Having a history dating back prior to the Clavis Civil War, the Tigersharks have been a constant force within the West Clavis Air Force. With their start flying P-26 ‘Peashooters’, they would progress through the coming decades moving onto P-36, P-51, and eventually taking the F-86 into the jet age. The Tigersharks would start flying the F-5s they would become known for right before the outbreak of war in the 1960s, and would fly thousands of combat sorties through the war alongside Osean and Emmerian fighters.
Today the Squadron still serves flying the slightly more modernized F-5E. Despite their primary mission moving from direct fighter support to a fighter-bomber role, they have still been sortied on occasion to intercept East Clavis People’s Liberation Army Air Force bombers that violate West Clavis’ Airspace.
