print Blue - Fire! by Michael Rondot. Aviation print of 3 Buccaneers from
208 squadron as they prepare to attack a Surface Action Group.
Blue -Fire! by Michael Rondot. Nightmare scenario. Dusk over an empty sea. With lights out and in
radio silence, three Buccaneers, each armed with 4 Sea-Eagle missiles,
prepare to attack a Surface Action Group still beyond radar range. 150
miles away, 3 more Buccaneers are approaching the same target in a pincer
attack timed to hit the target at exactly the same time. The first warning
that the target will receive of the attack is when all 24 missiles radar
seekers switch on at close range for the final phase of the attack. Whilst
the Buccaneers escape unseen, the defences will be swamped with their
worst nightmare - two volleys of missiles approaching without warning, at
wave-top height, at 180 degrees to each other. Michael Rondot's painting captures the moment when the leader of the
first element (callsign 'Blue'), achieves firing solution and initiates
the ripple launch of his formation's missiles by breaking radio silence
with the traditional 208 squadron radio call of "Blue-Fire!"
