The Bering Strait is a body of water between northern Cascadia and Magadan (as well as the entire Pacific Federation).
Overview[]
One of the most notable things about it is being one of the few areas to keep its pre-Calamity name in the After Calamity Era. Another is it being the place of ship-to-ship combat between Cascadian and Magadan/Federation fishermen, where both sides duked it out with small arms and ship ramming. Regardless, King Crab fishing remains good.[2] Various blizzards dot the area, making travel difficult for airliners passing through the strait.[3]
History[]
In the early hours of April 17, AC 432 during the Cascadian Conflict, the Federation, attempting to get disorganized and understrength units for later redeployment, sent a dozen C/T-17 transports for airlift, using the arctic storm as camouflage. However, a Cascadian Air Force patrol spotted the aerial convoy, eventually causing a chain reaction with both sides sending wave after wave of fighters against each other and creating the largest air battle in not just the war, but After Calamity Era history. The stalemate was eventually broken by the arrival of more mercenaries, most prominently Sicario's Hitman Team, and consequently, the Federation's aerial power all over northern Cascadia was greatly reduced.[1]
