• GENERAL SITUATION :

With the war on ISIS, terrorist activities are increasing in. Small teams are perpetrating attacks on high valuable civilian targets. Through massive shooting, bombing or hijacking they intend to destabilize western European countries.

• SPECIFIC SITUATION :

This morning at 06 am an AIRBUS A-320 matriculated SX-DNA belonging to AEGAN took off from KAVAL Airport with 186 passengers on board . Shortly after its take off, the plane was hijacked and rerouted to KASTELI on demand of the hijacker. For fear of an attack by crashing the plane, a F16 patrol was immediately sent to intercept and make contact with the Airbus.

EXERCISE - EXERCISE - EXERCISE

 As soon as I got my briefing, I jumped in my plane to scramble. After take off, I immediately turn to my second steer point keeping full post combustion to reach 450 knots.

I easily find the Airbus with my radar. Then I turn it off not to expose the passengers to the radiations.

Then I come close to the target to confirm identification

And all the flight is about flying in close formation with the A-320.

 Then it finally comes to the final course and lower it's landing gear

 I follow it until it touches the ground

And then I go back to my landing airbase
