Rigley Air Force Base was featured in Ace Combat 04: Shattered Skies. The base was built in a Usean state a short time before Erusea declared war. When Erusea took advantage of the other nations falling, they successfully captured Rigley Air Force Base. Erusean bombers could then leave Erusea, fly to the airbase, and launch a surprise attack on North Point. They did this because retreating Rigley Base forces moved to Saint Ark in North Point. This would allow Erusea to win the war and destroy ISAF.
Geography
Edit
Rigley Air Force Base was built on the rural and hilly areas which are south of North Point. It is assumed that it was built at its location to avoid enemy air raids or bombings. However Erusea had managed to capture it, despite ISAF's efforts. During the air attack on Rigley by ISAF Air Forces, the Erusians suffered heavy air and ground losses. They lost all their Tu-95 Bears and lost most of their Air Defense Forces, which included F-4E Phantom IIs and F-5s. They also lost one of their aces, Cliffred, who flew the only A-10 at the base.
