    Lomac, 11/3/04

    Right.. since we've not really used the F15 much recently I thought it might be a bit of fun to use the old Eagle.

    So here's the brief...

    Ladies and Gents..

    Let's be honest - as much as we hate to admit it, the war isn't going too well at the moment and we're losing ground to the Russians/Ukranians. We recently lost the an airbase to the South East due to a suprise Russian paratrooper attack. The Russian forces swiftly moved in and re-esablished this airfield as their own. Reconnaissance shows that they've moved in air defenses to stop us from doing the same thing to them and since they've got a heavy ground presence we can't move in from the ground and storm the field.

    So, brass has decided rather than try and take the field back, we'll disable it permenantly. A co-ordinated strike on the field is planned, of which we'll be flying a Fighter Sweep, taking out any air threats to the package as a whole.

    The package will consist of:

    2x B1's (Runway attack)
    4x F16C (SEAD)
    4x F15 (Fighter Sweep / CAP)
    2x A10 (Ground attack, mopping up)

    Obviously this is quite a package and due to the routes the aircraft will be taking (see flight) there's rather a lot to look after. The strike on the airfield itself will take place in the following order: F16s go in first to mop up as much of the air defense as possible, 1 min later B1's flatten the airfield, then another minute later A10's nail anything that's left. Meanwhile we're circling the area.. Should any aircraft try to scramble from the field we have permission to straff them on the deck.

    We don't know what sort of air threat will be posed, but it's fair to imagine they'll have interceptors at such an important airfield for controlling this region. Defend the package at all costs! Even though the air defenses at the airfield are easily taken out by our more advanced anti radar missiles, they're no good if the aircraft firing them don't make it in one piece to the target zone!


    Don't let us down.

    Questions?

    They won't need to if you get them all whilst they're on the runway!

    F16's will act in self defense yes, but they're tasked with taking out the air defense so will be relying on us to keep any heat off them.

    As for them being on the Runway.. well, that depends on how lucky you are. The airbase has EWR so will launch fighters way in advance of you getting there. However sneak past the EWR out and you'll catch the fighters unaware. However the chances of doing that are next to nothing.

    Saying that though you could always try to power into the hot zone as fast as possible to nail em, but then you're in front of the SEAD and so at risk from SAMs. Nasty choice to make isn't it.

    I'd prefer them airborne - give them a fighting chance and play fair

    OK, Blinkz and I play tested this last night. Had some "interesting" results to say the least.

    We flew the mission about 6 times. Not once did both of us make it back....

    This is not for the feint of heart, it's solid A2A action all the way in and you'll probably find youself running out of Slammers within minutes.... Saying that though this was with 2 peeps in F15s, with 4 it might be a bit more reasonable, assuming you don't all shoot the same target.

    I suggest you guys read up on the F15 and Slammers.. cos you won't get time for me to explain how to use it when you're in the air.

    OK, missions's been editted and all works OK now. As a taster, should you get it right, this is the sort of thing you'l be able to see in the "flesh"
