Operation Ghost Corridor Leg 4

Leg 4 — LYTV → LQMO Tivat, Montenegro → Mostar, Bosnia and Herzegovina

A hazardous inland transition through steep Balkan valleys toward Mostar, a city deeply scarred by conflict and reconstruction. The aircraft behind you vanished before dawn. No radar trace. No callsign. Nothing. But headquarters finally confirmed what you already suspected. The corridor was active. Mostar lay ahead — a city forever marked by the Bosnian War. Even decades later, the mountains surrounding it carried abandoned bunkers, shattered military outposts, and radar stations reclaimed by vegetation. This was where the real mission began. You descended lower than ever before, following river valleys through Bosnia’s rugged interior. Peaks towered overhead so closely it felt as though the aircraft were threading through cracks in the Earth itself. The corridor became increasingly precise. One wrong valley could expose you to radar coverage. One wrong ridge could end the mission entirely. Clouds gathered heavily over the mountains as rain streaked across the windshield. Turbulence slammed the aircraft violently while lightning illuminated abandoned villages below. And then the warning appeared. RADAR PAINT DETECTED Someone was tracking you now.
