The mission provides a realistic training environment featuring carrier operations, air-to-air refueling, and ground targets for practice and exercises.
Designed for flexible use, it supports both fixed-wing and rotary aircraft and is ideal for realistic peacetime operations, training sorties, and multiplayer sessions. Target Smoke and all F10-drawings can be shown or hidden via the #COMMS menu. Winter and Summer is available as separate missions and can also be switched via #COMMS.

-------------DESCRIPTION-------------
*Welcome to nowhere.*
You have just arrived at Mount Pleasant Airbase, where you’ll be stationed for a while to conduct training across a variety of assets and mission profiles.
This mission template provides a realistic snapshot of the modern military setup of the Falkland Islands, offering a structured yet flexible peacetime training environment. All airbases support dynamic spawning. For single-player use, please launch the mission as a private server to enable dynamic slots, or alternatively edit the mission files to add the aircraft of your choice.
To ensure smooth performance, the total number of placed units has been deliberately kept low (under 300 units).
The mission can be customized via the #COMMS menu. Available options include:
* Marking ground targets with smoke at the three training ranges: Onion, Arrow, and Second Creek
* Toggling the separate mission editor drawings on or off (General Info, AAR Info, Aerodrome Info, Range Info)
* Switching the environment between summer and winter variants
Additionally, a target drone is actively operating over the Second Creek range, providing a dynamic element for air-to-ground training.
