CAG here's the mission plan. My men would like you to join us. Read this quick and be in the airwing fast.
“Attention” Tiger’s “Attention”
Earlier today Hitman, El Cid, Jockey and my self flew CAP over G3 in Huston. We encountered a patrol of six Mk-IX Cylon Raiders. This type of raider was thought to have become obsolete and no longer used after the end of the Cylon war.
Either the Colonial Fleet jumped into the Twilight zone, or there is a very old Cylon Base Star operating in the vicinity of Houston, TX. I was told the location of G3 was an uncharted and safe location. Well, we proved that Intel to be wrong.
Tonight’s CAP mission, you will be escorted by Dutchman and I in one of the Assault Raptors. I have taken the liberty to arm the Raptor with one Nuke along with all the other missiles and gun pods just in case.
This leaves one Finger Four flight short handed. Tonight’s mission only, you will fly a modified formation with an extra Viper behind the secondary wingman’s position. We have never practiced this formation, but I’m sure you men will perform as the Cylon Exterminators I’m proud to fly and serve with.
Using the Raptors capability, we can perform a long range scan of the area without being detected and we will be able to strike without warning. I have searched the Colonial archives and added a known outdated Cylon frequency to our IFF beacon that will be activated before we reach the location of this morning’s battle. If the frequency works as planned it will allow us to get close enough without being detected to inflict serious damage to the enemy.
The Mk-IX with its Laser cannons and possible missiles has superior fire power compared to the MEC-A6 cannons the main armament of the Mk-II Viper. You will rely heavily on the eight HD-70 Lightning Javelin missiles carried in your dorsal fin for today’s mission.
It’s imperative that you make every shot count; your lives depend upon accurate shooting and fighting tactics that we have made our squadron what it is today.
If we encounter superior forces and locate their base of action, we will engage the Cylons and take out as many as possible. Then all Vipers will break off the attack as if retreating back to the Raven. Then, “FireFox” will target all Cylon Raiders in pursuit and they will never know what hit them. When you’re a safe distance away, I will launch the Nuke and destroy what ever it is that we find.
Any questions?
OK then, perform your pre-flight checks and skids up in fifteen on the starboard flight deck! ! ! ! !
Dismissed and Good Hunting! ! ! !
SO SAY WE ALL! ! ! !
