First a bit of back story. The year 2017. Political differences cause tension, which eventually explodes as a nuclear war. Russia and North Korea launch missiles at the USA and the UK, which ruins the earth so much that only 2 small islands remain. The smaller of the two islands is occupied by western forces, and is named 'Wright', after the American pioneers. Russia occupies the larger island, named Yeager. The RAF and USAF join forces, but new equipment is desperately needed. The aircraft manufacturers of the west countries were all amalgamated into one: SeabCo. The Merlin is named after the small, quick, nimble bird of prey. It is fitted with an undeveloped short range BAE Laser Cannon MK1. It is very fast, and is designed to fly to Yeager, scout around, and destroy vital bridges. It has just enough fuel for this. Please Rate!
