The area around El Arish, not least the air base there, is of interest to command. They suspect enemy aircraft are using the base as a refuelling point and location for ambush CAPs. The fact that an engineer battalion is nearby gives credence to this suspicion.

You are tasked with disabling the runways, shutting down El Arish radar and putting the nearby army camp out of action.




Fig. 1 - Flight Plan for Package.






Fig. 2 - Package Briefing Info for Package 3116.



Three flights of F-16s have been tasked with this job and they should co-ordinate their attacks as a "Big Wing" to avoid any mishaps.

A flight of F-15Cs will be on station above you to provide air support.

Enemy Rafaelle and F-16C-30 aircraft are active in the area.

There is no information available on ground defences (AAA/SAMs). There is no AWACs on station either.

The weather is clear at the target.


Tasking
Viper3 - Destroy both runways at El Arish.

Mako3 - Destroy El Arish radar station.

Banshee5 - Destroy El Arish army camp.

Rumble7 - Protect the package from air threats.


Mission Success Criteria

Viper3
Mission Success shall be awarded for both runways out of action

Partial Success shall be awarded for one runway out of action

Mako3
Mission Success shall be awarded for both towers and the satcom station destroyed

Partial Success shall be awarded for destruction of the radar towers

Banshee5
Mission Success shall be awarded for destruction of the ammo dump and three warehouses

Partial Success shall be awarded for destruction of the ammo dump and one warehouse

Hog3
Mission Success shall be awarded for a maximum of one package losses to enemy aircraft.

Partial Success shall be awarded for a maximum of two package losses to enemy aircraft.

Good hunting.
