** From the same series is the gunship known as ''Nozo'', a modified C-5 that takes the gunship UpToEleven, as it is armed with a full 21 GAU-8 Avengers. Its companion plane, the rather spectacularly colored ''Bozo'', is fitted with a bewildering array of machine guns, Gatling guns, rocket launchers, and artillery pieces; said plane becomes the setpiece for an entire novel when it crashes in Vietnam and has to defend itself from constant human wave attacks.

** Being the first ''Ace Combat'' game following the game's timeline, ''VideoGame/AceCombatZeroTheBelkanWar'' gave us the granddaddies of the fictional planes of the series : the ADFX-01 Morgan and his upgraded version, the ADFX-02. Sadly, you can only fly the former, which is still an absolute blast. Both planes are so utterly degenerate, the 01 can actually complete several entire missions with a single subweapon shot. And if the 01, for balance reasons, only carries one of said subweapons (either a massive bomb, a laser cannon or a missile spoofing system), the 02 has ''all three''.

** ''ComicBook/WonderWoman1942'': Not only is it an early version of stealth technology, it can travel at least 2,000 m.p.h. or 40 miles/second, be summoned/controlled telepathically, travel into space and even to other dimensions. This was also before Wondy had been given the ability to fly herself, removing the usual question for why she needs a plane.
