Gray Fox is a fictional character in Hideo Kojima's Metal Gear series.

The original Metal Gear game introduces Gray Fox (グレイ・フォックス, Gurei Fokkusu^?, spelled "Grey Fox" in the MSX2 games) as a high-ranking agent of FOXHOUND as the "Fox" codename being the highest commemoration within the unit. Prior to the game's events, he goes missing during a mission to Outer Heaven with his last transmission being a cryptic message simply saying "Metal Gear". After being rescued by Solid Snake, Fox reveals TX-55 Metal Gear's true nature to the player.

Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake revealed that Gray Fox left FOXHOUND and defected to Zanzibar Land. Fox pilots the advanced model Metal Gear D and confronts Solid Snake a few times, while secretly assisting Snake as an anonymous informant. Fox's past is fleshed out in this game; his civilian identity Frank Jaeger (フランク・イェーガー, Furanku Yēgā^?, "Frank Yeager" in the MSX2 version) is revealed to have a relationship with former Czech figure skater Gustava Heffner (Natasha Marcova in the MSX2 version) after they met in Calgary and fell in love. Gustava tried to seek asylum with him in America, but failed and was stripped of her competition rights as a result. Following this incident, Frank developed a great deal of resentment toward his superiors, but was unaware that Gustava later joined the StB and is present in Zanzibar as Dr. Kio Marv's bodyguard. During his and Snake's first direct encounter as enemies, Fox's piloting of the Metal Gear accidentally causes Gustava's death. After Snake destroys Metal Gear, Fox challenges Snake to a fistfight in the middle of a minefield and is apparently killed.
