History

The 207th Tactical Fighter Squadron "Gryphus" is a Maritime Defense Squadron in the Aurelian Air Force stationed at Aubrey Air Force Base. This squadron became the last line of defense after the Aurelian military was crushed by the advancing Leasath Forces in 2020. After the shoot down of Leasath Air Force bombers, the squadron was almost annihilated, save for it's leader and one other pilot. Afterward, the squadron went on the offensive, first taking over Puna Air Force Base, then providing air cover for the remnants of the Aurelian Army in the recapture of Port Patterson. After the capture of Port Patterson, the Army, Navy, and Air Force began to rush across the southern part of Aurelia, soon capturing Santa Elva, and pushing into Griswall. However, before capturing Griswall, the Meson Cannon had to be taken offline. After the Meson Cannon was destroyed/shut off, the capital was recaptured, and the war was technically over. However, the commanding officer of Leasath had dissapeared, and was followed by two F-117s of the Aurelian Air Force. However, they were shot down by Archelon fortress, and the Gryphus Squadron, along with the Aquila Squadron was sent out to destroy it.

In the end, Archelon fortress was destroyed, and Diego Navarro had went into hiding after his ultimate weapon Fenrir had failed and the truth about the flow of money in Leasath was revealed. After the war, the Gryphus squadron were hailed as heroes.
