You begin to raise your arm when a bright orange flame spews from one of the wing-mounted pods on the craft. A split-second later, one of the base's communications buildings explodes.
Register the ex-aircraft's code as an enemy, if such a thing is possible. Search for survivors in our wreckage. Contact someone about the bogey.
1. *fzzt*
