Game Analysis[]
Ace Combat Infinity[]
- "A special version of the F-14A that resembles the fourth aircraft from a famous tactical fighter squadron.
Featuring high-level enhancements made specifically for an aircraft in a unit of ace pilots, this aircraft features balanced specs in order to help pilots that are still working on their skills.
The original pilot was just a trainee when the base he was posted to was attacked. As an emergency measure, he took off in an aircraft and helped repel the enemy, marking an extremely unusual first sortie.
He continued to fight as the fourth aircraft in the squadron, earning an impressive combat history. Those who knew him speak of a quiet, gentle young man." - ― Hangar
