Flight Role: Interdiction
Lobo31: "Griffin" AA=0 AG=10 RTB
Lobo32: "Floyd" AA=0 AG=7 RTB
Lobo33: "Flying Stone" AA=0 AG=5 RTB
Mission Outcome: MS
A short but fun mission to destroy as many ground units on the road NW of Mandumi. We had out artillery targets and went in to attack in trail formation. I and FS had a load out of 6 x ADM 65D and 4 x CBU97. Floyd had 6 x AGM 65D and 2 x AGM 65G. All ordnance was used.
We attacked in a wagonwheel at 16,000 feet and killed a lot of targets both at our target SP and also slightly NW on the road.
The results were wrong in the briefing. Mine showed I had fired 12 Mavericks! Watching the ACMI shows that FS killed 5 targets, not the aero that cam up on the debrief, so five of my kills have gone to him.
Good discipline in the attack and good SA all around.

Flight Role: Interdiction
Falcon31: "Veiland" AA=0 AG=7 RTB
Falcon32: "Jack" AA=0 AG=7 RTB
Falcon33: "Simpson" AA=0 AG=4 RTB
Mission Outcome: MS
AG Loadout: 8xMavericks D model and Center Tank.
Trail formation right after takeoff due the the short distance to target area.
Climbed to FL15. 2&3 was briefed to do 360's as needed to create 5-8 nm separation between planes.
Attack was done at FL14000 with a A-LOW of 13.000ft in a clockwise wagon wheel (As to deconflict with Lobo3 operating slightly northwest of our station area)
I had briefed that due to the low threat enviroment, we would do at least 2 passes. There were a partial cloudcover that limited our first attack run (only got 2 mavs of the rails), also our whole opreation area blew up (Arty?) right after my first pass, so 2 & 3 had to look for targets further north.
Due to the close vicinity of friendly forces we declared the ground targets with Awacs (no friendly fire accidents afaik).
After we were Dakota(/Nevada) we established a north south cap 30nm east of bullseye and waited for Lobo3 (Panther3 was also capping at this point) to finish their AG.
After Lobo3 was done AG we all RTB and Falcon3 slotted in for landing behind Panther3 which were fuel critically.
Safely on the gound we spent some time driving through fences, across unpaved ground, looking for the rest of the pack.
Our debriefing scores looked correct, but we also didnt have anyone crashing and rejoining.
As for the communications what I heard was good, but then again i was on UHF 4 for half the op ... (ahem) |

Flight role: Interdiction
Python 21 "Ironman2 AA=2 AG=6 RTB
Python 22 "Poppy" AA=0 AG=0 CTD before reaching kill area
Python 23 "Zipgun" AA=1 AG=6 RTB
mission success
ALL plane 4 slammers 8 Mavs no need for tanks due to Squadron move to Kimpo
30sec take off spacing maintained in flight - assigned steer point kill areas - went tactical almost as soon as flight gear up.
Poppy CTD'd not sure why before he got to his kill area.
Ironman and Zipgun got of all 8 mavs then went CAP at A25 North of Flot until bingo then called in we were RTB, landed without incident. 3 number An2's were shot down using slammers and guns.
Good flight - not at all a boring mission through lack of Migs - nice to help the dog faces with out the imminent threat of getting your arse shot off !!!
Lets keep this Camp going .. but some colour might help ;0) ... any colour but green and black !!!
