Mission 4: Stonehenge.

[Stonehenge Turret Network, Turkey. 1100 hours. July 8, 2019.]

Omega: "Whoa, look at that!"

Viper: "Shut UP, Omega!"

Reaper: "Whoa!"

UNF Squadron Pilot: "Rapier 2. I'm hit!"

Viper: "Heck of a welcome party!"

AWACS Sky-Eye: "AWACS Sky-Eye to all flights. We're ready to commence attack operations against Stonehenge. All aerial squadrons will support the advance of our ground forces. These ground forces will attempt to destroy the electronic countermeasure system in the center of Stonehenge. Once they do and your radar-based FCS is back online, you will begin to attack the main railgun."

Omega: "Roger. Roger! Just send me the data already!"

AWACS Sky-Eye: "Sending fire-zone data. Check your displays. Get out of the danger zone before my countdown hits zero. Spread out and support the ground forces. This blast may cause damage, even at low altitudes. Once you see the initial explosion, get away from the site immediately. Work your way around the secondary explosion!"

Reaper: "Incoming from Stonehenge!"

AWACS Sky-Eye: "Wave two incoming!"

Viper: "Get out of the danger zone! It's gonna mow you down!"

AWACS Sky-Eye: "Five, four, three, two...Impact!"

Reaper: "Argh!"

Omega: "Argh! The shockwave's crushing me!"

Bertz: "That thing can do ground strikes, too?!"

UNF Ground Soldier: "Railgun blast! Report damage!"

Bertz: "Keep going. If we sit still, we're just gonna take more casualties!"

AWACS Sky-Eye: "Incoming fire!"

Reaper: "Here's our chance for a little payback."

Reaper: "AA guns destroyed!"

Bertz: "This is Lieutenant Bertz of FAC. Alpha Team is heading for its goal point! We're being blocked by tanks up ahead. Requesting fire support."

Collins: "This is Sergeant Collins, Bravo Team. We need some CAS over here, too!"

Omega: "What are you crazy?! We're runnin' for our lives up here!"

Slash: "If you're just gonna mess around Omega, go do it back home."

Edge: "Hello there, pirates."

Omega: "Ugh, not Single Line again."

Reaper: "We're gonna win today."

Reaper: "Enemy tank destroyed!"

AWACS Sky-Eye: "Ground casualties are building up. All aerial flights give them support now."

Reaper: "Roger that!"

Collins: "This is Bravo Team. We're being blocked by crossfire; cannot advance forward! Where's our air support?!"

Slash: "Ridgeback'll handle it. All units, target hostiles blocking Bravo Team. Precision is key here."

Reaper: "Fox Two!"

Reaper: "Target destroyed."

Collins: "This is Bravo Team. We have visual on friendly aircraft approaching. About time you guys showed up!"

Viper: "Quit screwing around! Let's take 'em down!"

Omega: "What's the plan, Viper?"

Viper: "Just shoot whatever you can!"

Omega: "Roger that. Same as always then!"

Reaper: "Reaper, Fox Two!"

Reaper: "Hit."

AWACS Sky-Eye: "All squadrons, be advised, ground forces cannot advance. Support them now!"

UNF Squadron Pilot: "Ngh!"

UNF Ground Soldier: "Nice pinpoint strike there!"

UNF Ground Soldier: "This is Charlie Team! Our MBTs are being blocked! Holding fast and continuing artillery fire!"

Bertz: "Charlie Team can't move! 75% of ground forces still active!"

Reaper: "The barrage fire is too intense!"

Collins: "This is Bravo Team. We're en route once more. Thanks for the air support!"

Reaper: "Firing!"

Reaper: "AA guns destroyed!"

Reaper: "Enemy tank destroyed!"

Bertz: "Alpha Team 10km away from firing range to the ECM site! That railgun's still firing at us!"

UNF Ground Soldier: "This is Delta Team! We're starting to take damage! Requesting CAS!"

Bertz: "Delta Team just took cannon fire! We're down to 50% of our ground force! What're our air squadrons doing?!"

AWACS Sky-Eye: "Incoming fire!"

Slash: "Got 'em."

Edge: "Edge, target destroyed."

Viper: "Single Line's murdering us!"

Reaper: "Darn!"

Omega: "I can't even fly straight in these conditions!"

UNF Ground Soldier: "Enemy tanks destroyed! That was a Single Line craft that got 'em!"

Bertz: "I can see the rest of the squadrons. There's a sight for sore eyes."

Reaper: "Firing!"

Reaper: "Target destroyed!"

Bertz: "This is Alpha Team. We've reached the target point. Sorry to make you wait! Opening fire on the ECM site!"

AWACS Sky-Eye: "All units, stand by until ground forces complete their attack."

Reaper: "Roger."

Slash: "Weird. The railgun's gone dead."

Reaper: "There it is, Stonehenge."

Reaper: "Dang, that thing is huge!"

Reaper: "Fox Three!"

Reaper: "Hind is down!"

Reaper: "Watch out!"

Bertz: "Gaahh!"

AWACS Sky-Eye: "The ground forces are taking casualties. Alpha Team, what happened?"

Bertz: "The railgun's shooting right for us! Taking major damage. Unable to proceed with ops! Requesting retreat for now!"

AWACS Sky-Eye: "Oh my…"

Goodfellow: "Arrows commander to Sky-Eye. I have an idea."

AWACS Sky-Eye: "Good ahead."

Goodfellow: "With our air squadrons, we should be able to strike the ECM site directly."

AWACS Sky-Eye: "You…can?"

Omega: "Whoa, whoa, you serious?! Count me out, man."

Goodfellow: "We got no time to lose. Give me a response!"

AWACS Sky-Eye: "Roger that! Sky-Eye to all units. Change of plans. We need to destroy the ECM system from the air. We can't lay a finger on Stonehenge itself until the ECM's offline. Use your machine-gun fire to destroy the three ECM devices in the center of the circle."

Omega: "This is one way to keep things exciting, I suppose."

Viper: "Hey, Goodfellow. I want him to go in while I lure the railgun fire over to me."

Goodfellow: "Got it all set up for him, huh…Copy. Rookie, you're taking lead! Get in there!"

Reaper: "Roger that, Goodfellow."

Omega: "What?! We're going in?!"

AWACS Sky-Eye: "All units! Destroy the ECM site!"

Slash: "All Ridgebacks, we're going in."

Viper: "Right. Time for 'Viper's Ace Seminar 104'. When in doubt, always take the reckless route!"

Omega: "Well, whatever. This is Omega. I got your tsil."

AWACS Sky-Eye: "You can't lock on to it! Use your machine-gun fire to destroy the towers!"

Reaper: "Firing!"

Reaper: "Target destroyed. Two remaining."

Enemy Fighter Pilot: "Enemy squadron penetrating Stonehenge airspace!"

Enemy Fighter Pilot: "All ground forces, we need barrage fire! Don't let them destroy the railgun!"

Omega: "Rookie! This is all about guts! Keep your speed up, and you shouldn't take any serious damage!"

Reaper: "Target destroyed!"

AWACS Sky-Eye: "All on-site ECM units destroyed! Now you can lock on to the cannons! Permission to engage!"

Viper: "Nice! Great job, rookie!"

Slash: "Darn it!"

Viper: "Now it's payback time! Let's blow that sucker sky-high!"

Slash: "Ridgebacks, let's get back in this. That battery is ours."

Edge: "Roger that. We're not gonna let it end like this."

Omega: "Ooh, Single Line's back together, huh? Well, let's do it! Time to make me some scratch!"

Viper: "Not if I can help it, kid. You just watch me shut that mouth of yours in a sec."

Bertz: "The air team's opened a path for us! Alpha Team, Bravo Team, continue your advance!"

Reaper: "Those railguns are huge, man!"

Reaper: "Firing!"

Omega: "Opening data link!"

Reaper: "Target destroyed!"

AWACS Sky-Eye: "First railgun cannon destroyed."

AWACS Sky-Eye: "Data link connection lost."

Reaper: "Firing!"

Reaper: "Target destroyed!"

AWACS Sky-Eye: "Second railgun cannon destroyed."

Slash: "Get yourself back on track! We can't lose our tactical data link."

Reaper: "Firing!"

Reaper: "Target destroyed!"

AWACS Sky-Eye: "Third railgun cannon destroyed."

Fencer: "Blue on blue!"

Omega: "I can't see through the steam!"

Bronco: "Move outta my way!"

Axeman: "No, you move, pirates!"

Omega: "How many aircraft we got in this circle?! It's near-miss after near-miss."

Slash: "Maintain awareness of your fellow units at all times!"

Edge: "Coming through!"

Reaper: "Firing!"

Reaper: "Railgun cannon destroyed!"

AWACS Sky-Eye: "Confirmed hit on cannon! Three left."

Viper: "Almost got it."

Reaper: "Firing!"

Reaper: "Target destroyed!"

AWACS Sky-Eye: "Fifth railgun cannon destroyed."

Reaper: "Bogies heading this way!"

Bronco: "Right behind you!"

Reaper: "Right on his six!"

Viper: "Get 'em!"

Reaper: "Fox Two!"

Enemy Fighter Pilot: "Break! Break!"

Reaper: "He's down!"

Bronco: "What the heck's going on?!"

Fencer: "Move it, pirates."

Reaper: "Firing!"

Enemy Fighter Pilot: "Hit on main wing!"

Reaper: "You're not getting away!"

AWACS Sky-Eye: "Bandit down."

AWACS Sky-Eye: "Missile launched."

Reaper: "Goodnight."

AWACS Sky-Eye: "Good kill."

Reaper: "Locked on."

Reaper: "Say goodbye."

Reaper: "Going for the remaining railguns."

Reaper: "Firing!"

Reaper: "Target destroyed!"

AWACS Sky-Eye: "Sixth railgun cannon destroyed. One more left!"

Reaper: "You're history."

AWACS Sky-Eye: "Cannon destroyed."

Omega: "Woo-hoo!"

Reaper: "Woo-hoo!"

AWACS Sky-Eye: "Stonehenge installation neutralized! Great work."

Viper: "Good one."

Goodfellow: "Well done, Reaper."

Collins: "Which squadron took out the ECM system for us?"

AWACS Sky-Eye: "This is Sky-Eye. We had a few flights operating in there. Probably the Ridgebacks, though."

Bertz: "Yeah? It looked like a different group from down here."

Collins: "Well, thanks a lot, Single Line. We couldn't have done it without you."

Edge: "I, uh…"

Slash: "Prepare for debriefing back at home, Edge."

Edge: "…Copy."

Omega: "Dude, they're taking all the credit from our rookie here."

Viper: "Ha ha! Ahh, let 'em."

Goodfellow: "Goodfellow here. Don't worry about it. We're getting all the money. And on top of that, we've got a new phenom on our team. Think you're gonna make it past those growing pains, Reaper?"
