Chapter 196: Air Battle

On the runway, a flotilla of P47 Thunderbolt piston-engined fighter aircraft is being boarded one by one by its pilots who rushed out from their barracks as soon as they heard the blaring alarm that boomed in the field.

An emergency report stated that a squadron of Yamato aircraft is approaching the Vladivostok airspace within five minutes with an intention to bomb strategic points of the city, crippling the defenses of the city, and leading ultimately to the city's destruction.

Unfortunately for the Vladivostok Air Station, the main fighter aircraft of the Ruthenian Air Force, the Wraith, is not yet delivered. So, they'll have to face the Yamato head-on in an old-fashioned dogfight.

The personnel on the ground who were waving lightsticks guided the aircraft on the runway, where they will be launched into the sky one by one, circle around the base until a whole squadron is airborne, and head towards the unwanted visitors.
