The''' 6th Tactical Fighter Squadron''', also known as "'''''Schwarze'''''", of the '''13th Night Fighter Air Division''' are a squadron that belonged to the [[Belkan Air Force]] during the [[Belkan War]]. They were led by the former pilot and war criminal of the [[Yuktobanian Air Force]], [[Dominic Zubov]] and operated eight [[MiG-31 Foxhound]]s. Their aircraft bear black and red paint schemes.

They commonly use [[XLAA (Advanced Long-Range Air-To-Air Missile)|XLAA]] missiles to attack at long-ranges. When the squadron engages it splits into two units consisting of four [[MiG-31 Foxhound|aircraft]] each. One of the unit engages first, while the second unit engages later. The second unit's opening volleys usually consist of XLAA fire.

In the unlockable mission "''[[The Gauntlet]]''", they will always be the third set of opponents you face when playing on Ace Difficulty.

== History ==
The''' 6th Tactical Fighter Squadron''' "'''''Schwarze'''''" (black in German/Belkan) had first, officially, seen combat during the [[Belkan War]] in 1995. During the war, the entire squadron gained a reputation of fear among both the military of Belka and the Allied Forces from the [[Osean Federation]], the [[Republic of Ustio]] and the [[Kingdom of Sapin]].

The '''6th TFS''' was commonly assigned to missions aimed at intercepting Belkan aircraft attempting to defect and of any forces attempting to leave the battlefield whatever their reasons was. According to the military record from '''Sepp Bonhof,''' this squadron performed other unknown tasks as well. Like all units of the '''13th Night Fighter Air Division '''or '''NFAD''', the '''6th TFS''' was never officially tried by Belka because of their actions, since they had completely unrestricted orders to engage both enemy and allied forces at will.

On May 28, the 6th Tactical Fighter Squadron was dispatched to assassinate a top ranking ace of the BAF or Belkan Air Force, attempting to defect to the Osean Federation. This pilot was named [[Wolfgang Buchner]], but was also known by they comrades as 
"'''''Huckebein the Raven'''''". His orders were to sortie towards an undisclosed Belkan City (presumed to be a South Belkan city) and drop a nuclear weapon on it. Instead, the pilot attempted to flee the country evading his orders.

As the Schwarze Squadron, lead by [[Dominic Zubov]], pursued Wolfgang, the defecting ace flew towards the infamous [[Area B7R, Belka|Airspace B7R]] that was known as "'''''The Round Table'''''". At that time, the allied "[[Battle of B7R|Operation: Battle-Axe]]" was under way. The 6th Tactical Fighter Squadron lost Huckebein, among the confusion of the '''Operation Battle-Axe''', but, instead engaged the [[Galm Team|66th AFU Galm]] of the [[Ustian Air Force]] 6th Air Division. All members of the Schwarze Squadron were shot down during their engagement.

With the end of the Belkan War, all members fled the country, changed their identities or seemed to disappear.
