The second F-16 Squadron assigned to the 224th Fighter Wing in Roca Roja was a controversial choice for the OADF leadership. Historically the 161st Fighter Squadron had been one of the primary instructional units for pilots assigned to the F-16 airframe, and for the past fifteen years had been the hosts of the Chaldea Exercise held at Arixo Air Base yearly. When asked about it, Squadron Commander Major Diamante McCue explained “Whether we like it or not, the F-16 is on its way to replacement in the coming decade. Already three historic Viper squadrons have replaced their aging airframes with the newer and more capable F-35. The way I see it, the Desperados going out as an operational squadron is the best case scenario. And while our day may come soon for the final flight of the F-16, while we’re out here we're going to make a difference and show what the Vipers can really do.”

With the establishment of the 224th Fighter Wing in Roca Roja, Usea, The Gorgons made were transferred to their second wing assignment in as many years. Following their middling performance during the Lighthouse War, Osean Air Defense Force Chief Of Staff General Mike Dugan personally relieved the Squadron’s former commander of command and subsequently had the unit deactivated citing a ‘severe loss of confidence’ following a near forty five percent attrition rate of pilots in the opening hours of the Eruseans attack in May of 2019 on bases in Osea. The unit would only stay dormant for a year though with a reactivation and new leadership in March of 2022. Now on the heels of reactivation and transfer into active duty. The Gorgons have made the shift from the 27th Fighter Wing into the 224th as the first of two all-weather multi-role units assigned into the 225th Fighter Group.

While not as glamorous as the Fighters or Strikers, its hard to say that Electronic Attack Squadron 133 doesn’t pull their own weight when it comes to air wing operations aboard the OFS Vulture.

Established as a EA-6B Squadron in 1991, they would serve aboard the OFS Buzzards reserve air wing throughout the Belkan war and Circum-Pacific wars until 2011 with their Transfer to Carrier Air Wing 7 aboard the recently commissioned OFS Vulture.

In 2019, the Squadron would be shore-side during most of the Lighthouse War, providing Electronic Warfare support to IUN Forces. In 2020, VAQ-133 would regroup and return with the rest of Air Wing 7 to Osea, and is currently in their workup phase for a 2024 deployment.

Established in 1982 at NAS Meridian, StrikeFitron 112 ‘Paladins’ would become one of the first stood up F/A-18 Hornet squadrons within the OMDF, and notably, made primarily fr om members of the F-14 Community, pulling pilots from both the VF-12 ‘Knights’ and  VF-83 ‘Warhawks’. Carrying over most of the traditions from the Knights, VFA-112 would earn their battle colors in 1993 during the ‘January Fifth Incident’, wh ere Paladin Hornets would shoot down four F-5N fighters from Sotoa.

The Paladins would continue to serve throughout the 1990s and 2000’s, During the Belkan War, and again during the Continental War flying against Yuktobanian Forces. In 2020 following a hectic deployment to Usea, the Paladins were largely slated for a training rotation before workups for a 2024 Anean Deployment, though rumors from the Osean Department of State may pit the Paladins, and rest of Carrier Air Wing 7, for a deployment to Verusea far sooner.

Established in 1970. Electronic Attack Squadron 311 “Gauntlet” started their operations flying the EA-6B ‘Prowler’ in operations with CVW-7 aboard the OFS Vulture. Their first taste of combat would come in the mid-1970s during the Adamas Crisis. The Prowlers fr om Gauntlet would fly hundreds of hours jamming Adaman SAM batteries allowing for Osean Air Operations to take place over the island safely.

In the 1980s, the Squadron would transfer to CVW-21 aboard the OFS Hubert, And later in 1995 would be assigned to Shore Duty supporting Osean operations in Belka. In 2006, the Squadron would trade their now aging EA-6B Prowlers for EA-18G Growler aircraft, completing the transition in 2008. With these new Growlers they would deploy to Osean bases in Usea, protecting interests in the region during the 2010 Circum-Pacific War.

In 2014, the Squadron would be assigned to CVW-14 aboard the OFS Pelican wh ere they would continue their Electronic Attack and SEAD mission to this day.

Established in the 1960's flying the F-4E Phantom, the Privateers would make their name patrolling the turbulent skies near the Osean-Belkan border, before being stationed on the front lines alongside dozens of other squadrons staring down the rival Yuktobanian Air Force in a deadly game of brinkmanship. This deadly game would mark their first tragedy, when a civilian airliner would be misidentified by the unit, killing all aboard. With this black mark, the squadron would take years to recover until the 1995 Belkan war where they successfully defended Osea from nuclear bombers.

Following their successful campaigns during the Circum Pacific and later Lighthouse War. the 102nd Tactical Fighter Squadron "Privateers" was reassigned to the 224th Wing at Roca Roja Air Base, Usea, supporting the continuing IUN Peace Keeping Mission in the region.

Along with the 31st Tactical Fighter Squadron 'Enchanters', the Privateers make up the Air Superiority arm of the bases mission, flying the F-15C

Dragged into the 21st Century kicking and screaming. The 307 Tactical Fighter Squadron "Warlords" have begrudgingly accepted their new Aircraft and role that came with trading their elderly F-5s for more modern F-15Es.


Now, the Warlords lead the way for counter insurgent airstrikes in the high deserts and deep jungles of central Usea.

Despite the comments from the more traditional squadrons they find themselves stationed with. The 307 still maintains the standards and expectations of being true fighter pilots

Established in 1952, the 73rd Fighter Squadron "Gorgons" began their career as a Air Reserve Combat Squadron flying F-82F Sabres. Deploying multiple times, the Gorgons would distinguish themselves in combat, destroying multiple enemy aircraft in various conflicts.

In 1964, the Squadron would then transfer into the F-4 Phantom aircraft, ending their tenure in the Phantom by deploying to support the Osean Forces deployed during the Adama Incident a decade later.

In 1975, the squadron would transition into the F-16A as the OADF Reserves training squadron. Stationed at Milford Air Base, the Squadron would not see active service until 1995, flying various defense sorties near November City in conjunction with the Califia Air Guards 411th Fighter Squadron.

In 2019, the squadron would be deactivated following a disastrous first contact with Erusean Drones in the opening hours of the Lighthouse War.
