Ace Combat Lore | What Did Mihaly Do Prior to the Lighthouse War?

[@dtbeagle]

Mihaly is an artistic representation of the player. Having shot down multiple aces, toying with enemies trying to run, shrugging off multiple missle hits, and striking fear into all the enemies

[@drivinmiatas5068]

He is the perfect antagonist, one that is fun to fight for those very reasons

[@thegardenofesim1174]

So Mihaly taught yellow 13 in arriving on the most important battles in a late fashion ?

[@thatguygooders4370]

Allow me to go on a tangent that is mildly related to this: So, Mobius 1 became a part of the IUN peacekeeeping force post AC4, and fought against Free Erusia twice, in AC5 arcade and AC7 VR. In the VR missions, I think, Omega 11 references that Mobius is "old" or "older", so we can assume he's a getting close to retirement at around the time of the VR missions. Perhaps following the campaign, he decides to take it easy, and become a flight instructor for the IUN. Flash forward 5 years to the Lighthouse war (AC7), and we're introduced to Trigger, the newest member of the IUN-PKF Mage Squadron. Trigger, in his very first engagement, easily downs a whole squadron of bombers and their escorts almost single handedly, and obviously goes on to become the top Ace of the war. Head canon: Much like Mihaly trained Yellow 13, Mobius 1 trained Trigger. To take it a step further, I wonder if he trained him one on one.

[@ShinGetsu857]

That's... actually a very good theory.

[@jamesharris4695]

No no no, good theory but I believe it was blaze who trained trigger

[@bigballzmcdrawz2921]

[@majorborngusfluunduch8694]

@@jamesharris4695 What evidence do you have for that? Mobius 1 and Trigger both served as part of the IUN Peacekeeping force, and they both end up flying the F-22 as their canon Aircraft. This is another similarity to the relationship between Mihaly and Yellow 13. They both flew advanced canard-equipped Flankers in a 5-ship formation. There's nothing that ties Blaze and Trigger together besides service in the Osean Air Force. Yet Blaze obviously didn't fight for Osea for the entirety of AC5. On top of that we don't know if Blaze even returned to the military. There's just not enough there to connect him to Trigger. Meanwhile, it's entirely possible and even likely that Mobius 1 and Trigger have met. They serve the same organization. They operate in the same theater of war. Their ages line up well enough. They even fly the same aircraft.

I actually support this theory. It’s said in AC7 that he was the top ace from two wars ago. If you only count the Usean continent, that means two wars ago would be the events of AC2. Who was the top ace? Scarface 1. Plus he literally has a scar on his face. And it doesn’t take away from any of the other facts that we now know about him either, because even though they say his last combat mission was in 1991, Scarface 1 was a mercenary. Meaning that records of his time as a merc are probably not readily available. Headcannon: Mihaly is Scarface 1.

He may have trained "Y13", but at this time "Y13" was young and hasn't reached his full potential yet. Means, when we fought him, maybe he'd been equal to Mihaly.

[@jaffapolice]

I love hidden meanings in the mission. You attack Shilage castle taking out their army, eventually sieging the castle, so the kings guard (Sol squadron) takes off to defend the keep. But they start to notice that they are loosing, so the king himself arrives to defend his keep, sacrificing himself for others.

[@Kurayami_13]

Not really. You lay waste to his domain, killing civilians in the process and while everyone trying to defend them, the only thing Mihaly cares is killing Trigger. Not leading Sol squadron, not his kingdom - only being up in the skies with opponent pushing him beyond his limits. Skies and battles are the only things he cares about.

[@warwolf3005]

Well since player character ace always canonically defeats his nemesis, Mobius 1 ; Blaze ; Cipher ; Garuda 1 ; Trigger ; Gryphus 1 are all better then Mihaly

[@Krescentwolf]

It's less of a power-level problem and more of a tier problem. Main character Aces > Enemy Aces. That's just how the story works. It makes it hard to measure how an enemy ace of one generation might measure up to an enemy ace of another generation. That said, the Belkan scientist did point out that Mihaly was STILL evolving his skills, even at his age.

[@NothingXemnas]

Sometimes you compare an ace by who he kills. Other times by how many. In that regard, Cypher is generally accepted as Ace Combat's best for canonically taking down at least 5 ace squadrons and more than 10 in gameplay. However, Mobius 1 is also recognized as the strongest for taking down the Yellow Squadron, which alone was extremely powerful. More than that, his bomber skills are by far the best, from the number of ground targets destroyed. This is all opinion, though. Since they never canonically fought each other in skill competitions, we have no way to know.

[@jettstorm2253]

The lore is so vague we need MORE

[@sgtwardaddy9889]

Originally I had a theory that Mihaly was actually Galm 1. Because if you think about it, they said he was the top Ace from two wars before, which would mean The Belkan War. The reason I think this is: •During the Belkan War, Galm 1 and Pixy have a final joust, signifying the fact that they are the last knights of the round table. •During the final battle with Mihaly, it's almost reminiscent of the joust between Pixy and Galm 1, head on fight with the EML. •Galm 1 completely disappeared after the end of the war. And there are mentions to the Belkan War, like the seven nukes on Belkan soil. •During the final battle with Mihaly, Sol Squadron (the knights) take off to defend the castle and Mihaly (the King), but after heavy losses, Mihaly comes in to defend his knights, and sacrifices himself for them to live. It's kinda retelling the story of the final battle at Avalon Dam. (Kind of a late night tired, me and friend got talking theory.) •(This one being a bit of a unofficial theory), if the ADFX-01 Morgan is actually one of the DLC jets, it could of meant his past is finally coming to back to see him, being, Pixy seeing Galm 1 again like he said "thanks friend, see you again". •Another thing that kinda helps support this is his age. Let's say during Zero, he was 34, about the max age of being a pilot. Now you add in the 15 year inter war period that leads to the events of 5, he's now 49. Now you add in the 9 year space between 5 and 7, and now he's 58. About the right age for 7, and given how old he looks, he may look older due to all the stress of flying. But give or take a few years he's about the right age. I know this is a crazy, and all over the place theory, and Im only pointing out key reasons, but at the same time, it makes some sense if you really think about it.

During Megalith, I was mopping up Yellow Squadron before proceeding on to Megalith, and one Yellow Squad member says "Good work Mihaly" or... something to that effect. I honestly dont know if anyone else ever got that radio transmission while doing Megalith, but it was interesting to hear. This was also on a still working PS2 version, not an emulation, or save off the web. I get it if this is taken with a grain of salt, since there really isnt a way for me to easily prove it.

It's a real shame that Mihaly's great piloting skill was poorly shown via scripted boss fights. The Yellow fought much better and didn't have to be scripted to be.

Speaking of 1991; I wonder if Osea fough it's own version of the Gulf War against Erusia back then?

[@ankngmg]

Prolly cold war, that turned into an actual war until 1991

[@Krescentwolf]

Considering the helter skelter timeline of Strangereal, I'm not so sure. The Belkan War is basically analogous to world war 2, just with modern fighter jets. There's nothing to say the conflicts follow the order of our world. It could be a 'gulf conflict' or maybe Osea was involved in some peacekeeping effort in a jungle country somewhere else in Strangereal, a la Vietnam or Korea.

[@cnlbenmc]

+@@Krescentwolf+ There was an actual WWI of sorts in Strangereal between Osea and Belka. I though there was supposed to be something akin to WWII between the late '30s to '40s then the Cold War started up. But my pregame timeline knowledge is far from encyclopedic.

[@fulcrum2951]

There's an Osean Yuktobanian cold war

[@sta5011]

Mihaly is the PERFECT representation of the player in ace combat he literally plays with enemies,a dogfight god etc. Intact its possible he knows who Trigger actually was

[@XavierRez]

I really like that CGI of Mihaly Dumitru Margareta Corneliu Leopold Blanca Karol Aeon Ignatius Raphael Maria Niketas A. Shilage in the Su-30SM with experimental testing fighter helmet scene.

[@PaulNat360]

I’Ve Grown To Like The Color Scheme Of Mihaly’S Planes. I Have Two Fighter Jet Toys (1/72 Model Kits) Painted With His Color Scheme.

[@A-G-F-]

At the end, he regreted his actions with Grunder and "trained" trigger to give him a mission

[@gustavomartinsdesouza5548]

Mihaly was a fun guy He was basically a war monger that just wishes to fly... killing dumb pilots... a LOT of dumb pilots. "Oh hey, Mihaly, I have this program here that will make an infinite war because a lot of drones will fight with your skills, wanna join?" "I will fly?" "Well... yes, to extract data" "THEN YES"

[@draochvar9646]

Good thing for Mihayl that he sat out the last two big Usean conflicts, since he probably wouldn't have survived getting into a fight with Phoenix or Blaze. It's also kinda f*cked up that Mihaly is Gründer's slapdash, second-hand backup for their drones, since Phoenix trashed the original Z.O.E. units.

Mobius 1 Engage

Trigger is part of the yellow squadron

[@kevinnance3949]

He's only there to look for trigger his proteishea the yellow squadron...... Know as trigger mihaly is seeking revenge on trigger

[@cybertron1000s]

He was Cipher.

[@jjsta.romana8820]

Yellow 13 was the only guy to keep up with Mihaly Trigger killing Mihaly after: Hold my beer, Striders, hey Yellow 13, are you sure about that?

[@brecibros2469]

It's the drones that are the main antagonist mihaly was just a pawn to the belkan

[@MrYadiy]

Someone need to make an AC7 tv series. There is so many stories/characters you can explore here.

[@cnlbenmc]

And here I was hoping he was actually Scarface 1 at some point. If his last combat mission prior to AC7 was in 1991 than that's out the window.

[@Kurayami_13]

Even if it was not - FCU were basically at cold war with Erusea in 1990+. Not exactly the time to hire Erusean ex military pilot / active military instructor / test pilot. Not to mention Phoenix being known as mercenary prior to 1995 while Mihaly anything but mercenary.

[@draochvar9646]

Not just that, the fact Phoenix is bugging around in the XFA-27 throws that possibility out of the window entirely.

[@FelixDev]

Rose, the last short story in "Aces At War 2019", provided some information about the time of the first Kingdom of Erusea reformed into a republic. By the time of 2008, the old royal family has lived as commoners, for three generation. Rosa is the 4th generation of that family. It is unlikely that the reformation took place at 1990s.

[@FIRE_STORMFOX-3692]

A close friend of Mihai shot him of the face but he managed to take it on a non-critical area :D

[@hmshood9212]

I’m surprised Erusea didn’t call upon him to bring down the Ribbion.

[@Kurayami_13]

By the time Yellow 13 dies there are no one to call him.

[@hairohukosu433]

Love the music choice for the video

[@sovetskyskaiyastrigon1750]

Who would win in a 1vs1vs1 Pasternak,Yellow 13,Mihaly

[@ga8019]

AC2 squadron is named STFS Scarface. Could be a connection here.

[@Kurayami_13]

Probably not. At the time STFS Scarface emerged (1995 AIR COMBAT) Mihaly already was a test pilot for Erusea (not to mention military service prior) - not exactly someone who could emerge as mercenary for a FCU with all hostilities etc. Plus despite squadron named Scarface and call sign being Scarface One protagonist of both AIR COMBAT and ACE COMBAT 2 is Phoenix - a pilot who was know for being mercenary before 1995 plus he stayed in Usea (at least assumedly) between 1995 and 1998 (AC2) again not something someone from Erusia could achieve with things going bad enough for FCU to enlarge military presence on Erusean border.

[@SCARFACEPHOENIX]

Could be

[@SCARFACEPHOENIX]

@@Kurayami_13 all silent protagonists are the same person and that is Phoenix

[@lutenantsweedpertasa]

No wonder Erusea keeps loosing, all their pilots only know how to crash into their instructors.

[@bigezfire2390]

Mihaly was the best ace we didn't deserve, but the story we should of played.

[@Korrza_music777]

I replayed this game 16 times and still want more mihaly name is longer than the length of his SU-30 lmfao

0:30 I mean you wouldn't want to confuse him with someone else.

[@tieradlerch.217]

His aircraft skin remind me of Forgotten Legend Mercenary, Garm 1 Chiper lol

[@AemerFactory]

All Mihaly story is a reflect of ace combat player, our will to fly in ace combat at any cost, bringing new war, the envy to play with dumb ai, the moves we do in S rank to ensure missile Hit, the reaction of mihaly when railgun missed is a echo of our when an ennemy flying different than normal. He do not care about the ground like us. Quoting truth in FMA: "Who i am? I'm Mobius One, or perhaps Galm One or perhaps Wardog One or perhaps Razgriz One or perhaps Southern Cross or perhaps Scarface one or perhaps Garuda One and I'M YOU"

[@badasstasticusbadass4908]

Hmmm.... It kind of makes sense, since the default plane that Mihaly use is a Su-30 and Yellow 13 default plane was the Su-37 making them related somehow, Mihaly was Yellow 13 instructor, but, betwen the both, is still think Mihaly was better than Yellow 13, his fighting style is something that not much people can do (except us the player) since you will have to be absurly resilient and strong in order to resist all those high G's. It's not impossible to do, but an average pilot is not able to pull things like that.

[@f1r3rav3n]

Vash the stampede will now have a contender for long ass names :)

[@trova-evolution1348]

But is rare. In the game, the Professor said Mihaly was a Ace in the 2 lastest wars. So that's maybe think "Ace Combat 4 and 5?

[@sukositb]

If you guys think Mihaly name is long, you should see Picasso full name.

[@AICW]

Pablo Diego José Francisco de Paula Juan Nepomuceno María de los Remedios Cipriano de la Santísima Trinidad Ruiz y Picasso lol

[@MsRAZGRIZ1]

There is an interesting theory that is on the net that says that mihaly is the encarnation of an ace combat veteran player, the way he acts (waiting for the perfect shot while hunting a target, having fun when a worthy opponent appears, the quote "there are pilots like you in every generation..." basically describes the aces we have shot down in previous games, he attacks and does the job alone, every pilot thinks he is on another level and evades almost every missile) he ressembles the way of fighting of a veteran AC player, remember when he said that he wanted the war to continue so he could fly more, when you put that on the player perspective is true because we only can play when a war starts in strangereal

[@detergentrat1151]

Very true. All the while Trigger being a newer pilot might be a reference to someone entering the Ace Combat series, which is actually my case.

[@johniandy2108]

Mihaly's name is longest name.

[@jessierogers7801]

Because of how it movies , I know that SU'S have thrust hectoring nodules , but how he flus it is inhuman

[@AvroBellow]

I'm thinking that he trained Yellow 13 because he's MUCH older than Yellow 13. Yellow 13 was in his 20s during the Usean Continental War and Mihaly looks like he's in his 60s. The Usean Continental War was only MAYBE 20 years before the events of AC7.

[@naclynerickii]

The whole story this vid says about Mihaly sounds mostly right but honestly, I still been thinking back to a few things mentioned in Ace Combat 7 and what happened in Ace Combat 0: the Balken War. I still wondered in Ace Combat Balkan War if you have been Mihaly all along because of the fact that the "protagonist's" wingman betrayed him and defects to enemy forces and winds up getting juiced planes in the process. Also "The protagonist" has shot down some notable aces like a guy who becomes a famed general (I believe), an assassin turned pilot who winds up on the run afterward, and a husband and wife couple where the husband dies and the wife winds up becoming a famed dancer. On top of that I know the game explains prior to 5 about "the one group bombing themselves" where if I remember the stage right they were going to launch but had area instabilities (was a frozen area) so when the missiles took off they yes blew up on the immediate area. Also the wingman guy was quite the flyer and did the same tricks Mihaly does but after he gets shot down he hoped the best for "the protagonist". I remember in one part in 7 they do mention "Mihaly was around during the time of the Balkans" or something to that effect so Mihaly had to be somewhere in Ace Combat 0: The Balkan War. I used to own the game but sadly I sold it after I beat it. Was ok but wasn't as exciting as 5 was.
