The geography of the 'Round Table' is very unique to the region. The mountain range that runs through this area creates a circle, that starts near Hoffnung and branches off to form the Waldreich Mountain range in Belka. The area has a semi-arid climate, but it has rich deposits of minerals. The exact consintration of these minerals are unknown until a detailed geological survey of the area can be organized. In the distant geological past, water might have flowed through this area creating 'ripples' in the ground. Also the extremely weathered surfaces of the mountains also reinforces that this area periodically recieves heavy rain storms. This particular airspace is one of the main battle zones of the Belkan War. Aces who distinguish themselves in this area are known as "Knights of the Round Table".

The Belkan War (Op. Choker One)

As the Osean Federation and other nations of the newly formed 'Allied Nations' prepared to launch Offensive Operation No. 4101, a distraction was needed to keep the Belkan Military off guard. The Ustian Air Force called upon their 6th Air Division's 66th Air Force Unit "Galm" to fly a sortie over Strategic Air Space B7R "The Round Table".

The Belkan War (Op. Battle-Axe)

Known as Operational Airspace B7R, it is located at north latitude 24° east longitude 235°. The topography makes the location look like a giant circle with a 400 km radius, hence the name "The Round Table". It is the attack corridor used by Belka to invade not just Ustio, but also its surrounding nations, making it an extremely important strategic location, charged to many Belkan aces to defend. The reason for the outbreak of war is the large cache of natural resources found within this area, making it very hotly contested. It is also the site where the Galm Team had encountered many enemy Ace Squadrons.

Quick Facts: - The Round Table was taken by the Allied Forces on May 28th during Operation: Battle Axe.

- The Round Table is also where the player gets a chance to challange none other than: Mobius One, during the special mission: [i]The Gauntlet.
