"Yeah, they know we're here. Going loud."

Gus fires off a barrage of rockets and begins to fly erratically as the distraction flight enters the plaza.

[Badger]

"firing Plasma, might want to cover your eyes for a moment."

Walter fires the the plasma cannon, lighting up the street sides with bright light off the many windows.

Walter drops four chaff packages and disables his LAMS to save on its heat for the moment

"Incoming SAMs."

[ZombiLoin]

"Firing off at that beam array."

Faw aims for a second before firing off a volley at the beam array that just shot at Walt.

[Mr. Hurricane]

"Here we loving go!" Jaakko yells.

Jaakko fires a burst rockets into the carrier and begins pulling erratic maneuvers. He drops chaff to ward off any SAMs or perhaps mess with a targeting radar.

[NoZoner]

A faint glow briefly reflects off the roosterpit dashboard as the Skepna's plasma gun lights up the streets a ways away. Ash brushes off the distraction and begins setting his aircraft for the trench run: he extends the wings, drop the flaps, raises the tailplane stabilators back to their original dihedral canting, and trims the Wyvern to account for low speed flight and the change in wing geometry.

"Blackeye, coming up on the insertion point." Ash doggedly keeps the flight path marker centered on the waypoint marker.

[Badger]

Walter hunches over at the unexpected impact and ends up just shaking his head hoping that it doesn't hinder him.

"Fire effective, Aiming up the remainder of the tower now."

Walter Reactivates his LAMS and begins to take aim at the central structure as the plasma cools.

[Operator¹]

: Activate the guidance scrambler and have Culex-F and G stand by. Distraction team, you guys better deploy chaff and evade just in case.

[CypherX]

Gus drops four chaff, two flares and evades like his life depends on it - because it does.

[Mr. Hurricane]

Jaakko maneuvers the aircraft through a light show, finding a split second to take another shot. He fires the rocket pod while in maneuver, spreading the rockets nonsensically over the hull and continues evading, dropping three chaff. He can be heard grunting to control his breathing through the maneuvers.

[ZombiLoin]

Faw starts to line up a shot on the single-gun PPC turret.

Gus continues evading, seeding two more packets of chaff and turning on the turbocharger to disengage for another pass.
