For the record, Taya posted this one. Roger gives manly grunts. as he evades like a champ (and yes he did pop the chaff that part was true)

She continues looking for anything else that's out of place, flying towards radar range in front of the transport.

The planes are finally revealed, on the edge of your missile range.

Mission Theme

[CypherX]

oh gods please no


Gus had read about this particular Helian plane on obscure and most likely illegal sites for fun during his time in college. It had become something of an amusing lightning rod amongst those who browsed with him, attracting passionate responses ranging from a useless waste of seemingly infinite Helian resources to a half-mechanical half-magical personification of the Pantheon's wrath; these debates were a staple of their inside humor. Gus frequently had taken a dismissive opinion of its capabilities, but now, seeing it in the flesh, he can't help but seriously fear those doomsday prophets were accurate in their estimates.

"Bad news, I've got their rescue party on my scope, it's a Helian air-superiority model with two Nosferatus and three Tukrebs. I don't know if the Helian plane is manned or unmanned."

Ellie fires two seekers and one AAM at Tukreb-3 and splits off to the right to try to lure the fighters away.

Somebody is coming back in a casket.

[Mr. Hurricane]

"Oh, Gods!" Jaakko curses.

Jaakko fires one HSM at Turkeb 1.

"Whiskey, we're going to need your TAGs for that Hyperion, got it?"

[CypherX]

"which ones commander?"

"all of them, Berija))))))))))"

[Operator¹]

"Oh, Gods!" Jaakko curses.

Jaakko fires one HSM at Turkeb 1.

"Whiskey, we're going to need your TAGs for that Hyperion, got it?"

good luck actually hitting them because you're completely out of range

[Qwepir]

no, hes in range
they just entered missile range, which is why you can spot them (as they all have stealth)

[Operator¹]

oh ok

[Gojira]

why not focus them all down one at a time

[Operator¹]

why not focus them all down one at a time

we can buy more time this way

plus you don't want them anywhere near the shikra or the transport

that's fair

[Badger]

Walt forms near the transport to make use of both LAMS

"Priming PPC to fire a shot, fully expecting those gauss rifles to punch back. Hopefully they don't have their own scrambler, At least we have triangulation."

Walt fires two HSM at Turkeb-3

[CypherX]

Gus fires off two HSMs on Tukreb-1.

"Crash, call targets. We need to make the best use of our Munitions as possible."

[Mr. Hurricane]

"The Hyperion is primary, Whiskey, Gus, Tippy, let's get it. Walt, be cautious. Ellie, Glad, cover Walt, attempt to engage the Nosferatus. Raiden, Djuriskas, can you occupy the Turkebs for us?" Jaakko chatters.

His stomach sinks as he is faced with adversaries more than capable of killing him.

"Keep distance in between yourselves, I do not want you getting caught in a Vortex Missile burst. Beam Defense Maneuvers are going to be indispensable to our success, do not forget it. We are in missile range. Begin firing,"

"Locks on the Hyperion! I've already fired on the Turkeb like an idiot-," he reports.
