The state itself is ruled by the 588th Night Bomber Regiment of the Soviet Air Force, popularly referred to as the "Night Witches", an all-female fighter pilot regiment who have been fighting the Germans ever since the end of the [[World War II|Second World War]]. Even to this day they still strive to protect the Russian people from Luftwaffe terror bombings., intercepting any Luftwaffe bomber that ever dare to fly into Russian airspace

The 588th Night Bomber Regiment or the "Night Witches regiment" was established in 1941 as a regiment of the Soviet Air Force, and they were the first women military pilots in history to directly engage an enemy in combat. Following the collapse of the [[Soviet Union]] they allied with the [[West Russian Revolutionary Front]] and provided them with air power during the [[West Russian War]]. Come the end of that war and the WRRF's collapse, the Night Witches retreated to the Ural town of Surgut to continue their struggle against the Luftwaffe - which has earned them lots of praise and love throughout western Russia, even from the ultranationalist [[Omsk]].

The Free Aviators are not a unfiierunifier and cannot reunite Russia. They mainly serve as an in-universe explanation for why the Luftwaffe terror bombingbombings hashave not completely decimated West Russia. Once the [[German Civil War]] begins and the terror bombings stop, the Free Aviators are released from their duty and effectively become irrelevant until it comes time for West Siberia to unify. The West Siberian unifier (one ofeither [[Tyumen]], [[Omsk]] or [[Sverdlovsk]]) will not be able to absorb the Free Aviators until the other two unifiers have been dealt with. Should the Free Aviators refuse an offer of peaceful unification, they will be swiftly conquered due to lacking any ground units.

* If one uses console commands to change the Free Aviators to the Market Liberalism ideology, they will change their name to the Premium Aviators. This is likely a combination of a joke (going from "Free" to "Premium") as well as a reference to their name when the game was in early development — ''Besplatnyye Aviatory'' — which translates to "Free of Charge Aviators" in Russian.
