Outcomes

"The Allied attack is an astounding success. Their initial assault is met with only light German resistance, and they manage to secure and surround Kbely Airfield. Before German reinforcements could counterattack, the British storm and overrun Kbely, destroying the U.F.O. in the process. The German's prized technology wiped out, the Luftwaffe would be no match for the Allied forces in the battles to come."

— Allied Victory

"The fierce defense of Kbely by the German Elite was more than enough to hold back the Allied assault as new, technologically superior Luftwaffe decimated the British. The secrets held within Kbely would remain out of the Allies grasp, eventually leading to their devastation of Allied air forces at the hands of the Luftwaffe."
