Note: This mission takes place after Cage the Bear.
After rebuffing Russia's opening salvo, allied forces have initiated a counter-attack. With NATO and Georgia's limited in-theatre resources, we have managed to organise 2 ground strike groups that have begun advancing westward. Our objective is to bruise the Russian invasion force, deter future aggression, and test their resolve.
Your targets are a number of ships that are moving men and materiel to the battlezone. 3 Russian dry cargo vessels, with a single frigate escort are heading southeast at 14 knots.
Playtime: 1 hr.
Required Skills:
- Cold Start
- Harpoon Targeting
- Fast Carrier Breaks
- Case I Landings with Traffic
- Radar Knowledge
- Radio Controls
- Rearm/Refuel
Start up, take off from Cat 1 and launch your Harpoons at Waypoint 1 to sink the ships. You can use Waypoint 2 as a Harpoon Turn Point. A number of allied aircraft will be sortied for support.
Once your Harpoons are off the rails, return to the carrier for re-tasking. Ensure you order your wingmen to fire their Harpoons (Mission and RTB) before you do (otherwise they may not shoot).
4 Harriers are ready to assist. Use your Radio F10 to order the strike. The fleet will provide additional anti-ship missile support.
Good luck.
