YES SUR!!
Intelligence indicates that several battalions are joining in the border town of Sur, and HQ is concerned that a breakout could be eminent. An SA-17 emplacement is due east of the town and may be a threat to the mission. Flight leads should discuss this threat and decide if SEAD support is needed (It was not a factor last week, but who knows).
We are tasked to destroy the ground forces in or around Sur.
Please note that while the package is tasked as Interdiction, a flight (or portion of a flight) may be tasked as SEAD/SWEEP to reduce air defenses and protect the package from enemy air.
The package will consist of 3 AI flights: objectives are:
- COWBOY1 – Destroy enemy ground units -- Departs from the 4329th @ Hatzerim -- Payload is free = currently loaded with AGM-65D
- LOBO1 – Destroy enemy ground units -- Departs from the 4329th @ Hatzerim -- Payload is free = currently loaded with AGM-65D
- FURY1 – Destroy enemy ground units -- Departs from the 4329th @ Hatzerim -- Payload is free = currently loaded with AGM-65D
Timings:
Flight Task TO PP TOT IDM VHF TACAN FL
COWBOY1 AI 20:35 20:47 20:53 1 1 11/74 200
LOBO1 AI 20:36 20:49 20:55 2 2 16/79 220
FURY1 AI 20:37 20:48 20:54 3 3 21/84 240
STP3 is placed as a BSGT opportunity. Friendly units are expected to move to Sur, declare targets if unsure.
Leads should decide if the attack is by flights or a package wheel.
Mission success:
COWBOY1: 50% units hit for ordnance expended PARTIAL = 33%. MF if Blue-on-blue.
LOBO1: 50% units hit for ordnance expended PARTIAL = 33%. MF if Blue-on-blue.
FURY1: 50% units hit for ordnance expended PARTIAL = 33%. MF if Blue-on-blue.
