Comberth Harbor

This area is featured in Ace Combat 04: Shattered Skies. Comberth Harbor is one large Port-City located on the eastern coast of the Usean continent. The habor is surrounded by multiple suburbs and two large metropolitan areas. The landscape within the area is completely flat. Comberth Harbor's naval facilities include Submarine Docks, Ship Yard Facilities and New Comberth Harbor, which contains ammunition storage, fuel storage and more ship yard facilities.

Usean Continental War
Comberth Harbor was originally an ISAF Port of call, but it was taken by Erusian Forces, sometime in late-2003 / early-2004. The Harbor became the Erusian front line logistics and repair center for the Erusian Navy. In late 2004, when the ISAF began to mount a counter-attack, Erusian High Command in Farbanti decided to dispatch its "Invincible" Aegir Fleet to Comberth in preperation of a large scale invasion of North Point, the ISAF GHQ.

After destroying air transports in route to Comberth, shutting down the main Erusian air corridor to Comberth, and a Coastal Petrol Facility outside Comberth Harbor, the Aegir Fleet was somewhat weakened. Thus, ISAF HQ made plans to destroy the Fleet while it was still docked in Comberth Harbor.

Usean Continental War (Op. Rough Seas)
Early morning on November 23rd 2004, an ISAF fighter squadron caught the fleet off guard in a massive-scale surprise attack. The squadron split into four groups in order to attack the four targeted sections of Comberth Harbor: the capital ships of the Aegir Fleet anchored outside of the harbor, ship yard Facilities with docked ships, the submarine docks with all submarines and the fuel/ammo dump. The duration of the entire operation was very long. Harbor servicing facilities were crippled and the flow of military supplies was critically weakened. All naval ships were either damaged or sunk. Oil reserves were completely massacred. Ships of the Aegir Fleet attempted to flee the harbor and launch a counterattack, but, were ultimately overrun. During the attack, the Aegir Fleet was completely annihilated, including other supporting naval vessles, the landing forces and even the Aegir flagship, the Battleship Tanager. Any plans for Erusea to invade North Point were "delayed indefinitely". Collateral damage and extremely high casualty rates during the attack made many Erusian Officers wary of the Ribbon's aerial dominance.
