The SCOURGE
The earlier mentioned SCOURGE finally receives its first fighter!
Well, not really.
Hence the designation Red Opponent C, this is actually the third iteration of the Red Opponent, and fourth of the SCOURGE warriors if we count the unreleased Steve. However, while far from the first SCOURGE jet made, it is the first to see the light of day due to superior flight performance to the others.
Red Opponents, on the surface, may be quite maneuverable, but still fragile and not hard to destroy if placed under direct fire. Making matters worse (for the Red Opponent), their flare dispenser has virtually no cooldown, meaning that all flares will be dumped at once, which means that any smart missile user won't struggle to get a ranged hit on the "ROC." The problem comes in their numbers. Exact count isn't known, but estimates place the Red Opponent C "population" at roughly 12,000- and climbing despite rapid losses due to combined efforts from several of the CSV's most feared forces, like the Monarchii, MDA, NMR, and Sabreswarm (they never died off lol, Sabreswarm is forever).
The individual Red Opponent doesn't need to be unstoppable, unbreakable, unkillable, or otherwise invincible. There just needs to be a lot of them. And given that the SCOURGE seems to have the means of making this war one of attrition, that's a considerable threat. Thankfully, we have Annihilators and soon Extinctors which can wipe out several ROCs at once, but as time passes, the SCOURGE will slowly learn how to make planes of high quantity and quality. If, or even when that happens, we can only hope we're ready for the storm.

@TheUltimatePlaneLover oh, ok.
@JSTQ If you do, do so with caution
They're dangerous enough when attacking our lands, they'll be absolutely horrific to face when it comes to the defense of their homeland. That's also where the bulk of their 2,000,000+ aircraft will be.
@TheUltimatePlaneLover em… After some reflection, I want to emphasize that my question is We will conduct a landing operation against them.
@JSTQ Naval or air is ideal, but ground/amphibious attacks will probably be minimal unless:
-They take over islands, which isn't an impossibility given how dramatically their numbers are increasing (allegedly they just hit 82,000 Red Eliminators)
-Their island gets too close to land, also not an impossibility since the
SCOURGEcould probably be overconfident with their immense forces@TheUltimatePlaneLover I have a question now—since it's a mobile island, will we need to conduct an amphibious assault in the future?
@KPLBall ooh lol
@Karroc9522 I back and ear is posted
@KPLBall
Wdym?
@Karroc9522 Guess who
@JSTQ ?
@TheUltimatePlaneLover ok, so
Project Aurelia
@JSTQ No, but actually yes:
The
SCOURGE, while an entity, also appears to be some kind of location, a mobile island. This is the source and likely base of all of its aircraft.However, while the
SCOURGEjets don't inherently need to land at airports, theSCOURGEitself needs to conquer them. We know not why, only that they need to. My best guess is world domination, but theSCOURGE's true ambitions have yet to be revealed...A question: Do they need airports?
To be honest, the current Antetus Alliance is both suited and struggling to counter them, because advanced FT missiles are not cheap. If they had airports, the LF-12A would make them understand the core of air superiority theory. But...
...
Perhaps that experimental project needs to be launched ahead of schedule.
@xdarkxwolf17 Basically just this, but with weaker missiles and less impressive flight performance
What about Red opponent B and A?
@Karroc9522 (TM) Soon
@TheUltimatePlaneLover don't mean to be the dum party but might you explain👇
@GrowAGarden I dunno, who is Majakalona?
@TheUltimatePlaneLover who's mqjakqkima
@Karroc9522 Thanks mate
I personally like it
@GrowAGarden Which is precisely the point, Majakalona. The idea is not quality, but quantity, these things can get ripped apart pretty easily, only issue is that you'd have to do that thousands of times.
this looks like it was made by a 10 year old
