This is a simple practice mission for the Mirage 2000c.  Must be able to use ALL of the systems currently available (1st beta) in the Mirage including the ILS Synthetic runway view.  This is also my first mission.  Please let me know if you like it..

Part two of operation Kano: bad weather makes life difficult for your AFAC and your CAS flights alike, and you may run into some unexpected aerial company... regardless Gadauta must be taken and it must be taken tonight lest the insurgency is able to fortify their Northern positions.

I created this weather mod add some more variety to our weather presets. Special thanks to Taz1004 for letting me use his lightning shader edits!

2/24/2024 - Updated to version 7

You need OVGME to use this mod as is, or you can extract the file and copy it over yourself.

Install to DCS OpenBeta CORE (NOT DCS/SAVED GAMES)

This mod comments out some lines of lua (and add a few more) that couple the 33ft and 1600ft winds so you can winds correctly without being forced to have insane winds at 1600ft.

Also you can use the 33ft winds to make the sea state crazy but have normal winds just above that.

Note: Whilst this decouples them, inside the DCS engine it still has a gradient from the 33ft going up.

It's not possible to add in the wind direction tool for the 1600ft winds unfortunately because the DCS DLL doesn't have the appropriate function hooks. :(

Just want to add, if you do a reciprocal wind for the 6600ft wind that is equal or greater than the 33ft wind, the WEATHER.DLL will skew the gradient such that the wind at 1600ft will be virtually gone and the winds aloft will be strong as will the surface wind.

I was doing some research for an update to DCS-WAIFU. I am using these files to see the differences between the mission cloud settings, but you can use them for whatever you want! The included files are for the Caucuses map, but you can edit the [theater] in the "mission" file to whatever map you desire. Enjoy!

On August 5th, at approximately 1800 hrs, a massive explosion rocked Beirut devastating a 6 mile radius around the city’s port.  It was initially believed to be an industrial accident that ignited 2,700 metric tons of ammonium nitrate stored in a port warehouse. However, after further investigation officials have discovered traces of explosives which clearly indicate the incident was a planned attack.  Following this initial explosion on August 5th, militia groups have stormed the city and taken control of the airport and other strategic facilities.  Furthermore, reports indicate weapons and equipment used by the militia being traced to Russia.

In addition, Coalition Forces monitoring activities in the area have seen Russian backed forces in Syria shift military assets closer to the Lebanon border.
