Beep-Beep... Beep-Beep...
"Glaive Two to all flights, proceed with caution. Picking up heavy ionic readings closing in on the A/O bearing two-three-zero, five hundred kilos and closing. They're coming in solar. Do you copy?"
"War-Akk Five Lead, copy that, tightening formation, Glaive One raising altitude to sixty thousand feet and holding. Bravo Flight ready to engage."
The group tightened formation just as the chairwoman's had. Saera's HoloSynth display suddenly grew a plethora of alarming colors as the feed from the SEWAC frigates were uplinked via special Glaive Encryption directly to the squadron's HUDs. The HoloSynth system allowed Saera to move it over to the side as she gave her weapons a system check and her flight controls a routine combat check. Everything cleared out, and a large green orb briefly engaged on the display beside the pipper.
"Alright, guys.... You know the drill. Get Bravo on standby holding pattern at sixty kay, do not enter the Area of Operations. I want the Skira and every fighter she's got on escort en route to intercept the unknown enemy. IFF readings come up blank and the ion signatures are inconsistent with any of our craft. You are cleared to engage, I repeat, fire at will. Alpha Flight, stay on me. We're seeing this through. Be prepared to engage PSIS at a second's notice."
As the TIEs were finally on final approach, there had been ample time and distance for the orbital-stationed escort flights to intercept. The goliath Skira was not far behind. Something really, really nasty was going to happen in a matter of minutes, but first.... 28 very 'hot' Languor fighters literally intercepted the bogeys. By the time they could open fire, they already had hot signals on their tails. They began to make their pass and Saera's flight dispersed to avoid contact fire, but if [member="Vincent Jusik"]'s TIEs stayed the course, they would suffer devastating losses. Saera was actually pretty nervous, but she was determined to find both the signal and see about the Liberty Concord's involvement.

((( Total of 2,000 km radius of coverage. )))
((( I just realized there's only one post between both of mine. I'm pretty far from LC, but if I cut someone off who wanted to engage me, let me know. I'll give them time. )))
