[edit] General Information
The 229th Tactical Fighter Squadron "Grabacr" of the Belkan Air Force is featured in Ace Combat 05: The Unsung War. Throughout the Circum-Pacific War the Grabacr pilots flew F-15S/MTD Eagles. At the tail end of the war they flew four S-32.
[edit] History
The Grabacr Squadron is the a Belkan Squadron which operated within the Osean Military. After the Belkan War in 1995, in order to improve relations between the two countries a new Tactical Fighter Squadron was formed. They called themselves the 8492nd; they were comprised of Belkan Aces from the war. As time went on they completed everyone of their tasks and orders without fail, they had gained the trust of the Osean Government. However, as time passed their operations began to wind down and the squadron became somewhat inactive.
When the Circum Pacific war began in 2010, Osea was thrown full force into the war. The Osean Military was busy dealing with Yuktobanian counter attacks and preparing for an invasion of Yuktobania. As all this went on, the 8492nd Squadron restarted operations in secret. These were not Osean operations, but Operations from “The Grey Men” of Belka.
The 8492nd Squadron, is actually known as the Grabacr Fighter Squadron. Each pilot still holds a deep hatred for Osea and would do anything to claim their victory of 15 years ago. They commenced operations that would make the war continue, making the former allies fight one another until all of their fighting strength was wasted. This would be the ultimate victory for Belka.
The Grabacr Squadron saw the scale of the war being tipped in the favor of Osea, due to the War Dog Squadron. Seeing that this one Squadron was turning the tide of the war, the “8492nd” framed the War Dog squadron. They attacked a civilian College and the War Dog squadron was then taken out of service.
When the War Dogs returned, the Grabacr then set up another trap. As the Osean Vice-President was holding a meeting in Autum Stadium in November City; the 8492nd disrupted Osean Operations and allowed Yuktobanian Forces to attack.
While the War Dog squadron held them off, they lost a pilot. The Grabacr then went a step further and jumped them days later, when they were returning from conquering Cruik Fortress. The War Dogs escaped, but were set-up as Spies. The Osean military sent the “8492nd” Squadron after them and the War Dogs were shot down.
The Grabacr encountered them once again as the “Ghosts of Razgriz” , when Prime Minister Nikanor of Yuktobania was being evacuated from confinement. The 8492nd aircraft were shot down, but the pilots escaped and re-grouped. They later re-engaged the Razgriz when Belka attempted to drop the SOLG onto the Osean City of Oured. The Grabacr and the Ofnir squadron; fought until they met their demise.

Nationality: Belkan
Commander of the Belkan 6th Air Division, 4th Tatical Fighter Sqaudron. He seperated from his formation in the B7R battle with personal intentions, but was shot down when he encountered the Galm flight. Subsequantly, he joined the Osean Airforce.
He commonly fought beside a man known as "Huckebein the Raven" back then. However, near the end of the war Huckebein attempted to defect to Osea when ordered to drop a nuclear weapon in the Waldreichs. Ashley appeared along Schwarze, a squadron sent to shoot down Huckebein, but was instead shot down by Galm 1. Ashley too was shot down, as well as the entirety of Schwarze Squadron, by Galm One, but not before shooting down an Osean pilot named Jack Bartlett. After the war, Ashley joined the OADF, to establish the mysterious "8492" Squadron, comprised of only Belkan aces.
He was killed on December 31st, 2010, near Oured, Osea.
