first created "Ace Combat", Namco imagined a fictional world with unknown countries like Aurelia, Erusea, Yuktobania and so on. But they used "real world" aircrafts (at least until AC3).

Later they've created Assault Horizon, which takes place in the real world.

In the end, they came out with "Infinity", where the real world ends and the new one begins to be shaped.

Do you see where I am getting at? In Infinity every description involving past aircrafts says something like "hero from an undisclosed Nation", or "a faraway country mercenary pilot" or something like that.

I believe they want to reunite the worlds, creating a long story line which starts with Col. Bishop from ACAH and ends with AC3 (cronologically, it should be the latest title, right?).

Once they achieve that, they shall begin creating a new game which covers all the past titles.
