A small UAC Navy task force arrived off the coast of ROP and warned Rtech vessels that they were encroaching on ROP, and by association, SATO, waters. Rtech vessels responded by ordering UAC forces to re-enter international waters. After about an hour of pause, with neither side complying, UAC forces opened fire on Rtech vessels. In the end, out of the 6 destroyers, 1 cruiser, and 2 littoral combat ships that were deployed, not a single one was hit, with the only UAC casualties coming from a V-270A2A pilot and gunner who were both killed in a crash when Rtech naval vessels targeted them with SAMs, forcing them to take evasive maneuvers and eventually lose control of the aircraft due to shrapnel shredding the wires the controlled the right turbine, which left it still spinning in an upright position. By the time the pilots realized this, it was too late. Their loss will be mourned. The same could not be said for the Rtech forces, who suffered the complete loss of three destroyers, with a fourth one severely damaged. one submarine was allegedly sunk, as well as 16 fighter aircraft shot down. As the situation progresses, we will have to wait to see how the Rtech Republic responds to the near complete destruction of their entire navy. UAC forces have announced their intentions to back down given Rtech forces pull out immediately. On a side note, this is the final combat deployment of the remaining 13 F/A-224B Super Jaguar aircraft in service anywhere.
