Before the Ulysses 1994XF04 Asteroid collisions, the Estovakian Air Force originally operated solely for national defense. After the asteroid hit, Estovakia gradually fell into ruin, fed by economic and political crisis. After a vicious civil war, the government came under a military dictatorship, and these "Generals" later declared war on the Republic of Emmeria. The Estovakian air force had a great build up before the invasion.
List of Squadrons
Edit
9th Tactical Fighter Squadron
Edit
This squad is part of Estovakia's 370th Aviation Regiment, 9th Tactical Fighter Squadron of Estovakia's Central Forces Precinct. Stationed aboard the P-1112 Aigaion Heavy Command Cruiser, the Strigon Team is a flexible strike force that can launch operations from literally anywhere on earth. This squad was created sometime before the Estovakian Civil War, where it fought with General Gustav Dvornik's Eastern Faction. After the war, the squadron combined with the Vampire Squadron to compensate for numerical losses. Strigon fought in many major battles of the Emmerian-Estovakian War. Its flight leader during the Estovakian Civil War and the subsequent invasion of Gracemeria was Lieutenant Colonel Victor Voychek. The squad had several temporary flight leaders, until a permanent replacement was made in his protegé, Major Ilya Pasternak.

Kentavr ("Кентавр", Сentaur) Squadron
Edit
This Squad is a part of Estovakia's 60th Aviation Regiment, 5th Tactical Fighter Squadron of the Central Forces Precinct. This squad was a part of the Island Coalition, where they served as a defensive team. This squad was responsible for holding off Lyes United Front forces during the Estovakian Civil War. The Squad leader is First Lieutenant Ozren Milos, whose tactic for the squad's success as a defensive pilot is confusing larger squads so as to seek out and destroy the squadron's leader, effectively rendering the squadron uncontrollable. He and his squad members were shot down and killed in the Battle of Mount Marcello. However, in missison 15 "Chandeleir" a member of Strigon team responds to another member whose name is "Milos". This questons the possibility if Ozren really died at Mt. Marcello or if he was transferred to Strigon Team as he was seen with 2 other Strigon members at the Battle of Mount Marcello.

This squad is part of the EAF, 60th Aviation Regiment, 5th Tactical Fighter Squadron of the Central Forces Precinct. Formed shortly after the Estovakian Civil War, it is led by Major Lorenz Riedel, a veteran of the Belkan War and member of the 5th Tactical Fighter Squadron Gault (as Gault 7) who was exiled from his country after the end of the war, and later found refuge in Estovakia, while it was still in the Civil War. Lorenz brought technology of unspecified origin with him, which led to the creation of the Estovakian Aerial Fleet. In February 20, 2016, the Emmerian military performed a covert strike on the Aigaion's fleet while it was in mid-refueling. In the heat of the battle, Feniks took off from the Aigaion as a replacement for the lost Strigon team; however, he too was shot down. Whether he survived the engagement remains unknown.

Oblako ("Облако", Cloud) Squadron
Edit
Oblako is the Western Forces Precinct Air Force 76th Tactical Fighter Squadron, 98th Aviation Regiment.
The Squadron Leader of Oblako is called Jakob Vabec. He was a member of the Lyes United Front, and flew on the front lines against the Eastern Faction at the very end of the Estovakian Civil War. During the Ragno defensive operation, his positioning as a sacrificial pawn enraged him to such an extent that despite engaging the Garuda Team, he continued to broadcast a torrent of criticism against Estovakia's high command. After he was shot down, he was rescued by allied Estovakian forces, and was later court-martialed (and found guilty of) for disobeying a direct order, as well as making slanderous proclamations against a former head of state. Jakob was released from prison at the end of the war.

Estovakian Central Forces Precinct Air Force 8th Tactical Fighter Squadron 87th Aviation Regiment.
The Squadron leader, Adalbert Radic was a formidable tactician. His actions are said to have greatly contributed to the Eastern Faction's ability to secure supremacy over such a wide area despite the lack of ground support. He continued to accrue an impressive record against the Emmerian advance, leading his squadron to unparalleled acclaim, while accumulating equally severe losses. He was shot down over the Moloch Desert while defending tank forces from an overwhelming enemy onslaught. His selfless and courageous efforts to defend allied troops in the face of danger rallied the morale of all.

Estovakian Southern Forces Precinct Air Force 42nd Tactical Fighter Squadron, 22nd Aviation Regiment
Born and raised in Estovakia, Miljan Zrinski made a name for himself as a player and trouble maker. Serving as an anti-ship attack specialist during the Emmeria-Estovakian War, he provided a continual threat to Emmerian naval vessels. While on aerial patrol over Fort Norton, the Emmerian Air Force's Garuda Team managed a high-speed low-altitude intrusion just below his position. Zrinski was shot down while trying to intervene. Records show that after his rescue by allied forces, he was court-martialed for his failure.

Trivia
Edit
- Despite that Estovakia seems to be most influenced by its southern neighbor, Yuktobania, it only has two Soviet/Russian built aircraft in service (Su-33, Su-47). One might expect its air force to be predominantly composed of Eastern Bloc aircraft, instead of US/NATO aircraft.
