Flight Role: SEAD SWEEP
Falcon11: "Griffin" AA=0 AG=1 RTB
Falcon12: "Elmo" AA=4 AG=2 RTB
Falcon13: "Floyd" AA=0 AG=2 RTB
Falcon14: "Crowebar" AA=0 AG=1 RTB

Mission Outcome: MS

We were second up and settled at FL280. Cowboy were engaged with SU-32s and after checking if they needed assistance and noting that they had the fight in the bag, we pushed on and swapped targets with them. Our target was now the SA-2 as opposed to the SA-6. Elmo in No2 was sent in to attack the Fan-Song which he did successfully.

As he was coming off target I was spiked by Mig 31s. No2 re-joined and as we engaged the 31's, Nos 3 and 4 went to attend to some Mig29S.

The 31's were both killed by Elmo on two separate attacks (the latter supported by Cowboy and Floyd in No3 killed one of the 29s.

We then pushed north of the flight path to separate us from the others and reduce the risk of fratricide and looked for ground targets of opportunity now that our main target was down.

First element was behind the second at this point. 3 & 4 pushed on and were engaged by SA-4. 1 and 2 took over and were engaged by multiple SA-11's. A couple of circuits later we had destroyed two x SA-4 radars, one x SA-6 radar an SA-11 and an SA-13.

Just after we called that we were RTB the server crashed.

Good fun. A good challenge and very good SA from my flight and also with Utopics flight. HSD worked for me with Skal's flight although I'd ask for a bit more info from Skal please. It was all good though.

Callsign12: "Homer" AA=1 AG=1 RTB
Callsign13: "Ironman" AA=1 AG=1 RTB
Callsign14: "Poppy" AA=0 AG=0 RTB

Mission Outcome: MS

Was a bit hectic, but within the flight there was good coordination and communication.

On the way in we had a 4ship Su32/34s which got engaged before we got close enough. I lost lock and went cold and the remaining fighter was engaged by the second element.

By this point, the flight fell behind falcon, which took out the SA2 so we had to improvise in regard to ground targets.

Afterwards we set up a grinder that came naturally until #2 was joker. The plan was to hotpit refuel then get back into the fight, but the server crashed.

Good comms, good coordination, good flight.
