As one of the few Emmerian Air Force units permanently stationed on the Khesed Island, the 120th Fighter Intercept Squadron plays a critical role in the defense of Emmeria’s western coast. While most of their air taskings are interceptions of suspicious air traffic along the Strait, they do stand as an alert squadron to counter any potential hostile force that approaches the nations air space.

Since the mid 1980’s, the squadron has flown and mastered the specially modified F-16 Air Defense Fighters, though with the airframes continuing to build up hours and age related fatigue, the National Guard Bureau has slowly begun phasing the Vipers out for the newer produced Mirage 2000 interceptor fighters. However, budgetary concerns have limited the amount of aircraft provided, as well as the more advanced Super 350 BVR missile to the squadron, leaving them with AIM-7 Sparrows of questionable reliability flown on aircraft with service careers rivaling some of Emmeria’s senior most officers.

While derogatory comments could be made about the work ethic of those assigned to the 121st Fighter Intercept Squadron, what cannot be challenged or derided is the combat ability of the Copperheads Vipers and Mirages.

Stationed at Enzio Air National Guard base in the deserts north of Gracemeria, the 121st has proven time and again to be one of the most combat-effective squadrons within the Air National Guard, challenging the likes of active duty units such as of the 1st or 8th Air Divisions.

Pilots assigned to the Copperheads enjoy a more relaxed nature of the reservist squadron, allowing many the flexibility and stability of civilian life along with their military duties. In every military readiness drill though, the 121st has been able to rise to the occasion, and time will tell if this streak will continue into a real conflict.

Established in 1944, flying the P-47 Thunderbolt, the Roosters have been a mainstay of the First Fighter Division in Mante, Emmeria. Alongside the 1st Fighter Squadron ‘Aurelius’, and 52nd Fighter Squadron ‘Joker’; they stand on Emmerias eastern border, keeping a watchful eye on their longtime geopolitical rival across the line.

The Roosters came to some limited attention in 1995 During the Belkan War. While not committing any combat forces to the conflict, Emmeria underscored their support of the refugees displaced by the conflict and set about a massive Airlift operation moving supplies from Anea into Osea. Escorting this mission was multiple units in the REAF, Including the 16th FS.

Fictional Ace Combat 6 Emmerian Air Force 8th Air Division 28th Fighter Squadron "Garuda" livery for F-15E.

Established in 1966, the 15º Gruppo, commonly known as Windhover Squadron, is a component of the 8º Stormo flying out of Gracemeria AFB to defend the capital city of Emmeria. During the celebrations for the squadron's 50th anniversary in 2016 Estovakia invaded, with the element of surprise pushing Emmerian forces west to the island of Khesed, including the 8º Stormo and Windhover along with it. Flying throughout the war alongside their more famous sister squadron, 28º Gruppo "Garuda" flying the F-15EM Attack Eagle, the 15º put up a fierce resistance to the invading forces, ultimately managing to push the Estovakians back completely and liberating all of the occupied territory. Shortly thereafter, alongside Osean naval forces, the Emmerians destroyed the Chandelier railgun complex in the eastern sea. This aircraft, 12-0032, was piloted by the unit's commanding officer, Mag. Daniel Pollini who scored 23 kills throughout the conflict including one member of the infamous Strigon Squadron

There are many ways to die in the harsh northern expanses near Fensalir, Emmeria. Between the drifting ice sheets, blinding super-blizzards and unforgiving wilderness, many wouldn’t fault a wayward explorer or lost military patrol to succumbing to the Razgriz. However, if you happen to be a surface to air missileer, there is one more threat the north has to offer.

The 128th “Big Irons” Fighter squadron.

Hailing from Fensalir Air Base, just south of the Straits is one of the only Air National Guard units of the Emmerian Air Force to specialize in the Suppression of Enemy Air Defenses (SEAD) or more affectionately known as “Wild Weasel” by its pilots. Despite flying largely obsolete F-4 Phantoms; The Big Irons are deadly efficient with their array of AGM-45 ‘Shrike’s, Mark-82 ‘Snake-eye’ bombs, or the AGM-88 HARM thanks to their recently acquired F/A-18 Hornets.

Whether the threat be in the air or on the ground, rest assured the Big Irons are deadly no matter what adorns their fighter

One of the few Emmerian Units in Khesed, the 120th Fighter Interceptor Squadron has a critical role in the defense of the Western part of Emmeria. Not only intercepting suspicious traffic within the Khesed Strait, but as well being the alert squadron for most of the Island, thanks to Bauer Air National Guard Bases strategic location at the heart of the Island.


Pilots here have flown and mastered the special built F-16A ADF, but as of Q4 of 2013 have been receiving specially modified Mirage 2000C to replace the aging vipers, however budget concerns have limited the aircraft, stifled their supply of the better Super 350 BVR missile and hamstrung the squadron with AIM-7 missiles of questionable reliability and F-16s with longer service careers than most General officers.
