Blackwater's voice comes over the radio.

"Bombers approaching, heading 2-2-0, altitude angels 25, vector to target, zero, range 130 miles,"

"Here we go,"

I hope that alcohol has burnt off.

"Eta 6 minutes." The air begins getting a bit turbulent.

Danna Mahler, I guess.

"We have eyes on target, please direct attention to bandits approaching to defend the last of Cartelia, that are about 6 minutes out, sending coordinates to Wasp's flight computer. Go get them boys, for Nerverak." 5 fighters break from the formation and head toward Xavier and Marko.

The officer sits back in his seat, flipping a coin. "Tails for Nerverak." The officer sits back and smiles as a heads appears. Still going to beat them, he thought.

"Megalith, Tempest, stay on my ass. We've got bandits on radar. We'll let the rest take care of 'em. We need to get to those bombers." I pull back on the stick and begin climbing.

"AMRAAMs in range, firing," I say, releasing drop tanks, and firing two AMRAAMs.

"Copy."
I drop my tanks and pull back on the stick. I lock on to a bomber and fire an AMRAAM. The bomber's fuselage section is hit, and is torn to shreds when the bombs detonate. I fire another missile, which hits the roosterpit of the bomber. I fire one last missile and knock the tail off the bomber. I lock on and fire one last time, but the motor of the missile doesn't activate. Four launched, one failed, and three hit.
"Splash three targets. I'm out of AMRAAMs."

"forget, we got a bomber down. Wasp, break from the group and take care of that guy!"

Wasp breaks off and heads toward Steele, he locks on and fires one AMRAAM.

I pop chaff and break off.
"Oi, forget you."
I fire a missile straight back and tear his plane to shreds.

"Break, just break." I turn out of the formation and begin engaging enemy bombers.

"Marko, one on your tail, break off!"
I fire a Sidewinder at a bomber, tearing off its left wing.

Also Watcher it's an F-15E Strike Eagle now. I'm not sure what purpose the copilot serves. Radar?

The AMRAAMs I fire both hit. One is a confirmed kill. I fire two more, and those bombers go down in a slow, burning fashion. I line up on the wing of the next bomber, and fire my gun right down it's wing. Smoke pours from it, as the bomber roles over.

The RWR blares, before I have time to react, something big explodes.

*BOOM*

The aircraft spins wildly, but isn't burning. An alarm blares in the roosterpit. I am loosing altitude rapidly.

The Flatpack recovers easily. I pull up just above the cloud layer. The displays report forward and rear radar failures, hydraulics jammed, radio transmitter damage, and airframe damages.

"This is Te-pest, I -een -it. Th fa-pac is damaged, I'm fi- tho,"

Fuel reports it's leaking but the leak is closing.

"T-st, egress- bal-space,"

The alcohol. It had to be the alcohol..

A white plane with red, blue, and white lights pulls Xavier to the side of the air.

The pilot walks out and walks in mid-air toward Xavier, knocking on his roosterpit window. "Yes, officer?"

"You missed that red light a coupl-," The officer sniffs the air. "Do I smell alcohol?"

"No sir!" Xavier looks down.

"Please step out of the Flatpack, and place your hands against my plane."

"Tempest, I understand you are hit. Egress and proceed to home plate."

The RWR suddenly beeps as two contacts appear on the display. I bank my aircraft and turn around, scanning the horizon for any indication of bandits in the area. I'm able to make out two dots moving just above the cloud layer before hearing the missile warning tone. A smoke trail stems from the foremost aircraft.

"Tally two, four o'clock low! Swordsman, defending Fox 1!"

I pull up and away from the missile before jinking and dropping chaff. The missile sails past, having lost too much energy in the climb to approach effectively. Wasting no time to engage I quickly turn and dive down on the hostile element.



well since watcher just restructured the chain of command, how about we decide on the 86th's nickname so that we have a squadron callsign to refer to? i'd be glad to make a shield if anyone is interested in seeing it

oh yeah, happy 86th page everyone

"C-py,"

The flight is slow because I can't use supercruise, because it would likely destroy the aircraft.

-sorrypostedonaccident-

I begin shooting down escort fighters while everyone focuses on the bombers. I pull up behind a F-16 and fire my machine guns into the engine. I pull away from it. The plane goes under a chain reaction which results of the plane being destroyed 10 seconds later.  Notably, a pilot is confused on why it just exploded in mid-air.
