[Gojira]

[NoZoner]

"Crash! Remember the mission!," Richard cries out in an attempt to validate Bell's choice. I can't believe this stuff is actually happening!

The loyalists' entries in the Sabre's IFF systems are overridden and re-keyed as friendly.

"This is Sa- Mjolnir 2, engaging!"

Fighting every urge to back away, Richard gratingly pushes the power lever forward. He drags the lasersight over the undamaged renegade Rafale and presses for all guns.

[blockguy™]

I try to pop one of the jags with 2 HSM's.

[Mr. Hurricane]

"Sabre, we're looking at a loving international incident here!" Jaakko cries.

[Operator¹]

Bell launches a salvo of MML-7 missiles at the first four carrier jets that aren't crashing into the sea.

just barely got this in before i had to go get ready for work
Mission Theme

Fighting every urge to back away, Richard gratingly pushes the power lever forward. He drags the lasersight over the undamaged renegade Rafale and presses for all guns.

While out of optimal range of the lasers, their partially dissipated beams are enough to finish off the Rafale after a solid PPC hit.

I try to pop one of the jags with 2 HSM's.

Rafales 2 and 5 break off to evade the incoming missiles, 3 is shot down, and Jaguar 2 takes a hit. Tlacelel wipes out a Jaguar that had the misfortune to fly across his PPC gunsights.

: [What!? There's more of them?]
: [Reinforcements have been dispatched, do not let them reach the fleet!]

: [Change of plans. Major, take your flight and engage the stragglers. Order Mjolnir to follow me into the heart of the fleet. Join us when you are finished here.]
: Mjolnir, stay on the Sky Marshal, he is heading for the fleet! We are going to hang back and finish off these stragglers!

: [Oh, it's going to take a lot more than what you got to tail me, punk!]

Every member of Coaxoch's flight manages to tail one of the enemy fighters, with the exception of Rosseau. You should be able to follow Tlacelel without having to worry about anything hostile showing up behind you.

[Operator¹]

Bell follows the Sky Marshal's aircraft.

[Mr. Hurricane]

"Someone ask the Huit AWACS which ship in nuclear-armed, it should be the first one to go," Jaakko orders anxiously.

[Lockebox]

Roger flys in after Talclelelelel as he begins entry into the hotzone

[Mr. Hurricane]

Jaakko falls in on Tlacaelel.

"If this is a trap I will loving haunt you all forever," Jaakko swears.

[NoZoner]

Richard's Sabre falls into formation.

"Following orders from the enemy. stuff's really about to hit the fan, isn't it?"

[Qwepir]

"Someone ask the Huit AWACS which ship in nuclear-armed, it should be the first one to go," Jaakko orders anxiously.

A deep, thick-accented voice booming over the comms reveals that the AWACS can already hear you, and possesses at least one crewman who knows Aesthian (something that comes in handy when flying with a mixed-nationality squad like Coaxoch's).
: The renegades have stolen at least five nuclear cruise missiles carried by the Rafale. They possesses a warhead capable of up to a 300 kiloton blast, ten times the yield of the bomb Mercana dropped on the Kintharians. We have not detected any launches yet, their leader likely believes his garrison will be able to stop you before he needs to launch.

"Is that an aircraft Rafale or a ship?!"

[Operator¹]

Since they're cruise missiles it's probably safe to assume that they can be launched from carrier jets.

[Qwepir]

"Is that an aircraft Rafale or a ship?!"

: ...The plane. There is no ship named "Rafale".
