COD Characters as Different Military Aircrafts
———
Soap -> A-10 Thunderbolt: Known for its loud and heavy gatling gun, outstanding close air support and its durability against damage. Its fierce and accurate air defense marks it as one of the best support aircrafts to exist.
Ghost -> B-2 Spirit: Advanced stealth tactics and its ability to easily evade enemy detection to reign down its deadly force makes this bomber, a ghost in the sky.
Roach -> F-14 Tomcat: Despite its air superiority and esteemed long range capabilities, the uncommon design of its “variable-sweep wings” marks it as the most distinctive and intriguing aspect of the aircraft.
Gaz -> AH-64 Apache: Designed for high survivability and equipped with advanced technological targeting components makes it one of the best air support aircrafts in active service.
Price -> P-51 Mustang: An oldie but a goodie; was the star of the show in its prime with its outstanding range of speed, maneuverability, durability, and it’s skill to adapt quickly to different conditions.
Laswell -> E-3 Sentry: Designated for surveillance, communications, and command; it’s your eyes in the sky.
Rudy -> KC-135 Stratotanker: You can always count on this aerial refueling tanker. When in need of support when you’re down, it’s got your back, always loyal to its allies.
Alejandro -> F-15 Eagle: Was built for extreme power, resilience, agility, and to display its aggressive dog-fighting capabilities proving it better than the feared oppositions. Never lost a fight protecting what it stood for.
Valeria -> F-22 Raptor: This jet’s extreme capability to fly nearly completely invisible through radars makes it dangerous in its attacks. The state of the art technological advances allows it to fool anyone who comes across, creating a perfect chance to strike and claim victory.
Graves -> V-22 Osprey: Although its dodgy components can wear the reliability of this aircraft thin, it’s service is still exceptional.

If you want a part 2, recommend some characters below for me to do next @_@
The U.S. Air Force's E-3s have been halved from a Cold War peak of 34 aircraft to 16 due to retirement from aging, and moreover, their availability rate is in the 50% range
In other words, only 8–9 aircraft are operational across the entire U.S. military, and since 6 of those have been concentrated in the Middle East, the remaining operational aircraft for the homeland, Europe, and Asia combined amount to just 2–3
If one aircraft were lost here, it would be necessary to bring an operational one from somewhere
From where?

Trying to handle the E-3 successor with satellite constellations and drones isn't the wrong direction at all.
For near-peer scenarios where lumbering AWACS become necessary, their low survivability is the issue, and if it can fly, the need gets pretty thin.
Taiwan's going for a pragmatic, long-haul approach, so canceling the E-7 makes sense.
