The ADFX-01 -Block1- 1 Star Aircraft is a Special Aircraft variant of the ADFX-01 Morgan featuring a United Nations Forces prototype livery. The Block1's livery was later featured in Ace Combat 7: Skies Unknown as one of the ADFX-01's bonus skins in the Cutting-edge Aircraft Series DLC.

History[]

Plans for developing the ADFX-01 were discovered by the UNF in the USEA Federation during Operation Eternal Liberation. USEA had not completed a model by the time the plans were seized. The UNF used these plans to create their own line of ADFX-01s, beginning with the prototype "Block1" line. This prototype was awarded to some mercenaries operating with the UNF for testing in combat.

After successful tests, the UNF greenlit mass production of the base model.

Game Analysis[]

Ace Combat Infinity[]

ADFX-01 -Block1- Icon
"A prototype fighter created by the UN Forces based on the plans from a certain country. Prior to mass production the aircraft is required to meet various requirements to be successful in combat. Taking this into consideration, the aircraft has been adapted to provide high maneuverability and a thrust weight ratio for a large scale aircraft. It also comes equipped with unique and powerful weapons. "Block1" refers to the first batch of prototype aircraft. The onboard "Tactical Laser System" is still being refined and its use has been limited in real combat."

Trivia[]

See more trivia at ADFX-01 Morgan.

  • While the description of the Block1 Morgan states that the design plans were discovered in an "unspecified hostile country", the only such country would be the USEA Federation, the country that the UNF was fighting.
    • This is confirmed during Online Co-Op Missions, when an enemy unit can rarely be heard saying << I swear I've seen that plane before... >>
    • However, it could also be referring to a country allied with the USEA Federation. If this is the case, Russia would be a likely choice (especially since the prototype colors match those of the T-50), but no evidence is available to prove any specific country's involvement.
  • In an April 2014 interview with Famitsu Weekly Magazine, Kazutoki Kono commented that the Block1, then known as the "ADFX-01-1" or "ADFX-????", is not the same aircraft as the Strangereal model, but a "wholly different" aircraft. He added that the Tactical Laser System would be significantly less powerful, by virtue of being a prototype.[1] Indeed, the TLS has been reduced in firepower as well as ammunition compared to the other Morgan models available.
  • The challenge to earn the Block1 Morgan was supposed to expire on August 6, 2014. At some point in mid-July, the expiration date was extended to August 31, 2014. This extension was not given a reason or publicly mentioned anywhere.
