Background:

A squadron of 10 MiG-29A Fulcrums violated Osean airspace and killed 8 rookies of the Wardog Squadron at September 23, 2010.
Afterwards, the squadron was on high alert. A Yuktobanian SR-71 recon plane was hit by a SAM from the Osean Coastal Defense Force, but was not destroyed. Heavily damaged, the wounded aircraft descended to 4,000 feet and started heading north, out to sea.

We have confirmed the target type as a strategic recon plane flying at very high altitude.

Despite our repeated warnings, it continued to penetrate our ADEZ and was fired upon by Osean Coastal Defense Force SAMs. We believe that one of our SAM damaged the unknown plane, but did not destroy it.

Radar shows that the aircraft is currently losing altitude , and it's attempting to egress feet wet towards the ocean.

Intercept this target and force it to land for identification. Do not fire upon this aircraft until further orders are transmitted.
