It is believed that when the Gault disappeared in March of 1995, "A World With No Boundaries" was formed and began to expand. During Operation Thunderbolt the 66th AFU Galm of the Ustian 6th Air Division engaged the Gault Squadron over the Round Table. After a battle and being shot down, their aircraft's remains are found on December 31st, 1995 on the edge of Air Space B7R.
