v1.2 (ported from my F-16C version of this mission)

JULY 19TH 2011 - TURKEY - INCIRLIK AB

Step in your F/A-18C (board #407) and get ready for your next sortie...
Today you'll fly CAS over the city of Homs, in aid to our allied troops. Hammer6 will provide SEAD cover and Chalice5 will be active GCI.

Just another day in paradise...


Designer notes:
-No mods required
-Duration ±1 to 1,5hour
-Difficulty average
-ATC is mainly done semi-automatic (player input is sometimes asked)
-AAR is optionally (or a must if you're AB happy)
-Some TGP skills will enhance the experience
-Incirlik can be a bit performance heavy, but the rest of the mission is very VR friendly (I only tested in VR)
-Mission specific kneeboard included

Hi,
For pilots who are into air-to-ground missions, I've created the following kneeboard cards.
I've focused on types of units that are most common on our 132nd Virtual Wing's trainings and combat missions.
I specifically avoided SAMs/AAAs etc as those air-threats are already addressed by other content makers (Well, I ran across a few while googling )
The intent here is to assist in ID'ing what the pilot is seeing so as to be able to tell a friend fr om a foe, and to have a clear idea about the type of ground force he (or the JTAC he's supporting) is up against.
I hope it would be of assistance.

Update Jan 8th 2021 : Added 3 cards covering air-defense vehicles: Shilka, SA-8, SA-15, SA-19, SA-9 and SA-13

Fly safe,
Assaf.

This mod will allow JTAC's to read out your target coordinates in the format of your choosing instead of just the grid reference, allowing you to easily create a new waypoint at the target, or enter them into a JDAM or JSOW for a highly accurate strike. Now there's no more need to stop flying and convert the coordinates to the proper format, you can simply find your targets no matter where they are on the map and then take them out with precision. Passes the integrity check as well!

*Updated* F-15C & F-15E JASDF - 32-8082 liveries. New with japanese camo and markings.

Welcome to my 8th mission and my first mission for a fixed wing aircraft.

Operation Rescue under fire is loosely based on the Spanish movie "Rescue under fire" and lets you participate in what the AV-8B N/A was designed for - night attack.

The story:
A Humvee of an armoured patrol struck a mine near the Omani town of Hansi. A medevac CH-47 was dispatched to the site, but it rolled over due to hitting soft ground upon landing. Thankfully this did not cause any further casualties.
Problem is, we are not supposed to be in Oman, so central command decided to retrieve the helicopter. Insurgents are threatening the crash site and the troops on location are in urgent need of close air support.

Involves night flying, night attack based on IR pointer target designation, adherance to ROE, avoidance of collateral damage, night/dawn midair refueling. Persian Gulf map is required.

A simple nose art that serves as a tribute to Half Life.

JSGME ready improved PDL lights (Pilot Director Lights) for the KC-135 tanker (and MPRS). Especially useful for VR users. It's a compromise of making the textures more intense while increasing the contrast of the others as well as darkening them a bit. Unfortunately, the a2refueling approach lights aren't really lights in DCS, just a customized texture. Now, with this modification, it's much easier to see the lighting on the tanker. Good luck in A2R!

The 48th Fighter Wing's 'Boss Bird' aircraft! Originally assigned to the 494th, this aircraft became the 48FW flagship aircraft some time in early 2020.

The markings represent the three squadrons that made up the 48FW at that time - the 492nd Bolars/Madhatters (F-15E), the 493rd Grim Reapers (F-15C/D), and the 494th Panthers (F-15E).
