Ael was getting his gear together at his new locker in the Red Squad locker room. Starbuck came up next to him. “Chief. What’d you hear?”
“Same as you. Beloti system. Subspace mine field. Sweep a clear path for the mother bird to come through. Nothing big.”
“Apex. Come on, that’s gold, but there has to be more.” Ael sighed. “That’s all we have. If the assignment changes in air, that’s a different story.” As Red Squad assembled and got ready to fly, the room was slightly abuzz.

Ric stepped into the hanger bay, having a discussion with one of the flight engineers. After nodding an acknowledgement, the CAG approached the gathered Red and Green Squad pilots.

“Here’s the 4-1-1, ladies and gentleman. The Cardassians have provided us with intel on a safe path through the minefield. Honestly, I still don’t trust the Cardassians. The path has been loaded into your onboard computers. We’ve got extra work, though. They’ve used subspace Houdinis in this area and I wouldn’t be surprised if they conveniently forgot to mention where some of those are. The sensors in your birds have been modified to detect those. You paint one, make sure everybody is clear, then light it up. Any questions?”

Ensign Tessa Lance, callsign “Goldeneye” raised her hand. “Yes sir. Do we know how old these mines are? Are they from the Dominion War or the Cardassian Conflict that happened over a decade earlier?”

NE Tessa May Lance, callsign “Goldeneye” because R Smith needs to post every three days.

Ael chimed in. “Gravitic subspace mines were primarily used during the Cardassian war. They’re a little out of date for the Dominion.” How Ael knew what weapons were used at the time was unknown to the group. A covert intelligence operation looking into the Cardassians a couple decades ago.

A disembodied voice interrupted the proceedings. =^=Harn to Commander O’Shea, you and your fighters now have clearance to launch.=^=

Jason Harn, XO

Ael grabbed his flight suit helmet and stood up. “See you out there.” He said to Ric.

Ael walked backwards, guiding Red Squad to their fighters. “Subspace mines are tricky. Keep your engines hot, torpedoes loaded. If you have time to see it and get a good phaser lock, it’s too late. So, pull the mine, send it a torpedo, and get the hell out. Clear?” A collection of ‘yes sirs’ came back. “Alright. Get set in your birds, and let’s get out there.”
