Established in the mid 1980s during a period of heightened tensions within Usea; The 182nd Fighter Squadron ‘Falcons’ would become a vital aspect of the country's air dominance strategy. First seeing Action against insurrectionist forces in 1997, the Squadron would earn their colors in 2003 during the initial Invasion into the Usean continent. The Squadron would secure vital air corridors against ISAF forces, only being forced to surrender with the fall of the Whiskey Corridor in 2005.
In the Interwar period, the squadron would be downsized, to the point of deactivation, until 2018 saw the rapid expansion of the Royal Erusean Air Force. Forced to fly aircraft that had been pulled from the boneyard, the Squadron would be tasked during the Lighthouse War with interdicting Osean bombers sent to attack key Military Facilities.
Today the Squadron operates alongside its sister unit, the 171st TFS at Neuville Airbase in eastern Erusea.
