Gus pops two packets of flares and targets the Gripen as he maneuvers out of the way. The distinct tone announcing that the MMS has successfully fired sounds in his headset. He catches the telltale cloud of white smoke out of the corner of his eye as he lines up on Rafale-4. The LCPs shriek to life and several controlled bursts shoot towards the enemy pilot pursuing Sabre.

Missile after missile crashes into the Gripen, blowing it to pieces and then blowing the pieces to even smaller pieces. The Rafale, however, is unfazed by your light show, and attempts to get behind Sabre.

"Woo! Good stuff, Razorbacks!"
I loop around and try to latch on to a Viggen, pushing my Razorback to its limits.
I really need a new aircraft.
The Viggens are currently occupied trying to evade Sabre, allowing you to sneak up on them without enough resistance to justify a roll.
