The third image for the Fortress Earth series by Travis Hightower: [link] This one shows a US AWAC diving hard to avoid 2 alien interceptors that have already managed to blow out one of it's engines, it's trying to survive just long enough so that some F14's can come in and help.
unfrigginbeleivable O_O this so AMAZING! makes me want to play Ace Combat 5 now XD
having a blown engine, lowered flaps and (for all intensive purposes for something that size) flying at 0 altitude, i can only imagine the sirens, terrain/altitude and hostile contact warnings that are screaming in the cockpit. it has lost what little maneuverability it had by being damaged and at such low altitude... if this were a snapshot of events, immediately after this was taken the AWACS would have probably been obliterated... :/
Pretty much. But Because Duke intervenes, the pilot is able to put it in the water - though, not very gently. But are the survivors safe yet? Adam is working on what happens next. Be sure to check out the link in the description for more!
