Established in 1975 flying the F-4E, the Makos would upgrade to their eponymous F-16s in 1989, and would be a feared adversary during the Belkan War. Mako F-16s were some of the first fighters to drop bombs on the Ustian Capital the first night of the war.
Later on in the conflict the 145th would be pushed back across the border by Coalition forces, taking up a defensive position near Weissenwald.
Following the war, the Makos were one of the few largely intact fighter squadrons within the Belkan Air Force and would help form the backbone of the beleaguered military during its rebuilding.
In 2021 the Makos would be one of the many squadrons deployed into Usea during the joint-security mission around Tyler Island before rotating back to Belka in early 2022. Today the Makos operate out of Hertzog Air Base in Southern Belka.
