''Suddenly, near the AIF waters, about 50 Aquila-Class carriers come in, and start to launch several hundreds of jets at a time, with a unique weapon. they enter the atmosphere, higher, until they almost reached space. They headed for their target: the capital of the ISBA. Several longswords detect the slower squadrons, and eliminated them. They contact HQ, but they were too late, but this gave the capital city enough time to prepare air defences.''

They reach Ostmoor. Longswords quickly react to attempt to destroy the huge swarm of fighter jets, and suceeded in shooting down massive numbers of them. On clear inspection however, the weapon the jets were holding were obvious...Incendary 700lb bombs, with no extra means of defence. The RM jets start to drop their bombs at one target: and one target only...the downtown district, at the commerce area.

The bombs impacted with the force of a regular bomb, but at the same time, another feature happens, a massive firestorm suddenly forms on the district, killing thousands of unprotected people in the streets, as well as causing massive collateral damage to the skyscrapers. One particular one was so weakened that it finally colapsed and went into it's way of destroying another skyscraper. Within a matter of minutes, the entirety of the downtown district was completely and utherly ashes.

However, the anti-aircraft and the longsword fighters, as well as the individual fighters from the ISBA, start to combat the jets, even the ones who haven't deployed their weapons. In another of minutes, all of the jets came falling down from the sky...creating several explosions on the ground, while killing innocent civilians. The aircraft carriers were notified that altough the operaiton was a sucess, more damage was needed to cripple the ISBA war effort.

As a result, the second wave of jets started to rise up from the aircraft carrier elevators, ready to go to their next target...New Alexandria.

Operation: Firestorm was going towards stage 2.
