"Now's not the time, Turtle. We need to take care of these starfishs before they take care of us."
I drop a flare (how many do I have?) and turn sharply to avoid the heatseekers.

3. Now you have 2.

I fire the a half salvo of the MMS at the helicopter.
You can't do this. You either fire 6 or you fire 0. This has been stated before.
MRM6s always fire a full salvo of 6 missiles with each trigger pull

The helicopter you're shooting at doesn't make any attempt to evade the incoming munitions and looks like it's about to be hit, when at the last moment, the chopper is bathed in a green aura and everything veers off in different directions instead of hitting it. The second one seems to be chasing after Steele, shooting at him with its chin gun and landing an alarming number of hits. A lesser plane would probably be in some serious trouble.

Coaxoch: "Yeah. Not a fan of your tone right now."

And now, in addition to pissing off the enemy experimentals, you seem to have pissed off your squad leader as well.

Incoyotl: "[Sorry we are late, do you require assistance over there?]"

Coaxoch: "[Everything is under control. Terrorists stole some Dragons, we're engaging them now.]"

don't let them take out the MANPADs

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.

Targets requiring immediate attention:
8x Saab Gripen
4x Saab Viggen
4x SEPECAT Jaguar

Targets not requiring immediate attention:
Everything else


I fire at the helicopter-thing that is chasing Steele with the MMS-6.

Coaxoch: "Yeah. Not a fan of your tone right now."
whose?
oh probably me

"Sorry." I say truthfully.


I make an attempt to shoot down the other helicopter (the one that blocked the missiles) with my machine gun, while attempting to evade the other helicopter.

5 - 2 = 4

don't think that damaged Jaguar is much of a threat now

I fire at the helicopter-thing that is chasing Steele with the MMS-6.
It pops its own repulsor field and continues firing on Steele with the chin gun, landing several more hits.

I make an attempt to shoot down the other helicopter (the one that blocked the missiles) with my machine gun, while attempting to evade the other helicopter.
The other one's repulsor had apparently run out of juice, as it sits there and takes the hits from the cannon. On fire and in a panic, it turns and flees towards the airship before being picked off by your squad leader.

Coaxoch: "Quick, before it recovers its shield! Shoot another Block!"

Are the planes still out of my missile range?

They've been in missile range for a while now.

5 - 2 = 4

don't think that damaged Jaguar is much of a threat now

It's still up in the air. Somehow. You can probably ignore it and it'll explode or if the roll goes horribly horribly wrong it launches a missile at the last minute or crashes into a mission objective.
Who knows. It'll probably not happen anyways.

I shoot another Block at the airship.

I then immediately turn and fire my cannon at the helicopter once more (the one chasing Steele).

Uslar pulls up above cloud level and releases flares+chafe

"I have some guys on my tail prime for the picking guys, have at them!"

Uslar then rolls to the right and increases airspeed

I lock on to two Jaguars with my JSMs and fire them before pitching down the nose of my aircraft to intercept the damaged Jaguar. "AWACS, I need an update on the proximity of the primary targets to the facility."

"Heatseeker... Okay..."
Simon presses a button and flares pop from the back of his jet.
