Despite the considerable losses during the previous flight (Gecko was actually found alive by the SAR Team, hanging from his chute) the Squadron is determined to continue picking and shutting down Serbian ABs close to the FLOT to reduce red air activity.
This time we shall target yet another MiG 29 nest:Zeljava AB

Fig 1: Zeljava AB map

Fig 2: Mountain shelter for fighters at Zeljava AB
Apart from the MiG the AB is protected by an SA-3 battalion (no EWR) and an AAA battalion. From west and SW a ridge is sheltering the runways - as it has 2 parallel but shifted tarmacs (140/320)

Fig 3: SA-3
The AAA artillery should be elimninated, preferably with the SA-16 team.. The Low Blow of the SA-3 has to be silenced too, before the OCA can destroy the 2 runways (picture below)

Maybe the terrain can help the stike group:
