I can see missiles being fired from our ships and other T Battery detachments firing from the hillsides. A second wave of enemy planes roars in and attacks the ships in the sound. H.M.S. Fearless is nearly hit. Target tracking, in cover, firing. Another missile streaks off the beam before spinning out of control and exploding into the ground.
Search cancel, tracking, in cover, firing.
It's a good missile . I have my sights lined up on the Mirage. My finger and thumb gently nudging the joystick, trying to keep the cross hairs in the center of the fuselage. He swoops in and drops his bombs, then rolls to the left showing me his belly, puts it into top gear and puts his foot down on the after burners heading for open sea whilst trying to dodge the wall of tracer all around him. I can see the flare of the missile coming into focus.
