- Version 2.5 -
This is an "all-in-one" style ground attack mission that has the ability to offer variation. It can also be flown as either a single player or multiplayer mission.
Every flyable aircraft and helicopter in DCS is available to be flown via the Dynamic Spawn tab. A list of Rescue helicopters are available via the traditional spawn method. These helicopters are the only ones that can complete the mission objectives within the “Helo Missions” section. More on that later.
The basis of this mission is such that you start on the ramp in the Krasnodar area. And depending on the direction you fly, you activate different levels of difficulty. Each individual level/area then has 4 different missions inside of it that it randomly selects from. They each contain 30+ ground units, ranging from lightly unarmed vehicles to tanks, and a few hardened structures, and some AAA/SAMs in the harder sectors.
The levels/areas of difficulty are: Easy, Medium, Hard, Very Hard. Each of these containing their own 4 random missions.
There are 4 Strike missions. These missions are basically a "get-in & get-out" style strike.
Lastly, there are also 5 Helicopter missions. Fixed wing aircraft can fly them as well, but for four of them (The Medevac, Crash Site, Roof Top Rescue, and Sling Load Savior missions) a “Rescue” traditionally spawned helicopter is required. The triggers are set up for only those helo’s to perform the needed Rescue. For the Crash Site and Roof Top missions, I'd recommend that it be flown with at least 2 players.
You can activate a mission in 1 of 2 ways. The first way, like previously stated, is you simply fly towards one of the areas of difficulty, and it will randomly sel ect one of four missions inside that area. The second way is through the F10 radio options menu. You can sel ect any mission, fr om any difficulty area, this way. This is also how you sel ect the Strike and Helicopter Missions. <--- This is the only way to sel ect the Strike and Helicopter Missions.
Custom sound files (108 of them, hence the file size), done by myself, give in-game briefings for each and every possible mission. There are also 10 Briefing Pages, and 6 of those are also accessible through the Kneeboard.
