A beeping sound erupted in all cockpits, a warning used by the AWACS to state mission objective changes or any other extremely important information. Just as the beeping sounded, the first blips started appearing on the top of the radar screens.
"Wind Read here. The Sapin Airforce has been engaging the Belkans for a while, and are having a bad time at it. We'll take over air combat operations as planned. The enemy the Saps have been facing are now three F-16Cs, another three F-16Cs, and four Mig-29s. Crow will take on the Migs, Fenrir will take on the F-16Cs. Brigand, slip in from the east and attack the targets. That's all!"
For so young a commander, Wind Read kept himself fairly composed. Miranda could tell he was a good fellow to have above.
"Ok people, you heard him!" Her radar displays changed to highlight Fenrir's objectives.
The F-16Cs were at high altitude, dealing with three Sapin F-14s. The Mig-29s were attacking the Sap ground forces... but then they changed course for them. They seemed to be overly confident, and well appraised of the situation.
"Very well, let's do this! Fenrir 2, follow me, we are attacking the northern-most Falcons. Fenrir 3, you and 4 deal with the closest. We will speed past the Migs at maximum speed, we will distract them for a few seconds for Crow to get the advantage. Brigand, you do your thing."
Miranda pulled the throttle and accelerated slowly, letting Fenrir 2 tail her closely. She would have to work with Vanya on this, and hope for the best from the Belkan mercenary. Oh, and Ivanova too... Jack would have to keep up with her in his Harrier. She was worried about what Fenrir's performance would be like in this, their first battle together, but that worry disappeared as adrenaline surged forwards, and her body was pushed against her seat by the Gs.
Ok... here we go...
Miranda offered a short, hardly pious prayer for Shadow to find that AWACS as soon as possible. Once the Belkans were done with the Saps, or these retreated, it would be a full-blown dogfight with enemies that outnumbered them, nevermind the AA defenses. Those were still a distance away, and Brigand could slip in if they glided a few feet over the ground, but the Belkans would probably try to attract them to their coverage net and things would become a furball quite fast. Arming her missiles, Miranda spared glances at the radar as she watched the distance between the mercenaries and the Belkans disappear at a fast rate...
----
The Stealth's radar picked up signals two minutes before Miranda entered attack speed. Four aircraft high above, roughly at 25.000 feet. One of the signals was noticeably bigger... this one was the AWACS, no doubt, but what would the other three be? When the F-117 was close enough, Uriem would know...
OOC: The combat will take place by turns, each lasting around 20 seconds. This first turn, nothing can be fired. Next, only XLAAs. Next, only XMAAs. At the start of the following one, enemies will be within multi-role missile and gun range.
That's four turns. Brigand goes past all that and straight to the ground targets.
When you post your attacks, do it this way: God-mod your maneuvers, and then finish with the attack you intend to use (or if you use no attack, don't write that). I'll tell you if the attack works. This is more so you can have free reign in writing some Top-Gunish fiction than for me to judge the dogfight, though.
