Geography
Twinkle Islands is an island chain in Western Usea. It is a part of the Federal Republic of Erusea. It is surrounded by the Spring Sea, which covers the boundaries of the Usean & Osean Continents. It's air base, located in the Southeast corner of the island chain, was for a time the home of Scarface Squadron. Megalith, an island fortress located on a desolate island somewhere in the island chain, was used in similar respect to Fortress Intolerance at North Point, serving as a Ballistic Missile platform.

Usean Rebellion (Op.Gambit):
Usean Rebels launched bombers to destroy the last remnants of the allied forces that were located at Twinkle Island AFB. Scarface 1 was sent by Unified Forces HQ to single handedly eliminate all bombers & escort aircraft. All bombers were destroyed before the Unified Force's Airbase was completely wiped out, along with a near by Aircraft Carrier.

Usean Continental War (Op.Judgment Day):
September 26, 2005. The Mobius Squadron was sent to the island chain to destroy Megalith, which was being operated by Erusian Forces which refused to surrender to the ISAF. While heading towards the base, the remnants of Yellow Squadron formed up to counter the Mobius squadron. It led to an air battle between the best of their countries, which resulted in the defeat of the Yellow Squadron. Mobius 1 was able to destroy multiple power generators, allowing ISAF Special Forces to gain entry to the Megalith control room. Once ISAF Special Forces opened the main silo holding a large ICBM, Mobius 1 flew down the silo's mantinence tunnel and destroyed the ICBM. The resulting blast disabled Megalith and finally ended the Usean Continental War.
