Top Gun + Lawrence of Arabia + Harry Met Sally + Catch-22 + Soldier Soldier

Kotaro "Pretty Boy" Tsurugi, a Yamatonese-American naval officer (ranked Lieutenant Junior Grade) and F-14 pilot in the Republican Continent of Americas Naval Forces (RCANF), is sent to the Xerxian Gulf to fight in the 2nd Babylonian War during the early 2000s. He is attached to the "Black Lions" of Fighter Squadron 213 (VF-213) and is deployed aboard the aircraft carrier RCAS Theodore Roseville (CVN-71). Throughout his journey to become one of the best naval aviators the military has ever produced, he is accompanied by his best friend, LTJG Kathryn (Katie) "9-Lives" Wheeler - A girl he met during his initial years of service as an enlisted aircraft mechanic who later becomes his backseat RIO and potential lover - and Petty Officer Bryan "Ski" Kowalski, a young electronics technician whom he mentors and considers his younger brother. As this trio of friends set out to sea (and air) during Babylonian War II, their mettle will be tested throughout many trials and tribulations brought out by a senseless war in 21st Century Terra Nova. And, only in these trying times will they ever find for themselves what they are truly capable of!
