OOC: Nope nope nope, no total surprise today mace, not at 100miles out. Calculating the warning time with your planes at an optimistic 700mph, the radar operators would have about nine minuets warning before the planes arrive at the AIF city, plenty of time to scramble fighters to defend. So yeah, no, complete surprise, total bull. So my post is starting at about eight minuets before the first wave arrives at the AIF port.

IC: As word is sent of a massive wave of aircraft incoming with eight minuets lead time, local airbases scramble their fighters and interceptors to engage the enemy aircraft. At a base 30 miles north of the port, 50 of the hypersonic XF/LB-1000s are scrambled to attack the waves of fighters, and race in at high speed. Meanwhile in the harbor below, a Lancer class battleship primes her missiles and railguns to bring down as many bombers as possible, while ships all around raise steam to try and evade some fire. As radar operators get a fix on the Italian carriers, flying ship command is notified, and multiple cloaked flying ships are scrambled to eradicate the attackers.
