Tasha in ACE COMBAT 8: WINGS OF THEVE is Tasha Severskaya, an Ensign and Joker Flight No. 3. She was a star pilot in Yuktobania's Zvezda aerobatic team before staying aboard the Endurance after war broke out. Her exact age is not confirmed yet.
Why is Tasha aboard the Endurance?
Tasha came aboard to shoot publicity footage. When war broke out, she ended up staying on the ship. Her background is in aerobatic flying, and her extreme maneuvers are part of her relationship with her wingman, Coster.
How does she know Baxter and Coster?
| Crewmate | Connection to Tasha |
|---|---|
| Baxter | She calls him “Teach.” They often study together in the ship's mess. |
| Coster | He can keep up with her extreme maneuvers and provide effective cover. |
Who is the man beside Tasha in the mess hall?
He is her father. In this mess-hall scene, Tasha identifies the man sitting beside her as her dad.
Does Tasha shoot down enemy aircraft?
Early dialogue thanks Tasha for distracting the enemy after she reports no shootdowns so far. A later conversation rejects the idea of painting a kill-score marking on her fighter because she does not need a reminder that she shot someone down.
The early “none so far” line describes that point in the story. It does not mean Tasha never shoots down an enemy aircraft.

Tasha's exact age and birth date are not confirmed yet as of October 7, 2026. There is no confirmed numeric age to give. Describing her as a teenager or estimating her birth decade does not establish her age.
