Marco Jean-Fabian Montébello-LeClerc is a pilot in the Inyurstan Air Force, known as "Le Ninyo" (ENG: "the child") due to his (formerly) young age. It is also suspected that he may be fighter pilot behind "Le Bromisto" (The Joker); however, the aircraft in question was active in the Lolloh-Ruol Wars, while Montébello was not serving until later. He is in active service with the 36th Tactical Fighter Wing, where he pilots the AC-88E Taipan Block II.

Confirmed Kills

During the 2018 Bashriyyan-Tifyan War he is credited with a total of seven air-to-air kills and making him the first pilot to become a jet ace since the Lolloh-Ruol Wars.

On April 1st, 2018, Montébello was dispatched along with 3 other pilots. During the engagement, he was credited with visual confirmations of 2 Bashriyyan Su-22 tactical bombers attempting to breach Tifyan airspace. The result of the engagement overall saw 5 out of 8 Su-22 destroyed, with 1 unconfirmed shoot-down and 2 confirmed escaped/retreated. Again, on April 4th, Montébello and another pilot were dispatched to engage a pair of Bashriyyan Su-22's approaching allied positions. Both planes were engaged beyond-visual-range; but wreckage landed within Tifyan territory and both kills were confirmed, one of which was shot down by Montébello.

During Operation: Shocklight a number of AC-88E fighters found themselves fighting within-visual-range against Bashriyyan Arab Air Force (BaAAF) K-21 Kyofu fighters. Montébello is credited with 4 confirmed kills using short-range C-20 Sabre SRAAMs. This engagement also saw Montébello, among others, fire multiple longer-range C-120 Rapier LRAAMs but these kills cannot be confirmed due to their presence over Bashriyyan territory. A larger number of Kyofu wreckages were later identified on satellite in the Bashriyyan desert than were confirmed engaged WVR, though these cannot be credited to any one pilot and due to immature Bashriyyan fuel-per-sortie doctrine it cannot be ruled out that the planes did not crash for other reasons.
