I lock onto one of the Jaguars and fire a missile.
The Jaguar maneuvers away and drops some flares, evading the missile, breaking off and retaliating with its own heatseeker.
By the time I level off, I find myself a couple thousand feet above the Jags. I pitch down and let loose a heatseeker before pulling back up to climb.
"Fox 2 short on the bandit Jag!"
The Jaguar has less room to move and doesn't pitch away nor toss out flares quickly enough. The missile strikes the fuselage and the plane goes down, trailing fire. Two Grippens break off and attempt to pursue.
ask for identification from team on aircraft pursing me, stay alert for missiles
Judging from the loud screeching of your aircraft's radar-lock sensors, and the three bright little things behind you, it would be safe to conclude that you have three missiles after you, presumably launched from the group of two Grippens and a Viggen chasing after you.
There are three missiles chasing after you.I loose two JSMs at the Jaguars before following up with a Heatseeker. "Keep a lookout for the bombers when they come within range, your priorities have not changed, intercept the Jaguars first and stall the enemy force as long as you can." I sigh and look ahead at the enemy planes before rolling to the left to gain a bit of altitude.
The first JSM whiffs as the SEPECAT's pilot banks left, the missile narrowly passing by the aircraft's left wing. The second JSM slams into the fuselage and knocks the aircraft out of control, the pilot regaining control about 700 meters up and almost scraping the ground. The aircraft appears unstable and heavily damaged.
