Ace Combat 6: Fires of Liberation
- "IDOLMASTER, Miki Hoshii Aircraft. An extremely stable, yet otherwise remarkably average aircraft with few outstanding qualities. While capable, it could be great if it only tried a little harder."
- ― Official description
- "First to debut is Miki Hoshii. The world can't wait to see what talents this future star has hiding under her wings."
- ― Xbox Marketplace description
The Su-33 -THE IDOLMASTER MIKI- was the first aircraft of the iDOLM@STER aircraft series. It was released in November 22, 2007 with DLC PACK #02 at the cost of $4.99 (400 MSP, pre-MSP retirement). The Miki Hoshii aircraft is outfitted with a lime green and white coating, displaying Miki's likeness in the outer side of the left tailfin. A first in the series, the aircraft's projectiles now emit green colored smoke trails.
In performance, the aircraft receives a significant upgrade to its air-to-ground and stability parameters, thus enhancing its ground combat capabilities. In exchange for this upgrade, the aircraft's armor and speed are reduced. In terms of weapons capacity, the QAAM and RCL's total ammunition are given a large increase, while that of basic missiles and the XMA4 are reduced to mimic Miki's height and 3-sizes .
The Miki's Su-33 has a successor in the form of the Su-47 -THE IDOLMASTER MIKI-EX-.
