The Bloc war is now in full swing, with Bloc forces having secured holdings across the Pacific, the China Sea, and even as far East as Iran. The threat that the United States presents, even weakened as it has been by economic turmoil, however is not one that they can underestimate, and with American production lines already turning out fighter aircraft that are a threat to the Bloc's Type 198 Fighters, the Council finds that it must act. On Hawaii, Eric Weston and his team are working hard to provide new technical data so that the factories on the mainland can be improved and the new fighters can be built in numbers capable of turning the tide. He knows that the war will not leave him, or his, be... but not even Eric knows just how quickly it is coming to his doorstep. History is inevitable, just a rolling boulder of time that cannot be stopped, but that will not prevent heroes from trying.
