Established in 2007 following the dissolution of the Independent States Allied Force, the 156th Fighter Squadron would herald a new age for the now battle hardened Amberian Air Force. Armed with ex-Osean Lend Lease F-16s, the Squadron would set the expectations of what modern equipment could be pushed to in the extremes of Amber.
Thanks to its relatively quick Establishment, the squadron would participate in many counter insurgency operations in conjunction with the newly established IUN-PKF, Though, despite this cooperation effort, that wouldn't stop a brief border clash with San Salvacion to occur in 2015 where Iskander F-16s successfully downed one F-5, though the pilot ejected safely and was repatriated a few days after hostilities ceased.
During the 2019 Lighthouse War, Iskandar was one of the first squadrons to make contact with the Erusean Controlled Arsenal Bird Justice and face heavy casualties.
