<< Locust 2 >>
“Commander, I have a lock on two bandits dead ahead. Wait. F-18’s.. The Imperials don’t have that.”

<< Locust Leader >>
“Shit, it’s the Peacekeepers. Looks like the soldiers of peace have taken a side. All aircraft, open fire on the tourists!”

<< Locust Squadron >>
“Yes sir!”

<< Fairy 3 | Adler >>
“Boss, I have a lock on one of the MiGs.”

<< Fairy 1 | Chaos >>
“Weapons free, Lieutenant.”

You and Erich fired a collective salvo of four Sidewinder air-to-air missiles toward the flight of MiGs just as they fired their payload of sixteen R-60 Aphids, half of which were locked on to you. The two of you performed an aileron roll with flares deployed, causing the missiles to overshoot and detonate at the rear, while one of your own missiles narrowly missed Locust 2. The other missile you’ve fired however is far more fortunate, having slammed itself against Locust 5’s wing. Erich’s, on the other hand, directly collided with Locust 3’s cockpit, taking the pilot out of commission.

<< Locust 5 >>
“Argh, Commander, my left wing is hit! But, I can still fight..”

<< Locust Lead >>
“No. 5, eject if you have to. I don’t want a pilot with a busted wing dragging us down. No. 3, what’s your status?”

<< Locust 4 >>
“We lost No. 3, sir.”

<< Locust Lead >>
“I see. He will be remembered.”

With the enemy ordnance destroyed, you along with Erich accelerated your aircraft at full throttle towards Locust and pierced through the gaps of their formation with the aim of positioning yourself at their rear ends. The enemy squadron climbed up towards the skies and broke out of formation in a sunburst-like pattern in response, pointing their red noses at your direction and aligning their gunsights on you and Erich through an acute Immelmann turn. Watching the pilots of Locust pull of such a maneuver in old Fishbeds, you couldn't help but think that if it wasn’t for war in this country, this squadron would have made for a damn fine aerobatics team.
