Ace is a character from the toyline, comic books and cartoon series of the 1980s. He is the G.I. Joe team's original fighter pilot and debuted in 1983. His real name is Brad J. Armbruster, and his rank is that of air force captain O-3. Ace was born in Providence, Rhode Island.

Ace was originally the pilot for the Skystriker. He would rather fly planes than anything else, working during high school to pay for flying lessons. He enlisted in the USAF at age 22 and later transferred to the G.I. Joe team. He is a cutthroat poker player who apparently never loses.

He first appeared in the animated series in the A Real American Hero mini-series, and was voiced by Pat Fraley.
