The U-2 is a reconnaissance aircraft. It is known for being one of the earliest aircraft developed with the ability to conduct recon operations at high altitudes.
In Ace Combat: Assault Horizon Legacy, at least two U-2s were utilised by the Usean Rebel Forces during the Usean coup d'état. The U-2s and the accompanying SR-71s were shot down by Phoenix over the Amber Mountains[1]. The U-2s did not appear in Ace Combat 2; instead XB-70s were seen flying at a high altitude with the SR-71s over the same area.
During the Continental War, an ISAF U-2, callsign Leopard, was dispatched to spy on Erusean forces deep within Erusean territory. It discovered Megalith, a facility that was being constructed in haste to perform a mass retaliation attack against ISAF forces. The U-2 encountered engine trouble during its return trip, prompting ISAF to launch Mobius 1 to assist its return through Gnome Ravine, a foggy, mountainous region under Erusean control.[2]
Leasath was known to possess a number of units. One was being used over the Kalana Steppes while Gryphus Squadron was operating in the area,[3] while another was operated within Archelon Fortress.[4]
A Valahia ace by the name of Hengel utilized a U-2 during Antares Squadron operations in Dubai.[5]
