mobius 1
"Amidst the blue skies, a link from past to future. The sheltering wings of the protector... The flames of hatred scorched the skies... Igniting Gaia's funeral pyre."
Protagonist and player character of the game Ace Combat 04. Lead pilot of the Mobius squadron, part of the I.S.A.F. Air Force, and flies an F-22 Raptor.
Not much is known about the past or future of Mobius 1. Throughout the game he seems to be the only member of his squadron, alongside his AWACS codenamed Sky Eye, which doesn't seem to faze him at all as he nearly singlehandedly puts Erusea to their knees with an almost inhuman combat performance.
However his surviving allies from previous missions join the squadron for the final mission against the Megalith facility.
The callsign "Mobius" comes from the mobius strip, a 3-dimensional shape which only has one side. It is commonly referred to the real-world representation of the word "infinity."
A möbius strip makes up the major part of the squadron insignia (post #717018).
In 2023, the Chinese Balloon incident suddenly became a trend and referenced the 13th Mission known as "Safe Return" where Mobius 1 shot down the Jamming Airships throughout the mountains while escorting a spy plane.
