Ellie uses the turbocharger to try to get past Scorch so that she can start gunning for the Fenrir's rear.

The Wyvern surges forward, speeding towards the Fenrir almost as fast as the missiles you fired just prior. When the burst of speed wears off, you find you have passed the Fenrir.

"Oh boy, now to wait for him to show up again."

Ellie waits for a few seconds to let the Fenrir close in before she starts making tight maneuvers to make it difficult for the Fenrir to tail her.

Walter finally speaks up from the back and moves forward a bit towards the rest of the group. "That fenrir feels like such a gimmick; There's got to be a better way of using it if the NAUC keeps funding them to be built. Isn't there another squadron that has several of them? Was their name Kraxe? I want to find out how they use them if we're going to continue to use this thing on later missions."

[Mr. Hurricane]

"You use the cloak to pick and choose where and when to fight, and leverage and milk that gimmick for everything it's worth. Unfortunately when you're not cloaked your just an above average fighter. As interesting as the Fenrir is I really wonder how much better the thing would be if they dropped the cloak and made in supermaneuverable,"

: It seems like it would be more useful the more of them you have. A squadron of four repeatedly engaging and disengaging their cloaks can easily give the impression that you're going up against twice as many planes unless you're watching each individual one.
: So give it a distraction. Something big and threatening to draw the enemy's focus while the Fenrir gets into position. Then you drop cloak and bam! If there's anything left, they gotta decide between fighting the Fenrir or fighting the distraction, while wondering if another invisible plane is about to get the drop on them.

Markus decides that cloaking is just a neat gimmick in a 1v1 fight, uncloaks, and opens fire with two AAMs.

"There he is."

Ellie drops a salvo of flares and goes evasive, firing two AAMs in retaliation.
