Mission Outcome: MS

We were attacking north at Banja Luka focusing the sead part on SA-11's.
There were quite some confusion during briefing on where each flight was operating, but didnt affect the actual flight much.
We had to kick out to the north a bit to get separation on Panther flight, as we didnt want to attack the same targets.
1 & 2 went AG while 3 stayed AA, we got our Shrikes off the rails, meanwhile Floyd reported getting spiked by MIG-31. This hostile was dealed with by one the other flight, same happened with a second MIG-31. Floyd then went AG but then swarms of hostile MIG-29/SU-27 started appearing.
Griffin managed to down 1, and ive just decided we needed to vacate the area but shortly after the server crashed

On arriving at FLOT we picked up a couple of SU-27 to our front but had to turn cold before we could engage as unable to verify them as hostiles amongst the friendlies in time. On 2nd hot leg we declared them as hostil, while 2 warned of 2 x pop-up SA-11. 2 cleared to engage SA-11's while 1 & 3 engaged SU-27's. SU-27's turned cold and appeared to be dragging so we knocked it off and turned cold. checked with 2 if SA-11's engaged, which was negative. On looking at the AGM-45 targeting system I seen that we were now surrounded by SA-11's so we turned towards friendly lines.

1 was immediately engaged by SA-11's and was shot down. 3 managed to rejoin 2 safely. 2 & 3 then picked up an SU-31 and a mig-21 so turned cold once more to gain distance before engaging. At this point the server crashed.

Learning point for me as flight lead was that I should have paid more attention to the SA-11's and turned away from the mig's as soon as the first 2 SA-11's popped up, and used our AGM-65's to attack these SA-11 units.

Flight Role: SEAD, SWEEP
LOBO41: "Poppy" AA=3 AG=0 RTB
LOBO42: "Ironman" AA=1 AG=0 MIA
LOBO43: "Zipgun" AA=0 AG=0 RTB
LOBO44: "Utopic" AA=0 AG=0 RTB

Takeoff and Ingress as fragged, 4 ship wedge. Target steer we split up for a element 1) east/west CAP, and element 2) north/south CAP. We intercepted a flight of MiG-31's engaging friendly AMX's north. Notching east we we're close to a SA-6 so element 1 pressed that target while element 2 pressed the MiG-31's. Once tresspass SA-6 we got hardlocked by Mig-29's and went gate and headsup for the AA threat. 6 contacts total which we engaged, communicating with element2 to support.
We we're firing Fox 3's when Ironman got hit, and I got hit by an SA-13 at angels 22 approx. element 1 was down and element 2 in lead. RTB and server crash unfortunately.
