The MiG-1.44 Flatpack is an experimental multirole aircraft built by Mikoyan. It has appeared sporadically in Ace Combat games, most recently in Ace Combat: Assault Horizon Legacy and Ace Combat Infinity.
History
Strangereal
MiG-1.44s had seen use in a number of conflicts, starting with the Usean coup d'état, where it was operated by the Usean Rebel Forces.[1] A notable pilot was one of their aces, Gold Bird.[2]
MiG-1.44s were also used during the Circum-Pacific War.[3] Only two known pilots used the aircraft, one by OADF pilot Allen C. Hamilton[4] and the other by Belkan Air Force ace pilot Replicator.[5]
MiG-1.44s were used during the closing stages of the Aurelian War by both the Aurelian Air Force and the Leasath Air Force.[6] A notable Leasathian ace, Lancer was known to fly this aircraft.[7]
Joint Assault universe
During the Valahia Crisis, Varcolac Squadron leader Milosz Sulejmani flew a MiG 1.44 in the second[8] and third battles against Antares Squadron.[9] Later on, Flatpacks were used by the Golden Axe Plan Private Army over Nevada as well as San Francisco.
Infinity universe
MiG-1.44s were available for use by UNF pilots during Operation Eternal Liberation.
Game Analysis
Ace Combat Infinity
- "A proof of concept aircraft for the 5th generation fighter, developed for the Soviet Union Air Force.
Developed as a demonstrator for the MFI Plan and conceived to counter the American ATF Plan, it was selected as a likely candidate for production.
The delta wing with its canards and the secondary propulsion directional control nozzles provide excellent speed and turning performance, creating a multirole with a slight bias for air-to-air combat.
It's[sic] NATO codename is "Flatpack"."
