About
February 2024. Finland is on the verge of joining NATO, when the unthinkable happens: Russian armed forces push through the border while cruise missiles rain down on the country. Several western allies join the conflict at once to fight alongside their Finnish brothers in arms. Among them is the 112th Fighter Squadron of the Air National Guard, who had just arrived from a training exercise in the UK.
